Trump Not Expected to Pardon Himself

“White House officials don’t expect President Trump to pardon himself, family members or close aides, but clemency is in the works for a famous rapper and others,” Bloomberg reports.

“Trump is expected to announce a list of pardons on Tuesday — his final full day in office — and had discussed with aides the possibility of blanket pardoning himself, in anticipation he might later be charged with federal crimes. Trump has previously claimed such power, though it’s a matter of legal dispute and has never before been attempted by a president.”
