that ends them with the promise of a pardon.

It's no more far-fetched than anything this Administration is doing.... Maybe less.

Tie every republican to certain issues

1. Destruction of the White House East Wing.
No approval or plan.

2. Pardon a convicted drug smuggler, 400 tons.

3. Favorable treatment for a convicted human trafficker of sexual victims.
.

He will wait until after the election for his pardons so it will hurt less for the republicans.

Especially the pardon of Ghislaine Maxwell.

One that was impeached twice, no less! Not to mention that every single one of us (except for Native Americans) come from immigrants who made that brave journey - and now immigrants are no longer welcome here?! And he has turned the pardon power into a joke, only unrepentant convicts who are determined to keep committing crimes need apply. And he is the most determined felon of all...
