I think we'll find 4 classes of pardons tomorrow:

1. The virtue signalling pardons.
2. The celebrity distraction pardons.
3. The bought and paid for pardons.
4. The criminality exposure pardons.
The virtue signalling pardons are for people who REALLY should be pardoned, those like Alice Marie Johnson.

These pardons will be used by Trump's apologists & enablers on TV to gush over, eg Van Jones' will say "sure, Trump pardoned criminals but WHATABOUT these 'good ones'?"
Next are the high profile celebrity distraction pardons. These will take all the oxygen from the room. These are pardons for people that everyone knows.

These are the scandal pardons.

These are the distraction.

Ignore them, they're just to muddy the water.
Next come the bought-and-paid-for pardons. These will be random billionaires and millionaires paying off Trump some amount.

Because nobody knows who they are, they will get very little coverage in the media. They are "boring".

But there are crimes here; Trump is getting paid.
The final type are ones that will protect the Trump crime family - they will be boring randos, but they won't be millionaires or billionaires.

They will be, somehow, tangentially attached to the Trump Crime Organization. Giving them pardons protects Trump.

Study these.
So don't be distracted by the blaring headlines. Sure he might pardon himself and his kids. He will pardon Bannon and George Nader.

He might pardon all the Jan 6 terrorists.

As hard as it will be, ignore these pardons. Look for the boring randos. Therein lies the crimes.
