Dictator Donald Trump says 'I have the absolute right to PARDON myself'
President Donald Trump said Monday he has "the absolute right" to pardon himself — but added that he has "done nothing wrong." The tweet followed The New York Times' publication of a confidential letter over the weekend, in which Trump's lawyers argued to special counsel Robert Mueller that the president's broad powers mean he could not have obstructed justice.

My thoughts on this news
LOL, the reality show host in chief just does not give up, he is doubling down on the memo from his attorneys. He is going full blown dictator with this tweet. He really wants to be a dictator, he wants to be above the law and does not give a shit about democracy. Based on what he is saying here he thinks he could break any law he wants and pardon himself and there is nothing the courts could do about it. The law does not apply to king Trump. Is this the beginning of Fascism in America or are the American people finally waking up and are ready to take back control of their government. The government that was created for the people and by the people. Not for the wealthy to control the poor...

The US has been doing Fascism for a long time, so this is not "the beginning", we're way past that, but the indoctrinated Public never knew it and wouldn't understand anyway. Fascism is simply Corporations running the military via the government. That's certainly the case now, was with Obama, Dubya , Clinton, Bush 1, likely going back to Reagan, and probably beyond, but I don't know the older politics as well as the new yet.
Trump just closer represents the hideous Fascist Dictators of the past.
