A mad bigot was pardoned by his soul mate.

The rule of law is paramount... unless it applies to our political buddies.

When he rots in Hell, I only hope it is an eternity in pink underwear.

Once again, Trump follows through on Putin's desire to break up the West, especially America.

So he pardoned before the sentence and at the beginning of his period.
I suppose, we will see a lot more pardons.

@Walter Hinteler,
Kind of makes the judicial superfluous, doesn't it?

By the end of his presidency on January 20, 2017, Barack Obama had exercised his constitutional power to grant executive clemency—that is, "pardon, commutation of sentence, remission of fine or restitution, and reprieve"—to 1,927 individuals convicted of federal crimes. Of the acts of clemency, 1,715 were commutations (including 504 life sentences) and 212 were pardons.

Most individuals granted executive clemency by Obama had been convicted on drug charges, and had received lengthy and sometimes mandatory sentences at the height of the War on Drugs.

Obama holds the record for the largest single-day use of the clemency power, granting 330 commutations on January 19, 2017, his last full day in office.

He also has issued more commutations than the past thirteen presidents combined.

@Tryagain,
Bravo, Barack Obama.

Trump + Sheriff Arpaio = a whole other story.

He got in trouble for arresting and detaining American citizens whom he targeted based on racial profiling and refused to quit after a judge told him to stop.

He violated the rights of Americans and he did it willfully and gleefully and in direct opposition to the rule of law.

@Tryagain,
Try again.

Obama's actions and Trump's actions are not similar.

@oralloy,
I can't imagine what a horror show your childhood must have been. That's truly a pity, every child deserves to have parents who love them and care for them.........

@glitterbag,
Another instance of "you wishing that my post wasn't true but having no real way of arguing against the facts that I posted".

If only I had a dime for every time that happened.
