Trump has reportedly decided to pardon former campaign manager Steve Bannon

Sources told The Times Trump added Bannon to his list of executive clemency grants at the "last minute."

After the election, Bannon was named chief strategist and senior counselor to the president, a role he held for eight months. He left in August 2017 to return to Breitbart, the conservative news website he co-founded in 2016. The campaign raised more than $25 million for the project. But all four were later arrested and charged with conspiracy to commit mail fraud and money laundering. Prosecutors alleged that Bannon and others defrauded donors out of $25 million as part of a fundraising campaign they said was going toward building Trump's wall along the US's southern border with Mexico.

Bannon was arrested in Westbrook, Connecticut on a luxury yacht owned by Chinese billionaire Guo Wengui. He pleaded not guilty.

I can't understand why a president can parden anyone who broke the law? is president above the law in USA ?

Of course...this was calculated. He needs someone to help run his batshit crazy media network.

Trump pardoned the worst criminals

Doesn't he remind you of that dirty old man, with the loud laugh and limp penis, drunk and being rude at the end of the bar?

With all that money Steve Bannon stole from border wall donations you would think he could afford a stylist!! Why does he always look like he’s been ridden hard and put away wet Yikes! 😬

Gang of crooks.

This falls below current shock value (what does that say!)

It's not surprising that madmen have empathy for their own kind.

He looks so dodgy.

horrible
