The president has discussed the preemptive measure against potential revenge attacks with senior aides, but no decisions have yet been taken.
The notion of preemptive pardons gained further currency after Biden pardoned his son, Hunter Biden, on Sunday, indicating a possible shift in strategy.
Aides worried that granting immunity in cases where no crimes had been committed could backfire, inviting claims of guilt from Trump and his allies.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre acknowledged that Biden was indeed considering further pardons, though she would not specify whether they were the rumored blanket pardons.
