Real question. Could Trump commute the sentence of a family member or favorite staffer or friend post conviction? For example, if Flynn got a 5 year sentence could Trump commute it to one month?
Thanks for the answer. Why isn't this something that's being extensively talked about. I didn't think the timing was a coincidence. (This kinda set my hair on fire, but maybe I'm the last one to think about it)
I doubt seriously that the timing has anything to do with Flynn or anyone else. And, it has been written about. Here's a big piece I did:https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/the-president-actually-has-enormous-power-to-pardon?utm_term=.mmAbBR5vV#.su16ZR7En …
