    Not to dive too deep into the minutia here; but 'target' and 'subject' have two different meanings in the context of these investigations.

    I don't think DJT understands the difference so I won't bother diving into it, though.

    Meantime in NZ, we have a pregnant unmarried Prime Minister, and there aren't legions of people lined up around the block to frown at her.

    Oh, I know there is a difference, but I agree he probably doesn't.

    ...and now: DJT considering "full" pardon of Jack Johnson (convicted in the Jim Crow era by an all-white jury, and also, he's dead). Reportedly per a suggestion by Sylvester Stallone.

    Now, as batshit crazy as this is, it leads me to two hypotheses:
    1: Stallone is a Trump supporter, which saddens me immensely. After all, all he wanted was something to eat.
    2: Stallone is more intelligent than Trump, and he's playing him, to see if he's actually cracked enough to posthumously pardon someone, merely on a suggestion of a celebrity.

    Either way, it's yet another step (jump) down the uncharted path of "rules don't apply anymore". I wonder how long until he gives him self a national holiday. Except that it's only observed by DC and corporation execs. Everybody else works for no pay.

    To be fair, there have been calls to pardon Johnson for a long time.

    I'm still surprised that they haven't found anything to pin on DJT yet...

    But, it's not like Pence would be a better option. 😢

    Pence could possibly be worse... The GOP loves him, whereas they "only" put up with Trump. Pence could probably push some very backwards stuff through.

    Pence is a fucking crackpot.

    BUt, again, I don't think he'd be as bad, internationally, as DJT. We'd just be fucked backwards domestically.
