The President and Republicans resoundingly say NO.

As long as a big chunk of the population aligns with self-interest, corruption & devaluing ethics, they will continue to vote for similar people.

The end result is a long civic lesson in why virtues, strong ethics and trust are all invaluable as foundations of a prosperous society. Hard times create strong men, as they like to say.

It is rarely those in power that seek to reduce the power they have. I would support an amendment that the President may not pardon himself, his immediate family, or anyone acting on behalf of their administration.

I'd settle for not having them signed by an autopen in bulk.

Will someone think of the trillionaires.
