Sunday, as part of his “Gotcha!” segment, MSNBC “PoliticsNation” host Al Sharpton sounded off on the possibility of President Donald Trump pardoning some of his former advisers and associates.
After suggesting the president could try to pardon himself, Sharpton said Trump “and his cronies will be held accountable for their many crimes.”
“I have some advice for the president and his lackeys: don’t count your turkeys before they hatch,” Sharpton advised. “Just like the turkey pardon by the president this week which will suffer a shortened lifespan due to pre-pardoned activities, the villains in the Trump administration cannot be granted a total reprieve with the presidential pardon because the President of the United States can only pardon federal crimes. He has absolutely no power over state charges, and nearly everyone in the Trump orbit is facing state-level liability.”
