Attorney for the president Rudy Giuliani sat down with George Stephanopoulos of ABC’s “This Week” and addressed the question of whether or not President Trump will pardon himself.
JUST IN: Does Pres. Trump have the power to pardon himself?
"He's not, but he probably does," Rudy Giuliani tells @GStephanopoulos. "He has no intention of pardoning himself, but that doesn't say he can't." https://t.co/YQ29ClaVMa pic.twitter.com/jDXl1jOnuV
