Hi there,
New York Attorney General: “[Trump] can preemptively pardon individuals, and the vast majority of legal scholars have indicated that he cannot pardon himself. What he could do is step down and allow the vice president -- Vice President Pence -- to pardon him.”
It’s no wonder this drastic action is now up for discussion: Donald Trump has been linked to an incredible list of illegal activity during his time in the White House, and the authorities are finally allowed to close in. The IRS is looking into his taxes, New York’s AG is looking into his business practices, and Congress is still looking into the full implications of the Mueller report -- meanwhile Trump, if he’s smart, is looking for somewhere to hide.
President-elect Biden has said he’ll leave any prosecution up to the Justice Department -- which, once Biden is in office, will actually do its job again instead of just defending Donald Trump. We want to know where the most engaged and politically-aware Americans stand on the issue so we know what to push for -- will you tell us what you think?
Should Donald Trump stand trial?
Thank you for making your voice heard.
