Also, aren't all the people who say Trump should be preemptively pardon, saying he us guilty. So far, what is he guilty of to be pardoned for?
Only reason for desanctimonious talking pardons is that he is thinking that if he can convince people he will pardon Trump if he is judged guilty, it improves his chances of winning the presidential primary.
i.e. desantis thinks people will vote for him in the belief desantis will pardon Trump if he is imprisoned.
Sorry.... the ‘republican’ party is dead, because they refused to control the debt, and has shown no interest in actually going through impeachment against the biden admin.
