There are substantial differences between legislative immunity and a pardon; the latter carries an imputation of guilt and acceptance of a confession of it, while the former is noncommittal, and tantamount to silence of the witness.

If Rump granted himself a pardon and accepted it, that impeachment would be a slam dunk!
