surely he wouldn’t have to pardon himself, he’s done nothing wrong....🙄🙄

'Ghost busters' on his ass, into perpetuity. No, reason to smile. He has done more damage, then OSB.

All at a big price tag I’m sure! 😡😡😡

Let's hope the Biden and Haris duo can have them recharged. Any US President should leave office once the votes are counted and a winner is announced like is done all around the world. Not weeks later to cause all sorts of mischief like Trump has.

What's the bet he pardons that sack of shit Ghislaine Maxwell 😡

Obama will be a little nervous with all the declassified documents being released haha...

Pardon Julian Assange
