So, trump's blanket pardon stated, "grant a full, complete and unconditional pardon to all other individuals convicted of offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021;... I further direct the Attorney General to pursue dismissal with prejudice to the government of all pending indictments against individuals for their conduct related to the events at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021."

So, how would a terrorist who planted explosives not be covered by this blanket pardon of cop killers and other terrorists?

Convicted or pending indictments…. Not future indictments….

If you had a trial or you were in an active trial then you’re covered. If you had not been accused of a crime at the time of the pardon issuance then you’re not covered.

Maybe... My guess is he will be pardoned on his own anyway

Maybe… he’s also a lone actor that is easy to throw under the bus and say ‘no one is tougher on terrorists than me’

I could see either way

Pardoned and then financed and unleashed on a blue city to pump up Blue state gun violence to offset some of the bad press out of red states
