What country are you from? It happens at all levels. Got a speeding ticket? Call your buddy the mayor or a councilman.
Little Joey got a little carried away with that sleazy Girl Sue and now she cries rape? No worries Uncle frank is big in the party that got Judge Corkscrew elected.
Every time the POYUS grants a pardon he is involving himself . Oh it's ok as long as you like the president?
Trump could pardon Stone tomorrow for every crime he was ever found guilty of. Perfectly constitutional, perfectly legal, perk of the office. Ask every prior President who did exactly that for more than just a few sketchy folks.
Our system of government gives governors and the President serious power on the pardon thing.
And btw, Trump didn't invent or increase the amount of power invested in the Chief Executive. He simply won an election and got to wield it.
When trump loses in November, it wouldn't surprise anyone if he passes out blanket pardons before January to all his convicted pals.
Let's see. The DOJ recommended lighter sentencing, the DOJ is legally and undisputably an executive branch department...so...not seeing the problem. Trump didn't threaten a judge or jury, didn't "command" the judge or jury to do anything, simply had a different sentencing request sent...where exactly is the problem???
Bull****. Trump can say what he wants about it and Barr can investigate it since it's clearly an over the top sentence propped up by things already determined to be fake.

The Stone takedown was obviously payback for going after Hillary during the campaign. Unless the pile of trash that is John Brennan shares a jail cell with Stone for lying to Congress also, I’ll enjoy seeing Stone receive a pardon or vastly reduced sentence.

Stone is a scummy weirdo, but even scummy weirdos deserve fair treatment under the law.
If they have so much power, why are they struggling to get anything done.
I had no idea the Internet reached Mars! You must be on another planet to have missed all this...or, you've been held captive inside the CNN studios for the past 3 years.
