Even more so when they pontificate on the rule of law, and that no one is above the law.
Kavanaugh: the president may pardon anyone, or decline to prosecute anyone . . . .because of policy objections to the law, among other reasons.
See that the laws are faithfully executed?
How is declining to prosecute - which I guess means ordering the Justice Department not to prosecute violators (all? any? some?) of law X - practically different from a totally unrestricted veto power?
How is it not a license for utterly arbitrary selective non-prosecution?
This really is a get out of jail free card for the president and his fellow criminals and lawbreaking executive browshirts and even murderers.
Of course Trump wants this guy on the court.
