    New: @TedCruz says he suggested @DineshDSouza pardon to Trump while they were riding together to @NRA meeting last month in Dallas. Cruz told Trump the pardon would be “very much along the same lines of Scooter Libby.” https://www.texastribune.org/2018/06/01/cruz-details-dinesh-dsouza-pardon-donald-trump/ …

        And again, the man said slaves were well taken care of, that 9/11 attackers were brave, that Obama was motivated by post-colonial hatred of America and that Democrats are Nazis. They should be ashamed of the pardon, not fighting for credit.

        The pardon is a prospective message. The fact that it is D’Souza simply suits that message. It is not about justice, or being deserved.

        To put it another way: to announce that you intend to pardon anyone caught up in current investigations *could be* considered obstruction of justice. Pardoning a Republican convicted of election-related crime, not-so-much.

        It was 100% obvious when he said that, that the exact opposite was true. Most people get better with practice, but he's still a prolific yet terrible liar.

        This ploy ain’t gonna work. Sorry boys, Trump cannot pardon Cohen or Manifort without being immediately charged with obvious obstruction and/or witness tampering (although enough evidence for both already exists).
