False premise. The actual reason why no pardon was necessary was because Republicans don't abuse their power by conducting witch hunts against people who they don't agree with.
As soon as the Democratic Party is outlawed, there will be no longer be any need to guard against their abuse of power.

President Trump calls into PA election hearing:
"This was an election that we won easily. We won it by a lot... This election was rigged... This election has to be turned around because we won Pennsylvania by a lot and we won all of these swing states by a lot."

And, will that happen before, or after the election results are overturned?

Trump Pardons Michael Flynn, Who Pleaded Guilty To Lying About Russia Contact
November 25, 20204:13 PM ET
President Trump has pardoned his first national security adviser, Michael Flynn, who spent years enmeshed in an often bizarre legal war with the government that sprang from the Russia investigation.
Trump announced the news on Twitter as Americans prepared to observe the Thanksgiving holiday this week.
The pardon brings an end to a long-running legal odyssey for Flynn, who was the only member of the Trump administration to be charged as part of special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation.
Flynn pleaded guilty in 2017 to lying to the FBI about his contacts with the Russian ambassador and then cooperated extensively with prosecutors. But he ultimately reversed course and accused the government of trying to frame him.
Flynn went so far as to withdraw his first plea of guilty and substitute a second plea of not guilty, even though he'd acknowledged the underlying conduct that was against the law and been close to receiving a sentence.
The pardon drew condemnations from critics who've said Trump's actions to help his friends interfere with the justice system. House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., for example, who helped prosecute Trump at his impeachment, called the president's actions obviously corrupt.

What a joke!
@coldjoint,
The CBS News and Fox News links are just livestreams of the meeting. So people would have to watch what is happening.
I brought up the links because you doubted the media would cover the event, when in fact they did.
@BillW,
There is a good here, Flynn must now tell whatever he knows. If he tells a lie, this can and
will be held against him in a court of law!
@oralloy,
Quote:I had to fire General Flynn because he lied to the Vice President and the FBI. He has pled guilty to those lies. It is a shame because his actions during the transition were lawful. There was nothing to hide.

Man, he was just responding to your question “Do you think the media will cover this?”
He answers that, so you swerve off into attacking him for where he gets information. You don’t deal straight up. You are a con just like your hero Don.

He knows that. When you shoot one shitman of his down, he erects another one.
