Pardons are given as a Presidential role in the Constitution to be used at his discretion

I understand the President's pardon powers. However, I disagree with Trump's decision on this. When elected representatives sell nominations, the sentence should be VERY long. The same for felony tax evasion.

None the less I agree that if that is an acceptable practice in their minds then it must be stomped out, no matter which party they claim
