And for what? Certainly not the glory of America.

He wants to glorify his own ego and doesn't have a clue how to get that done. That's what incompetency does to you.
Trump is completely corrupt and delusional. He is hands down the worst president in American history.

I seriously doubt this happened. There would be nothing in it for Trump.
So, as of today, do you still doubt that this happened?
Not anymore.

I disagree with the bolded part. There are three perceived benefits to Trump from his pardon of her:

1. The reward of political loyalty to Trump translating into immunity from one’s illegal actions (sends a signal for recruiting future allies).
2. MAGA will approve, because they value loyalty above behavior, especially where it conflicts with law (keeps voters close).
3. It oWnS tHe LiBtArDs (red meat for MAGA! Yum!)

MAGA Republican, vandalizing public property proponent, and it's ok to aim a gun at law enforcement enthusiast, Michelle Fiore, here in Nevada, has been pardoned by President Trump.
I seriously doubt this happened. There would be nothing in it for Trump.
From the local newspaper owned by one of Trump's mega donors:
President Donald Trump has granted “a full and unconditional pardon” to Michele Fiore, the former Las Vegas councilwoman found guilty of defrauding donors who believed they were giving money for a statue to honor a fallen Las Vegas police officer.
Las Vegas Review Journal

ETA: My apologies Shades. I just saw the comment further in the thread that your doubts had dissipated.

Thank you for this. In the future, such a quote and a link would be helpful to include in the opening post.

Guy is turning the presidency of the US into an effing joke. What a vile grifter this man is!

Relax, once the Cardinals promote him to Pope, his Holiness will redeem himself by forgiving all sins of the world and get rid of Jesus. It's all a part of Heavenly Father's plan.......
