Can Trump Legally Pardon Himself and His Children? @alternet

Can Trump Legally Pardon Himself and His Children? @alternet: The president's powers are vast, but they are not limitless. Was it legal for Ronald Reagan to pardon George Steinbrenner? Was it legal for Richard Nixon to pardon Jimmy Hoffa? Was it legal for Bill Clinton to pardon Patty Hearst? Yes, yes and yes.Yet presidential pardon power is vast, but not limitless. As the Department of Justice makes crystal clear, the presidential pardon power does not extend to crimes that violate the laws of any of the fifty states.
