President Trump’s presumptive Democratic challenger Joseph R. Biden promised not to use his executive power to pardon his predecessor if he takes his place in the White House.
Mr. Biden, the likely Democratic nominee in November’s race, vowed during a television appearance Thursday evening not to interfere in any investigations brought against Mr. Trump or members of his administration if he runs against him and wins.
The former vice president made the pledge during a virtual town hall televised on MSNBC while responding to a question about whether he would use his executive power like former President Gerald Ford and essentially clear Mr. Trump of any crimes he may have committed.
