Little Jesse has a point ... isn't it a tad bit racist to pardon Granny Pickles and all them dope peddlers and not give him and his Donk buddies a pass?

Pardons can be very broad - they don't even have to specify the offense:

Now, THEREFORE, I, GERALD R. FORD, President of the United States, pursuant to the pardon power conferred upon me by Article II, Section 2, of the Constitution, have granted and by these presents do grant a full, free, and absolute pardon unto Richard Nixon for all offenses against the United States which he, Richard Nixon, has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 20, 1969 through August 9, 1974.

The investigation must proceed anyway. It’s a matter of national security corruption at the highest levels, not just some political impropriety. Even if she cannot be convicted, we still need to know who caused what damage and how to repair the grievous harms.

Occurs to me:

If pardoned, then she can be compelled to testify against everyone involved, including herself.

Not being covered by US news sources is the fact there are millions of citizens in the streets of S Korea demonstrating and demanding their president resign for EXACTLY the same offenses 0bama and his co-conspirator Hillery are guilty of.

“Truly, Mr. President, with a presidential pardon equally monumental to, and greater in scope than, the Emancipation Proclamation the legacy of Barack Hussein Obama II will be one of faith, hope and love,”..........

Sorry Jackson but that is just pure bullshit. The only cement “legacy” odumbo should receive will be 6 feet under.

It would be a useless gesture.

Remember Barky said when asked if he would pardon Snowden: “You have to be convicted of a crime to be pardoned” Has the formaldehyde witch been convicted of a crime yet? Has she been in front of a Jury, with a 2,000 pages of charges? Until that happens, according to the Weak One Barky, he can't pardon her...

So will he dare pardon Hillary Clinton?

I think he's waiting to see how the election-stealing efforts work out. If Hillary fails to win the presidency, then I suspect he will pardon her. Time will tell.

It depends if he believes he’s getting something out of it or not. And whether the rewards outweigh the risks.
