Assuming the Jan 6th stuff comes to a rapid conclusion; does Trump pardon any/all of people that were convicted? Bannon and Roger Stone get one? Who else?

I hope he treads lightly with the pardons of the J6ers. He should commute most of their sentences but pardon only those who were victims of overcharging by a partisan scheme. It is a bad look to pardon people who committed crimes for political purposes (yes, trespassing in the Capitol is a crime). Let them have their misdemeanor convictions but get them out of jail/prison. Only leave the felony convictions and sentences for those who assaulted law enforcement officers or committed other egregious acts.

Pardon Joe, Hunter, Hillbag, and misdemeanor J6ers all at once. The media would lose their minds.

Pardon's should only be used when the Justice system fails. The justice system hasn't failed Hunter or Clinton. Joe is too old to waste any time on and will be dead before Trump's terms ends anyways.

To allow those 2 to walk is sending the opposite message about the swamp. We can't keep looking the other way and expect it to clean itself up. Set an example and let the next president pardon them.

He had better pardon everyone who was not involved in violence. The violence should be punished

Joe was directly behind every lawfare charge against Trump. Directly behind everything that was done to General Flynn. If Joe committed a crime he should be treated the way he treated his political foes.

Let the the New Attorney General figure it out and the Justice System do it's job the way it's suppose too. Lots of things could appear with legitimate Investigations into things like ACT Blue and Foreign Money. Not to mention who funded groups like Antifa.

Jan 6 is a separate issue. Some deserve what they got. Most didn't. Review the cases and take appropriate action that resembles Justice and not the political retribution they received.

Have Joe and hunter convicted of their crimes and put into adjoining cells that look like Joe's basement. Joe would never know and Hunter could never forget...Boom !!!
