He is not planning on leaving, ever.

But if we do ever take back power, "Presidential Pardon" needs to be ignored. Sure, I understand the implications of that, but nonetheless it needs to be done. We've made the mistake the mistake time and again of NOT holding them accountable, and as a result it has only emboldened them to break the law without remorse.
