President Trump dedicated his Saturday morning to tweeting his way through the past week's news, forgiving his new communications director for not supporting him sooner, and repeating that Donald Trump Jr. is a good boy while Hillary Clinton "acid washed" emails. So, normal catching-up stuff, but also he's finally reached a conclusion in his quest to see if he can pardon himself.

Despite the naked certainty of this tweet, there's not consensus about whether a president can pardon himself, partly because none of them have been desperate enough to try it. But, presumably someone has told the president that he can pardon his way out of anything special counsel Robert Mueller might dig up, and now he's trying to get everyone else comfortable with the idea.

Trump is keeping up his schtick that the only bad people are people who report on bad things about his administration, and he's apparently miffed about a Washington Post story suggesting his least favorite attorney general hasn't been super honest. Here we see Trump trying to veeeeery discreetly slip in mention that his pardoning power is infallible by loading a tweet with that idea plus LEAKS and FAKE NEWS. So everybody can rest easy because the president has assured us that if he, Junior, Jared Kushner, or anyone else equally sketchy did anything wrong, they'll never have to deal with any consequences.
