JONATHAN TURLEY (GUEST): Then there's the final issue here which is going to get really wicked. That is Trump could run on pardoning himself. You know, for people that feel that this is biased, that this is part of a pattern. He could turn this on his opponents and actually run on his right to pardon himself. So, if he's elected, even if he's convicted, he could pardon himself or he could do so before a trial occurs.
JESSE WATTERS (HOST): Yeah, the good old pocket pardon.
