So Trump wants to pardon himself and his family\friends\co conspirators and is once again trying to derail an investigation against him. Get this idiot out of office.
He was asking out of curiosity. He obviously wants the pointless investigation to be out of the news.
Spicer just resigned.....they're falling like dominos....Trump's head lawyer just quit....looks like the stands are emptying halfway through the first qtr in DC
Another point - a presidential pardon only covers federal crimes, so an individual can still be prosecuted by a state. It also does not cover civil actions.
The Russians are letting his administration bleed like a stuck pig. After this is completely revealed, I'll bet Sessions resigns. Spicer was smart to get put of this BS when he could.

He has full power to pardon himself for things he said he never did but that would not be a crime if he had done them.
"While all agree the U.S. President has the complete power to pardon, why think of that when only crime so far is LEAKS against us. FAKE NEWS,"
against us? c'mon......if the white house can't handle extreme vetting, the citizens of the country just might...Trump obviously isn't very good at building a team that we can trust by any stretch of the imagination.....The president is supposed to work for us, not against us......if you don't see him selling out our standing around the globe, you're not paying attention. So far he's touted Putin and Xi Jinping.....two leaders who gained power under communist rule....then the Saudi Royal Family ......if these are our allies going forward......things have turned upside down...FAKENEWS is not an explanation.....what we have is a FAKEPRESIDENT.....unqualified, undignified and a guy who for his own popularity will go after anyone questioning him or his policies......what the fuck has Trump actually done? So far he's killed off my families healthcare plan come 2018...back to the drawing board......
It seems to me Mueller is doing his job just fine. http://thehill.com/policy/national-security/343164-trump-launches-all-out-assault-on-mueller-probe Trump’s lawyers have denied that the White House is investigating Mueller’s team, but have not denied that they will object if they feel Mueller is straying outside of his mandate.
