AND, his highest politically charged pardons? WERE ALREADY convicted and were an OPEN book... and the Democrats KNEW it, because they were NEVER even questioned after their pardons !!Michael Flynn –Former National Security Adviser who pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI over contacts with a Russian official.
Roger Stone –Trump ally convicted of lying to Congress regarding his attempts to contact WikiLeaks after the website released damaging emails about Trump's 2016 election rival Hillary Clinton.
Paul Manafort – Former Trump campaign chairman convicted of financial fraud, alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. election and conspiring to obstruct the investigation.
Charles Kushner – Father of Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner, convicted of tax evasion and witness tampering, and recently nominated by Trump as the U.S.'s ambassador to France.
I think YOU got a BIG FAT NOTHING burger there... BUT, Democrats are used to that against Trump !!!
Ultimately, of the 237 grants of clemency by Trump, only 25 came through the Office of the Pardon Attorney's process (which at the end of Trump's presidency had a backlog of 14,000 applications); the other clemency recipients came to Trump's attention through an ad hoc process at the Trump White House that benefited clemency applicants with money or connections to Trump allies, friends, and family members.[4] Most of Trump's pardons and commutations were granted to people with personal or political connections to him.[
