The current President of the United States Donald Trump is considering the possibility in the last days of his presidency to pardon himself and members of his family.
This was reported by The New York Times, citing its own sources.
According to the publication, after Election Day, Trump raised the issue of his pardon in several conversations with his aides.
Trump has reportedly been exploring the possibility of pardons for members of his family, including Donald Trump's sons, Junior, Eric, and daughter Ivanka.
According to the publication, in this way, he could try to protect himself from possible prosecution after the end of his presidential term.
However, as The New York Times notes, such a move could become a dangerous precedent that demonstrates the superiority of the head of state before the law.
Recall that after the storming of the Capitol by Trump supporters, U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called Donald Trump a “very dangerous man” and called for his immediate removal from power.
