Trump: "Very Unlikely" He Would Parson Himself, If Elected President

Donald Trump is speaking out about potentially issuing himself a pardon in an exclusive interview with nbc's Meet the press. The former president spoke about what he would do if he won another term in office. Here's what he had to say, Mr President, if you were re elected, would you pardon yourself? I could have pardoned myself. Do you know what I was given an option to pardon myself? I could have pardoned myself when I left, people said, would you like to pardon yourself? I had a couple of attorneys that said you can do it if you want. I had some people that said it would look bad if you do it because I think it would look terrible. I said, here's the story. These people are thugs, horrible people, fascists, marxists, sick people. Trump went on to say he does believe he is being unfairly treated by the justice department and that all charges against him are politically motivated. He also brought up the indictment against Hunter Biden noting that he believes Hunter Biden is being held to different standards. He said he had a plea deal. That was the deal of the century, the art of the deal, you could write a book on it. The former President's Meet the press interview is set to air in full on Sunday.
