As expected, Cannon is giving Trump what he wants.

    There’s a certain catch 22 with presidential pardons though: the pardoned accepts their guilty verdict, they are just absolved of the legal punishment phase.

    I don’t think Trump could get over that first hurdle, though he is best characterized as playing both sides on anything that benefits him, so I’m sure he’ll try.

      he would just lie and say that accepting a pardon from himself isn’t admitting guilt, he had to do it for <insert stupid reason>.
