If they're both gone, Pelosi is POTUS and I doubt she'll be pardoning anyone. LOL. Should Pence decide to resign, Trump could appoint any of his bootlickers who would probably pardon him if they ascended to the presidency. That's frightening, although they can't pardon state charges and that could put Don away for many, many moons.
