President Donald Trump shouldn’t pardon his former campaign chairman Paul Manafort and national security adviser Michael Flynn, said Republican Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina.

“Keeping the pardon off the table is a necessary part of the process,” Scott said Sunday on CBS News’ “Face the Nation.” “I would be disappointed if President Trump were to pardon either one of these individuals.”
