Isn’t impeachment a political act of removing someone from office, rather than a conviction of wrongdoing, and so you can’t pardon an impeachment because the law isn’t involved?  Help me out here

The constitution specifically exempts impeachments from the scope of presidential pardons.

Trump has his ***autopen*** ready for his pages of pardons.

The next Republican president in the 2030s will pardon absolutely everyone, even if they kick off Civil War 2 and kill half of the country. They have absolutely no shame, and absolutely roll around in that.

While he can’t pardon her for the impeachment, he can preemptively pardon her for federal crimes someone might want to pursue her for later(eg a dem admin in 2029). But I’d expect him to hold that pardon until he issues all his blanket pardons the last day he’s in office. He loses leverage with his underlings when they don’t need him for anything. The pardons will be, as trump likes to say, like nothing we’ve ever seen before.

He probably already has one.

The GOP is the only criminal organization in history that’s been able to provide unlimited Get Out of Jail Free cards to its flunkies.
