Correct.

And even this Supreme Court wouldn’t allow him to pardon himself, as it would create a lawless and unimpeachable monarch. (He’d still get, like, three votes though.)

Fulton County, Georgia briefly posted the criminal charges against Trump on their web site, which was quickly taken down, but Reuters grabbed a copy before they did and posted them here: https://www.reuters.com/legal/us-state- ... 023-08-14/

(edit: I originally called her a judge... doh)
