"Additionally, the Post reported that Trump pardoned the cryptocurrency exchange HDR Global Trading (BitMEX), which eliminated a $100m fine against the exchange for violations of the Bank Secrecy Act. Trump also pardoned several company executives who had pleaded guilty to financial crimes.

Oyer told the Post it was "unprecedented for a president to grant pardons that have the effect of wiping out so much debt owed by people who have committed frauds"."

Yeah.

That's the ~looking back~ number.

But I have to ask, what is the ~looking forward~ number?

Asked differently, if a wealth-enabled person commits a crime that exploits lower- and middle-income folk, will Pres Trump eventually pardon that person?

Based upon prior actions of Pres Trump, I'd proffer that he has no issues with pardoning convicted criminals.
