I'm reminded that as the Nixon administration was in it's final death paroxysms, the Secretary of Defense advised the Joint Chiefs of Staff to notify him in case any 'unusual' orders came out of the White House.
I'm not sure where that would have headed if it came to pass, I'm not sure I want to imagine Melvin Laird capping the POTUS, but what else would have been on the table at the point ??
OOPS:
It was James R. Schlesinger, not Melvin. HTGO.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
