Would you support an amendment to the constitution that members of government can't receive pardons?

Pardons for members of government for actions they took from the seat of government just removes the public’s ability to hold our government accountable. We already have too little accountability.

Further because pardons are more likely to be political in nature it allows for a regime to entirely protect themselves when and if they commit abuses of power.

As much as I might support it, it's probably time to burn it all down once you have to start thinking about it

I posted this to a few places. If you want to see what different places on the net think:

It would have to include some language about retaliatory actions and preventing abuse of government organizations against political opponents before being viable

That's fair if someone can figure out the right language.
