The president in that tweet stated something that is rather unremarkable, that is, under the Constitution, Article II, Section 2, the President has the authority to pardon. But, I want to be clear on this, George, we have not, and continue to have not, conversations with the President of the United States regarding pardons. Pardons have not been discussed and pardons are not on the table. With regard to the issue of a president pardoning himself, there’s a big academic discussion going on right now, an academic debate. You’ve got Professor Tribe arguing one point, you’ve got Professor Turley arguing another point, and while it makes for interesting academic discussions, let me tell you what the legal team is not doing. We’re not researching the issue, because the issue of pardons is not on the table. There is nothing to pardon from.
Well there you go then. This is all just made up fake news that is not backed up by any fac.......wait what just happened?

Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace asked Scaramucci why Trump tweeted about his “complete power” to pardon last week if no crimes had been committed.
“Why even talk about pardons?” Wallace wondered.
“This is one of those things about Washington, the convolution and the nature of things,” Scaramucci explained. “I’m in the Oval Office with the president last week and we were talking about that, he says he brought that up, but he doesn’t have to be pardoned, there’s nobody around him that has to be pardoned. He was just making the statement about the power of the pardon.”
“Now, all of the speculation and all of the spin is he’s going to pardon himself,” he added. “The president does not need to pardon himself. And the reason he doesn’t need to pardon himself is he hasn’t done anything wrong.”
Sooooo Mooch was in the Oval Office talking about the subject that his attorney swears has never come up?
Well good thing we got that cleared up.
By the way his Mooch guy seems to essentially see his job as similar to the job performed by the spokesman for the North Korean dictator.
Oh this should be fun.

In other words his Trumpiness is perfect in every way, and any claims to the contrary are to be ignored as "fake news."there’s been a lot of lies from the White House but “trump is a phenomenal athlete” might take the cake http://pic.twitter.com/ru5YIfZvCi— jordan 🌹🌹 (@JordanUhl) July 21, 2017
