If he does pardon himself, I believe that means he can't take the 5th when asked about the things he's pardoned himself for? Which is going to be spectacular when he eventually gets deposed because you know he just can't help himself.
- tshaddox 6y agoWhy would he care that he can’t take the 5th, if he has pardoned himself and anyone else that he cares about who would be incriminated by his testimony?
- zimpenfish 6y agoI believe it's only a federal pardon - states (eg. NY) can still pursue him for anything they can justify. This is a good explanation - https://www.nytimes.com/article/trump-pardons.html https://www.nytimes.com/article/trump-pardons.html
