    I’m worried that this is getting dragged out so long that he might actually have a chance of becoming president again. If that happens, then couldn’t he just pardon himself?

      Two words. Constitutional Cris.

      That’s a joke by the way. As if those two words meant anything after his first term.

          I’m not underestimating him as much as I know there are other things in play today that were not in play then. The Republicans won’t nominate him. There would be too much fallout later. They will lose all footing in the future if they did that. And there has not been any president that won, lost, then won again.

            Sample size is too small to make any generalizations about this.
