He'll either "pardon" himself or resign and get Vance to pardon him. For any state crimes, we'll be told that America needs to "move on" and "heal" and "forgive and forget" because that's what we do when rich and powerful (mostly) men do wrong. That, and most other rich and powerful folks don't have the appetite to punish like folks. All that money and influence, and not a spine between them.

Remember when we talked about Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rove...so many fucking wastes of air, all getting tried for war crimes? LOL, yeah, good stuff. How early 2000's of us, such good times.

At least 2 tiers of justice, people. Don't you ever forget it.
