This really stinks to high heavens, would a suspected pedophile be allowed to continue to manage children until they were convicted? Would a suspected embezzled be allowed to continue on the job? So, why is a suspected President allowed to continue in office, using the powers of the presidency, while he may be a guilty party? These pardons are a travesty of justice and must not be allowed to stand, the totally wreck the rule of law and rend the faith and trust of the entire system.

The Founders did not grant the President the power to pardon, to be used in a corrupt manner. They did not give the President the power to use his pardon power to defend himself against the law. This is one sick proposition, think about it! By not allowing the President to be indicted, a suspect President is allowed to continue wielding these massive powers. None of these pardons should be allowed to stand if issued after the President is proven to have committed crimes.

First of all, there is no "fair and balanced" when dealing with "the devil incarnate". Secondly, these corrupt pardons are leaving cracks in the founding principles of our government/nation where there should be no exceptions. The edifice has been damaged and will have to be evacuated and either repaired or discarded. America cannot live with this deceit, it is making our nation incredible and not to be trusted. Meanwhile, Republicans are not concerned with the plight of the people their support of Trump has allowed to be killed and/or damaged. We cannot, as a nation, live with this corrupt damage, we can live with whatever it takes to reverse it, even if it means we must swallow whatever "corrective errors" it takes to do so. The most important thing is that America is able to show "honorable intent" than it is to show absolute correctness and adherence to "rule of law". If we do not move on this the nation will slowly but inevitably desend into chaos and authoritarianism.

"Let them eat cake!" --Donald "Corleone" Trump

Trump has totally destroyed the notion of law and order. Unless and until some means of undoing this damage, possibly by proving in court that his use of pardon was, in fact, a part of a corrupt operation, presidents will be actually kings. The nation and the world are totally disgusted with Americas current performance. Only the world dictators are comforted by this mess, because it means that America has no credibility and cannot be trusted either by its own citizens or the world.

As time grows short for Trump, expect him to become increasingly erratic, perhaps even issuing blanket pardons to empty federal prisons (do you put it past him?) He's already "bouncing off walls" with distress. They may need to ensnare him with nets to drag him out of the White House.

Trump is bouncing off the walls of the white house, it will get worse and worse as his time in office dwindles. He may pardon David Berkowitz eh? Pardons of co-conspirators must be by nature corrupt pardons, they must be challenged in court. Pardons to cover up his own guilt are also corrupt and therefore must not stand. Other pardons might be reversed if it can be proven that the Presidents state of mind was "abnormal".
