I think this is great!
I read this last night on other web sites. All of the comments were negative. I was concerned that I was alone in my opinion that his conviction after he left office was too political. I am happy that President Donald J. Trump pardoned Sheriff Joe Arpaio.
The president's power to pardon anyone for any federal crime is absolute. Even if the they haven't been charged. See President Gerald Ford's pardon of former President Richard M. Nixon.
Before President Donald J. Trump leaves office, I'd like him to pardon Scooter Libby and any other (Republican) person that was politically prosecuted by a special counsel. If Robert Muller is still trying to prosecute President Donald J. Trump's team, I'd like to see President Donald J. Trump pardon all of them before he leaves office.

I thought the only ones who could get pardons were druggies, thugs, and MTV stars.

I guess we almost got used to the fact only criminals can be pardoned.
We'll see how the mainstream media will react once they run out of other, current headline topics.

Good for The Donald. I'm not a "yuuuge" fan, but he beats the alternative hands down and has shown that he's not afraid to call a spade a spade. He's been growing on me... Sort of like a wart. :0
Joe A. was railroaded by a Kangaroo Court of left wing elitists.

Not everyone agrees. Washington Post editorial.
Feel sorry for the drunk driver.

Of course not. If we expected/demanded that everyone agree, we'd be dyed in the wool Progressives like the "Pravda on the Potomac" and its thralls. Consider that the writer would likely not be in the United States if those who oppose illegal immigration had their way and I think you might get a better understanding for his animosity. I do think that justice should be dispensed without regard to background, social standing, ethnicity, race, religion or any other factor. That is of course another fantasy as the adventures of one each Edward M. "Teddy" Kennedy would reveal.
