Gingrich says Trump can't be expected to follow ethics laws, so Congress should change them for him

Donald isn't even in office yet, and already Newt Gingrich has a plan for him to get the job done-- presidential pardons. They can do anything they want, and simply pardon anyone implicated.

“In the case of the president, he has a broad ability to organize the White House the way he wants to. He also has, frankly, the power of the pardon,” Gingrich said, in comments first covered by Politico. “It’s a totally open power. He could simply say, ‘Look, I want them to be my advisers. I pardon them if anyone finds them to have behaved against the rules. Period.’ Technically, under the Constitution, he has that level of authority.”

No, that's not scary at all.
