I can’t wait for the outrages when Obama does the inevitable presidential pardons. You’ll have wingnuts who claim to understand the Constitution claiming POTUS can’t pardon anyone.

Obama has issued fewer pardons than any other president in recent history - that includes Ford, Carter, and GHWB.

Only 61 people have been pardoned by Obama. So, he’s used this exclusive power of the President less than any of the recent presidents.

You have to go back to Zachary Taylor, John Adams and George Washington to find presidents who issued fewer pardons (not counting Harrison and Garfield, who issued no pardons due to dying in office before they could issue one).
