    Not if trump blanket pardons. Say they move to impeach trump, he leverages the pardon to have those who would otherwise be court mashalled murder the legislator.

      Trump’s power to pardon extends only to federal prosecution. Not state.

        I certainly am not the one to parse what state crime would be leveraged but while maybe true I’d need some more clarification before I outright agree.
