    Theoretically, yes he can. Under US law (if the justice system was working correctly at all), no individual is above the law.

    However, it is very unlikely. Trump is stupidly popular amongst people willing to overturn the establishment to let him do whatever he wants. Not to mention that he has a favourable supreme court that can just choose not to prosecute him.
