Also thrashes all members of Congress on Jan. 6 Committee: ‘Honestly, they should go to jail’

PALM BEACH, Florida – In the wake of Joe Biden’s presidential pardon of his son Hunter, President-elect Donald Trump was asked if he will pardon himself in connection with any legal cases remaining against him.
Trump answered the question from NBC’s Kristen Welker on “Meet the Press” Sunday morning.
“I didn’t do anything wrong,” Trump said.
“I was given the option, and the lawyers told me, very specific. I don’t have to go into who, but very high up in in the administration said, ‘Sir, if you pardon yourself, you’re going to look guilty, and you did nothing wrong.’ Oh, I had that option.”
“I could have saved myself a lot of legal fees. But it turned out that I was right. Look at what’s gone on. Everything’s being dropped. I still have a Fani Willis, Fani, a total hoax. That’s a total hoax. It’s all being dropped.”
