If you have a lot of money to contribute to President Trump and/or you are a strong supporter of his no matter what he does, chances are no matter how egregious your crimes, you will earn yourself a pardon.
He pardoned 1,500 people who forcibly entered and then defaced the Capitol building and beat 140 officers causing some to sustain permanent injuries on January 6, 2021. He later called them ‘patriots’.
Keep in mind that Trump’s pardons often not only include murderers and drug dealers but big-time Democrats like Rod Blagojevich, Kwame Kilpatrick and Bernie Kerick. And let’s not forget drug and sex trafficker Ross Ulbrecht. He has also stated that he might pardon P. Diddy, who is currently on trial for sex trafficking. It is also been reported that Richard Grenell, a Trump emissary, went to Romania to help the relax the travel restrictions of the Tate Brothers, who are now on trial for human trafficking and rape. The Tate Brothers arrived in Florida but soon left to return to Romania after Governor DeSantis made it clear they were not welcome and launched a criminal investigation against them.
It’s as if he loves enlarging the swamp.

It is unclear why Trump commuted Hoover’s sentences, but his liberation has been championed by prominent rappers Kanye West and Aubrey “Drake” Graham.
