2024 GOP hopefuls pressed on pardoning Trump in federal case.

Two long shot Republican candidates in the 2024 presidential race, Vivek Ramaswamy and Perry Johnson, have promised to pardon former President Donald Trump if elected, while South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley has indicated support for a potential presidential pardon but hasn't been definitive. Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson has called such promises "wrong" and "offensive," while other candidates like Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former Vice President Mike Pence haven't ruled out the possibility of a pardon but haven't made any promises. Trump faces federal charges related to the retention of national defense information and conspiracy to obstruct justice, as well as separate state charges in New York City.
