Thus in today’s debates, the original intent regarding the pardon power should contradict, even in the minds of conservative lawyers and judges, Donald Trump’s insistence on his absolute right to pardon even himself. It would be an unprecedented claim of unprecedented power that would, as George Mason feared, destroy the republic.
