If you break the law to help Trump OR if you are his friend, he pardons you.
Trump's Pardoning his friends and supporters:
Stephen K. Bannon: Trump's former chief strategist in the White House was in charge of the final months of his 2016 presidential campaign and was indicted in August along with three others on wire fraud and money laundering conspiracy charges. Prosecutors alleged that Bannon's crowdfunding "We Build the Wall" campaign raised more than $25 million from Trump supporters and used hundreds of thousands for personal expenses.
Paul John Manafort Jr.: Manafort was indicted and either convicted or pled guilty to a long list of charges including illegal foreing consulting work and tax and bank fraud. He was the Trump 2016 Campaign Chairman.
Roger Stone: Stone was convicted of multiple counts of making false statements, obstruction and witness tampering to protect Trump with Wikileaks releases on the Clinton campaign. Trump offered a full pardon. Stone was also caught for the same but larger failure to pay taxes as Hunter Biden but the Trump DOJ/IRS only persued civil remedies.
Michael Thomas Flynn: Flynn pled guilty to lying to the FBI about conversations he had with Russia. Full pardon.
George Papadopoulos: In 2016, Papadopoulos flew to Russia to meet with the Russian Foreign Ministry after being told they had the stolen Clinton emails.

He pled guilty to making false statements to the FBI. Full pardon.
Dr. Faustino Bernadett: Bernadett, a retired anesthesiologist, was sentenced last year to 15 months in federal prison for taking part in a long-running health care fraud scheme where he authorized sham contracts that concealed over $30 million in illegal kickback payments to physicians, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.
Elliott Broidy: Broidy, a former Republican National Committee finance chair and one of Trump's top fundraisers, was pardoned. Broidy pleaded guilty in October to conspiring to violate foreign lobbying laws.
