I doubt he'll get a pardon anymore than the other Trump jailbirds have gotten one. They were useful to Trump once, but no longer are. He couldn't give a rat's patootie about them now.

But I can’t imagine LOSER45 pardoning Gates now or ever - Gates is no doubt high on his enemies list, he’d no doubt LOVE to lock him up

If Trump was going to pardon him why wouldn't he have done it already? Stone has nothing left to offer Trump. Remember, Trump is not loyal to anyone. Stone served his purpose and Trump will let him rot.

Lying to Congress, obstructing justice, and witness tampering are crimes now? Since when? How is that even fair to poor Roger? He should move for a change of venue to the Senate. There would lots of sympathetic ears there for him.

Trump has openly committed all of those crimes, and more.

It's clear that he can never afford to leave office during his remaining lifetime.
