Don't tell him that! Let him think that by resigning he's home free.

If Pence pardons him he's still going to face state crimes.
And if there is evidence Pence and Trump agreed to a pardon, then that pardon is illegal.

As soon as he's not the president anymore, for whatever reason, he can be indicted.

Also if he leaves office after an electoral defeat. Or at the end of two terms.
