It's funny when people are more upset about being called out than seeing the person they voted in do absurd things again and again.

Is it a ‘snarky political jab’ if it is highly likely to happen irl?

Two things can be true.

It is a snarky political jab.

President Trump loves to pardon white collar criminals in exchange for donations. It is his whole thing and well documented.

The donations to his Presidential library are a scam. I’ve made this prediction elsewhere. I am 99% confident that the Trump Presidential Library will not be build during his lifetime. Further,I am 50 year old nonsmoker and I am 85% confident the Trump Presidential Library will not be built in my lifetime.

I also expect the new East Wing Ballroom will not be built this term and the donations will mysteriously disappear with the next administration.

One thing is certain: Trump is brazenly enriching himself, his family and associates every way he can in this term.

But on the bright side when Dems win the midterms they will spend the rest of his term investigating and impeaching him, which will be amusing if nothing else.

I guess you've never heard of a rhetorical question.

But speaking of snark why are you so upset? Trump has form pardoning people for purely political reasons and for personal gain of various kinds.
