Regardless of who wins the election Obama will pardon Hillary.
Obama’s presidential power to pardon expires January 20, 2017.
Why would she have to be formally charged or indicted with any crime or necessarily all of the crimes that have been mentioned prior to that date?
I assume Obama will give her a blanket pardon like Ford did Nixon.
A blanket pardon covers any and all crimes and halts criminal prosecution, for life? that can’t be possible

Well then, I say “Do it Barry,”
Do it. Do it now. Make the announcement from the Rose Garden this afternoon.
Make it a blanket pardon for all crimes Her Feloniousness may have committed going all the way back to the moment of conception.
I for one- can’t think of a better way of nuking Her candidacy and destroying BillyJed, GrannyFace and ChelseaMay Grifters forever. Do it, Barry!
chapter and verse, please

Article I § 2 of the United States Constitution gives the House of Representatives the sole power to impeach (make formal charges against) and Article I § 3 gives the Senate the sole power to try impeachments. Article II § 4 of the Constitution provides as follows:
“The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.”
There is nothing that specifies when the crimes or misdemeanors shall have happened.
He will wait until after the election, like you said it would nuke her candidacy.
