U.S. Army Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl, who is charged with desertion for walking away from his combat post in Afghanistan in 2009, has asked President Barack Obama for a pardon, the White House said on Saturday.

Trump savaged Bergdahl as “a no-good traitor who should have been executed” and criticized the prisoner swap in 2014 that won his release....

Normally I would agree due to the race issue. But the way he grandstanded with the parents in the rose garden and everything, I think he’ll see it through. Plus it’s another chance to rub patriotic, military families noses in it.
He loves things like that and anything he does is all about him.

Bird dog is destined to be someone’s bitch at his freak parents commune.
He will forever be reminded of his desertion by the Citizens if he ever tried to function in society

Why should Bergdahl be pardon, when he hasn't been convicted of anything yet?
