U.S. Senator Mark Warner, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, warned President Donald Trump on Tuesday over a possible pardon for his former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort.
“Any attempt by the President to pardon Mr. Manafort or interfere in the investigation into his campaign would be a gross abuse of power and require immediate action by Congress,” Warner said in a statement.

Morons...why would Trump pardon Manafort?
Constitution = "gross abuse of power" when the GOP is in power. Anything goes when the leftists are in power.
Do It! Do it! See how far you get with impeachment! Your blue wave will be a tidy bowl flush.
Yawn.
How soon could the president pardon Manafort if he chose to do so? Right after a quilty verdict makes Manafort ‘a convict’?

Tonight, Trump could be pardoning him at this very moment.
He can pardon anybody he pleases and you cannot do a damn thing about it.
I remember the Puerto Rican terrorists pardoned bu Clinton on his last day in office. And they were not tax evaders, THEY KILLED PEOPLE,..................
He can commute the sentence. Not as good as a pardon, but, no jail time.
I hope the President pardons all these guys, not immediately, but after the November elections and call the pardons a Christmas present.
Senate Intelligence????
BWWWaaah...
There are but 5 or 6 Senators with “intelligence”.
Everyone who threatens President a Trump gets thrust with his own knife, so I guess we’ll find out soon enough what Mark Warner is so afraid of.
We're actually talking about tax filing problems from 2005 ... right?
PARDON Manafort - screw Mark Warren (POS 1st Class)
As opposed to Jerry Brown who openly pardons murderers?
Trump had better not stab himself in the eye with a sharp stick, or walk on cracks on the sidewalk, or spit on the white house lawn, cause if he does, peach fo fi is on!
What makes Mark Warner a key senator? Just because he isn’t quite as stupid as Pennsylvania’s village idiot Bob Casey, Jr.?
I double dare
Sen Mark Warner ( whose stepmother was Elizabeth Taylor) to go back & look at the long list of people that Bill Clinton Pardoned & those that Obama pardoned.
Sure thing, Markie. But when 0bama was in the WH and pardoning terrorists and gang members and Felons, he said nothing.
I’m in 2024 and you can go f*** yourself
