I think he will try, and it will be up to SCOTUS to enforce the Constitution. Will they? Interesting.

Roger Stone was not acquitted. He was convicted by a jury after a trial. There is no wiggle room on this. Trump was impeached, which triggers a different section of the impeachment rule that says that he may not use his pardon power on people closely associated with him.

>>Under Article II, Section II of the Constitution, the president is given the "power to grant reprieves and pardons for offences against the United States, except in cases of impeachment." Pardons are supposed to be used as acts of mercy. The framers thought of the pardon power as a "benign prerogative" - prerogative because it was mostly unchecked by courts or Congress, but benign because presidents would use it for the public good.
But the framers knew not to place blind trust in the president to wield the power justly. That's why they explicitly forbade a president from exercising the pardon power in "cases of impeachment." The clause prevents the worst abuse of the pardon power: a president's protecting cronies who have been convicted of crimes related to the president's own wrongdoing.<< ------------------------- "One of the reasons why propaganda tries to get you to hate government is because it's the one existing institution in which people can participate to some extent and constrain tyrannical unaccountable power."

I think the SCOTUS will rule 5 to 4 that trump can use the the Constitution as toilet paper if he wants to. He's the god emperor now of the holy republican empire.
