Not a thing.

I hate the idea of that cabal being pardoned, but I can live with it. . . as long as Hillary LOSES the election.

What Happens if Obama pardons the Clintons, Chelsea, Huma, Pedesta, Mills, et al?

Then they won't be prosecuted.

I don’t think he can pardon until there is an indictment.

May not hold up since they were pardoned without criminal conviction, and the Ford pardon for Nixon was not challenged. Trump will challenge and there’s nothing to stop him to do so.

As bad as Obama is, I am not sure he would do it. I have no doubt he still loathes Bill and Hill.

What if he pardoned Chelsea and Huma and not Hillary? Haha.

It would effectively end her campaign if he does it before the election. He will probably pardon her after the election in any case. Either way, if he pardons her it is the end of her political life, imho.

Won’t happen.

They would have to be charged with an act in order to be pardoned.

Cankles won’t win. But for the hell of it, if she did and Obama pardoned her, can she then turn around and pardon him?

Pardoning power is almost absolute.

Pardon has no power over impeachment. Most of these folks could be impeached, found guilty and punished by Congress, but the rules are such that it would be very unlikely.

I’m guessing that there could still be a grand jury, independent prosecutor etc. and lots of unindicted co-conspirators. But the congress would probably just take a pass and breathe a sigh of relief.

Isn’t there a limit on the number of criminal friends a president is allowed to “pardon”?

They have to change the law about presidential pardons. This will prove that anyone closely connected to the administration has no fear of the law and there is no equal justice under the law.

The pardons will be voided after Trump takes office and has a legal hearing concerning the birth certificate.

But the pardon is only for federal laws, IIRC.
