The pardon would come from Pence, not the SDNY.twocoach wrote: ↑Sat Oct 10, 2020 2:08 pmNo way would SDNY take that deal with the way things are going.Sparko wrote: ↑Sat Oct 10, 2020 1:46 pm There is a viral tweet he is asking to resign in return for a pardon and leniency from the SDNY. That is ass-backwards because a Pardon would innocculate him from the SDNY. The State of NY on the other hand is preparing an indictment for various tax and foundation scams, but would not play a role in a resignation in all likelihood. I do think he should resign and get his defense attorneys arrayed. Or just isolate and try to survive COVID. The tweet does sound like wistful thinking knowing the yam yeti.

Can a potus even pardon a state matter?
Re: who ya got?
Didn’t think so.
And doesn’t someone have to be convicted of charges before they can be pardoned, either way?
I kinda doubt SDNY would speed shit up to appease potus’s usual desired 24-48 hour gratification schedule.
The more I think about it the more it doesn’t add up - which is to say, the more legit it sounds like something potus might actually try.

He'll never quit. He fully believes that he and his lawyers can bullshit/bully their way out of any trouble because history has proven that to be true so far.ousdahl wrote: ↑Sat Oct 10, 2020 3:41 pm Didn’t think so.

Phil knight the billionaire has a socialism son. That is extreme.
Re: who ya got?
Of course a billionaires son is all about being coddled and having everything served on a platter.
Like those endlessly protesting in his home state of Portland Oregon, the proudsocialist ain’t worked a day in his life.

Re: who ya got?

Hear me out on healthcare thing. I think US should have a system similar to Hong Kong. Healthcare provided by government at little to no cost, but you get basic doctors that graduate from a weaker med school like equivalent to kstate and basic coverages. You then pay for additional coverage through private sector if you want high end hospitals, doctors that graduate from KUMed, treatments, etc.
That way people are covered, but then you still have free market healthcare for those that want to pay extra and have extra stuff. No straight socialism, no straight capitalism. Take both and morph it into one big plan.

Neither party is doing right by a lot of people.
That’s cuz both major parties are in the pockets of corporations.
We need a people’s party.
