    Judge Florence Pan saying: “You’re saying a president could sell pardons, could sell military secrets, could tell SEAL Team Six to assassinate a political rival?”

    Very good question, and the answer is likely yes. If a citizen cannot be charged with violating criminal law by virtue of being the sitting president, that would create blanket immunity. If Trump wins, Zero Dark Brandon suddenly becomes a viable option.
