Actually, POTUS pardons are only for past misdeeds, up to the point of the issuance.
Not a future “get out of jail free” card, only a curtain concealing what a detestable villain the recipient has been. If he, say, cheats on his taxes next year, to the pokey he goes.
In Trump we are seeing the Denouement of a Greek Tragedy, the one that follows “When the God would destroy a man utterly, they first grant his heart’s desire.” All his life Trump wanted to be a “Winner”, he thought that becoming President would make him one. Alas, you can not out run yourself.
Hey just a quick shout out “Merry Christmas” to all those here that celebrate it, and Happy holidays to those who honor their own holiday’s. May we all see better times ahead! ;^)

Better to trade away ramen noodles that part with the highly prized Twinkies…

“Please like me” seems a little desperate.

Wait—these pardons cover gastronomical lapses too? Now I gotta get one!

Well I think I know where Fry’s and Lewis’s political leanings lay. I mean Trump is so yesterday, to be still beating that drum.

OK – I think I’ll stick to cartoons that don’t divide us.

“past or future … lapses”. In reality, only past ones can be pardoned, fortunately.
