Will Trump try a pre-emptive pardon for himself and his accomplices?
Yup, that's the thought I woke up with. I need coffee.

He won't pardon the others, because they could be forced to testify due to that immunity. No joy for Trump.
However, Pence could pardon them all, as a condition of resignation. That's how Trump will leave office, I'm sure. And he won't be prosecuted for all of this. Still, he'll be gone and unable to do something unthinkable.
