No worries. Trump has a couple of pardons in his pocket for them.

Potus can’t pardon non-federal charges.

Glad we got that solved. Good to know Amy’s not so important after all in the USSC.

The point is, a Trump pardon is NOT good enough. Sure it will be a temporary fix for this couple but what happens after Trump’s 2nd term if a democrat wins the White House?

President has no power to pardon anyone on state charges. When Texas was getting ready to execute a Mexican murderer, Mexico insisted he be pardoned. They didn’t understand our federal system. Bush couldn’t pardon him, nor order the governor of Texas to pardon him.

One reason why NY Atty. General is going after the Trump family is because she knows Trump has no power to help them. NY also recently passed a law allowing the state to prosecute people who Trump has pardoned who committed their crimes in NY.

Now Governor Parsons has promised a pardon, but in MO the conviction has to happen first. The St. Louis prosecutor is a piece of work. She was successful in hounding Governor Greitens out of office on charges which turned out to be bogus. She is now claiming that the current investigation of her is racist and has just lost a lawsuit against just about everyone in St. Louis who has spoken out against her. She easily won her democratic primary, but she does have a Republican running against her.
