Trump’s Corrupt Pardon of Steve Bannon

[Rebound]

Steve Bannon and others were convicted of fraud because he and his co-conspirators started a GoFundMe project to raise money to build a border wall between the US and Mexico, but instead they spent no money on wall construction, and instead kept the money for themselves.  
 

Bannon’s co-conspirators went to prison, and Bannon was pardoned by Trump during his last days in office.  This was a purely corrupt act. Bannon was clearly guilty and convicted and there’s no rationale for pardoning him, except “He’s my friend.” The equally guilty co-conspirators were not pardoned.   This was never the intention of the pardon process.  
 

Fortunately, Bannon is being re-tried for this crime in New York State court, putting any conviction beyond the reach of a Presidential pardon.

Bannon was pardoned because he KNOWS TOO MUCH about Trump's CRIMES. Just Trump protecting HIMSELF.
