I....I...I'....m speechless

Trying to get a grip of all this interesting information you have given me as an response to my question.

I tried to remember what you wrote back in July 2017, but I had to give up.

Ex Parte Garland established precedence

In your answer you wrote

"Yes and no. It depends on if Ex Parte Garland established precedence.
If it did then yes"

Lets say it does and Trump pardon him self.

Then a new question came into my mind
The Republican have majority in Congress and in the Senate right now.

Lets assume the Democrats wins the mid-term election. Can they as they have the majority in Congress and the Senate overrule this
Pardon and impeach the President ?

(I have the feeling you have given me the answer in your response)

Edit:
I may have found it.

"he shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offenses against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment "

Don't know if was the right part I copied

End of Edit.
