Sean Hannity thinks so. Hannity stated on his radio show yesterday to conspiracy theorist lawyer Sidney Powell that Trump should pardon himself and his family.

Sean Hannity urged President Donald Trump to issue blanket pardons for both himself and all of his family members before he leaves office in January, to protect them over any possible crimes that they committed during his four years in the Oval Office.

On the Monday edition of his radio show, Hannity complained to pro-Trump lawyer and election fraud conspiracy theorist Sidney Powell that the incoming Biden administration was being publicly encouraged to investigate and prosecute Trump for any criminal misconduct while he was president.

Six months ago, notably, Hannity offered his own vocal endorsement of Trump investigating his White House predecessor during an interview with Mediaite. In that discussion, he affirmed that he wanted the Trump Justice Department to probe both Obama and Biden about the so-called unmasking scandal — which turned out to be a huge nothingburger — and intimated that it was tantamount to a “criminal conspiracy.”

tl;dc - GQP’ers were lying through their teeth, again. The uNmAsKiNg ScAnDaL was just another manufactured GQP circle jerk to keep their base insane.

Here’s the report if you want to read it (“Conservatives” you’re exempt because you don’t actually read crap anyway):

Hugh Nibley claimed he bumped into Adolf Hitler, Albert Einstein, Winston Churchill, Gertrude Stein, and the Grand Duke Vladimir Romanoff. Dishonesty is baked into Mormonism.

Hannity was completely wrong about this being worse than Watergate.
