"Our Founders and civic-minded public servants ever since understood that, inherent in the minds of moral leaders was a sense of shame. That unwritten sensibility was an internal brake on using the powers of high office to abuse that power. Trump, a narcissistic sociopath, has no such restraint. His previous pardons, especially those of Roger Stone and Michael Flynn, have rewarded those who flouted the rule of law and lied to protect Trump's interests. In an office demanding the utmost in high character and ethical judgment, this president has no shame."
Rep. Steve Cohen at The Hill criticizes Donald Trump's pardons of political cronies.
