Newt Gingrich: If Trump Is ‘Dumb Enough’ to Pardon Himself, Republicans Will ‘Impeach Him in a Week’

Tuesday on CBS’s “This Morning,” former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich warned if President Donald Trump were to pardon himself, the Republican-controlled Congress would move to impeach “in a week.”

Gingrich said, “If a president was dumb enough to pardon himself, that would be such an arrogant statement of power that the House would probably impeach him within a week and the Senate would convict him.”
