As others have pointed out, it's all just self-serving work to keep the heat off of Trump. It will not cover up his crimes but there is a possibility that it could cause some people to soften up to him but I doubt it would be many who would.
I heard on the news tonight that they have 30 pardons prepared. They said he is going crazy with this because it is the only thing he can do that no one else can control. When a pardon is considered the whole case is usually gone over but Trump isn't going over anything, just giving out pardons.
The reason Obama didn't pardon this woman was because she was the head of a group that was dealing millions in drugs for the mob. It wasn't like she was a small time dealer. She was really a good person in jail so I'm on the side that I think she deserved the pardon.
I love that quote from Ghost!
Frannie, by "serious action" not sure what you mean. Are you asking about when Trump would be gone?
Yes serious action on part of him leaving
