Well, even if he won, he could only delay a lot of the actions against him. He might be able to make the federal go away permanently (or, in four years, they could pick up the charges again?). But the various state charges won't go away. At most he can delay for four years, but he can't pardon himself from any of those actions. It's an open question if he could pardon himself from federal charges (that would end up in SCOTUS, I'm sure).
