U.S. President Donald Trump at this point is opting not to issue a pardon for himself as he prepares an expansive list of more than 100 pardons and commutations for release on Tuesday, a source familiar with the effort said.

White House advisers have said Trump has privately debated with advisers whether to take the extraordinary step of issuing a pardon for himself but some administration officials have cautioned Trump against a self-pardon because it would make him look guilty.

Trump was impeached by the Democratic-led House of Representatives last week on charges of inciting the storming of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 by pro-Trump protesters. His case is to face a Senate trial and if convicted, he could be disqualified from seeking another run for the presidency in 2024. Trump, who has already issued two waves of pardons in the past month, met advisers on Sunday to finalize a list of more than 100 pardons and commutations, the source said.

I'll believe it when I don't see it.

They should make it a rule that if you pardon someone you have to read it out loud on camera, 'I Donald J. Trump pardon me, Donald J. Trump, from crimes that I, or you, me... camera, person, tv'

If this 😈 is fighter against deep state and pizza abusers, why then he pardons criminals that he supposedly fights against? 🤔

last full day - good riddance - don't let the aircraft door hit you in the ass as you go ...

Lets hope the media is not pardoned.

THE TRUMP DIFFERENCE: Trump's pardons are not to 'correct injustice' or 'demonstrate deserved mercy'. Instead, Trump grants them to 'reward fealty' & encourage continued silence'. cdnpoli uspoli USPolitics Trump

Why don’t you add StevenAvery and his nephew to the list!! We all know they are innocent and the police were corrupt in their case! Again another example privilege.. and it’s the least you could do!

Pardons do not have to be announced, even though they historically are shared with the public. There is the very good chance corrupt Trump will pardon himself, his family, and his inner circle of criminals in secrecy.
