13. Ok, We all need to stop talking about rules...

There are no rules now.

It is time to start talking about negating ALL of Trump's pardons from his first administration through this one. His pardons are "get out of jail free" cards for his loyal criminal stooges and they are intended to let his current gaggle of crooks know that they are free to break each and every law they encounter..

Restricting a president's pardon power? Not in our Constitution? Who gives a shit.

Democrats needs to start talking NOW about Trump's abuse of pardon power and we need to start talking now about remedies to overturn every corrupt pardon he has handed down.
