    Meh, the good thing about such a pardon is that it can just be ignored by the next government, just like his government ignored everything that happened before

    • That probably wouldn’t happen. What would happen is that it would go to the courts whether a president can really pardon himself or not. His corrupt SCOTUS might actually say they can, but regardless it would probably take long enough that he’d be dead and not caring.
