The President’s power to pardon is in the Constitution.
It sucks, but he CAN do this.

Didn’t argue that point. I was saying Trump should rescind the pardons. It is something Obama would do, so why not return the favor?

But Trump can put agents on these scum and indict on the next crimes committed.

I'm not so sure.

I doubt a single participant or debater of the Constitution's creation entertained the absurd idea that a criminal can pardon himself.

The Constitution is mute on that point.
If there is such an absurd reference, I welcome a citation, or link, even from an insane asylum...
