Was the Trump White House Selling Pardons?
Seems so.
Hard not to regard the president who got fired as the ultimate grifter.
Hmmm. Trump White House Income Source
During the Virginia Ratifying Convention’s debate on the adoption of the new US Constitution, on June 18, 1788, delegate George Mason laid out his concern that the pardon power was too broad for the president. What, he asked, if a less than honorable man should ever become president and abuse it to enrich himself?
The president, he argued, “ought not to have the power of pardoning, because he may frequently pardon crimes which were advised by himself. It may happen, at some future day, that he will establish a monarchy, and destroy the republic. If he has the power of granting pardons before indictment, or conviction, may he not stop inquiry and prevent detection? …. This is a weighty objection with me.”
The Saga of Crooked Donald 
The ultimate white-collar criminal. No source of income left untapped. And more than 70 million people voted for him, for a second time! That is why I fear for the future of our country now more than ever. Imagine this festering maggot being the nominee for president once again. What a sad situation we have created for ourselves.
