Can’t pardon him for things.he hasn’t been charged with.
What crime was Nixon charged with?
Well, of course you can. Dontcha know that if a certain person merely touches a Confidential document(and certainly if he writes memos on said document and gives it away to any Tom, Dick or Sally) or brings it home (even if he never, ever saw the confidential document before) it loses its magical “confidential” status? It’s the same magical principal.

Don’t think that is correct. While I’m not an attorney, nor constitution scholar, I seem to recall Ford pardoned Nixon before any charges of any kind were levied against Nixon. I believe the working was similar to being pardoned for ANY crimes for which he may be charged. If the Republican Senators of the 70s had the ethics of today’s Democrat Senators, he probably would have been impeached but not convicted and removed from office.
Make Biden allocute his specific crimes for which he is being pardoned. Then, if Trump gets in office, have the DOJ confiscate the ill-gotten booty. Let’s see how Jill and the rest of them act then.
Uh, yes he can. Read history re: Richard Nixon.
