John Dowd is a good enough attorney not to have done this without the permission and express instruction of his orange boss. This is Mueller's final nail in the coffin for an open and shut obstruction of justice case. As they say in the movie biz .. That's a wrap!

Washington (CNN) President Donald Trump's lawyer, John Dowd, floated the possibility last year with lawyers for former national security adviser Michael Flynn and former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort that the President might issue pardons for both men, The New York Times reported on Wednesday, citing three individuals with knowledge of the discussions.
The conversations happened as special counsel Robert Mueller "was building cases against both men," the Times reported, which raises "questions about whether the lawyer, John Dowd, was offering pardons to influence their decisions about whether to plead guilty and cooperate in the investigation" into Russian interference in the 2016 election.
