Default Pardon? For what?

Maybe someone can help clarify for those who do not understand: for a long time Trump claims that no laws were broken and nothing unethical took place between him, his team and Russia. If so, why is he now mulling pardons? Pardon what?

Sounds like flatulence.
Just saying, pardon me, should be enough.

smart businessmen plan for all contingencies, or at least as many as possible. and while there i no evidence that trump or his team colluded with anyone to fix the election, as the liberals like to claim, there is the possibility that someone might pull a joh dean and lie through their teeth and cause real problems.

Trump tweeted about pardons. He brought it up -- No fake news there -- lots of discussions of why he would bring that up given that there is nothing anybody should need a pardon for....but he started it

Trump doesn't seem to understand that in order to accept a pardon---you don't have to---you have to admit wrong doing.

Actually I listened to Scaramucci today. He said that Trump had a brief conversation with staff about pardons, and then all of a sudden it's broadcast that he's discussing pardons. I couldn't believe my ears. So no, the sources are not anonymous. The source is Trump himself. He wants to know. Why else would this subject even arise? I never heard about the Bushes or Obama casually, out of nowhere, bring up the subject of pardons on the GP.
