Several Trump-related cases are currently being investigated by the New York State Attorney General and the Manhattan District Attorney's Office. We are talking about possible tax and financial crimes. He is also worried about the possibility of new federal investigations, according to a new report from The New York Times.
Aside from publicly known state and local investigations, the Times did not elaborate on what specific charges the president might face at the federal level.
A presidential pardon applies only to federal crimes; they do not apply at the state and local level. The question of whether Trump will have mercy on himself before leaving office has surfaced throughout the presidency.
While former Special Attorney Robert Mueller Trump was not directly accused of any crimes in the final report, «he was not acquitted either.»
In addition, it is not known what happened to the counterintelligence investigation that the FBI launched against Trump in 2017.
