Kemp can pardon him, and probably would.

There's an actual process Dope.

"Trump couldn't even seek help from the state's governor, because in Georgia, unlike many other states, the governor cannot issue pardons.

Instead, pardons are issued by the Georgia State Board of Pardons and Paroles, a five-member panel authorized by the state constitution. The board considers applications beginning at least five years after an individual has completed his or her sentence. That timeline differs from the federal system, where presidents can issue pardons before a person has even been prosecuted."

Now you can come back and say, Republicans will change the state constitution, etc. Go.
