Trump pardoned a former business associate who has written a book and numerous columns praising him

President Donald Trump on Wednesday pardoned Conrad M. Black, a friend and former business associate who wrote a flattering book about the president last year.

Black, a Canadian-born citizen of Britain, was found guilty of mail fraud and obstruction in 2007 in a ploy to swindle millions of dollars from investors in his media company. Black served more than three years in prison and was legally barred from re-entering the United States, the Las Vegas Review-JournalIn a statement, the White House praised Black as "an entrepreneur and scholar," citing his many published works.

However, the statement did not mention Black's book “Donald J. Trump: A President Like No Other,” which praised the president and was published last year. Nor did it mention the many columns Black has written lauding Trump. Black has described himself as a personal friend of Trump, and the two had briefly worked together in constructing the Trump Tower in Chicago, the Washington Post

HouseDemocrats SenateDems can we please revisit a President’s pardon privileges moving forward? Maybe making them a bit more stringent ?

It’s good to be the king.

The list of controversial Presidential pardons is a long one and has no political party bias. That said, as someone who worked for the Chicago Sun-Times for 30 yrs I can tell you that Mr Black, and even more so his partner David Radler, are SCUM.

cronyism If you are a criminal going to day write something nice about Trump and you'll remain a free man. ThisAloneIsEnoughToImpeach

Every time tRump does things like that only confirms how corrupt he is. And his base is lacking BASIC critical skills.

So I guess Trump-friendly pundits are done handwringing over pardons for friends? Bill Clinton and Barack Obama will be happy to hear that. *checks earpiece* Oh. Lindsay Graham is telling me that it’s only okay when Trump does it.

and you get a pardon and you get a pardon

Pathetic

Convicted criminal Conrad Black, you mean? How is that swamp draining going?

Thank you Mr. President

It’s okay though because he’s extremely wealthy (with a bonus of being conservative) so the rules of regular, dirty little people don’t apply to his kind. Can’t expect men of His Stature to suffer such indignities as incarceration with commoners.
