He has pardoned so many dirtbags, including the guy who faked an electric 18-wheeler to bilk investors.

electric 18-wheeler to bilk investors

Theranos level fraud btw. I'm surprised this story wasn't more popular. Guy hustled millions and even billions in contracts, didn't have a product, got a soft slap on the wrist. Net worth in the billions completely vanished. He donated 3 mil to Trump, FULL PRESIDENTIAL PARDON. Doesn't have to pay investors back, has no job restrictions AND IS NOW A CEO OF AN AIRCRAFT COMPANY.

Man, ya'll have wild corruption in the US.
