[QUOTE="TLK Valentine, post: 74755175, member: 306134"] Normally I would as well, but the Constitution isn't specific. The Found Fathers, however, [B][I]were.[/I][/B] [URL='https://www.brookings.edu/blog/fixgov/2018/07/25/the-pardon-power-and-original-intent/']The pardon power and original intent[/URL] James Madison pointed out that when a President is impeached, he [I][B]loses[/B][/I] the power to pardon anyone connected to his impeachment, for obvious reasons. What is not clear is whether that lasts [I][B]only[/B][/I] for the duration of his impeachment, or if the injunction is permanent. Considering that a president, even if acquitted in impeachment, can still be tried for his "high crimes" [I][B]after[/B][/I] he leaves office, the latter would make sense. [/QUOTE]
