    Who is going to stop Trump from pardoning himself?

      He cannot pardon himself on a dismissed case.

        Again, who is going to stop him? The presidential pardon is wide reaching, and no one has ever tried to pardon themselves before so there’s no legal precedent. You think this supreme court is gonna stop him?

        Also, he absolutely can pardon for something that was dismissed. Nixon got pardoned for something he was never even charged with.
