Without a concerted, serious, and well funded program to start reining in human population growth, the elephants (and so many other lifer forms too) are ROYALLY fucked regardless of Trumply.
Say bye bye cheetahs, giraffes, frogs, bees, tigers, mammoths (oops, already nailed them) . . . .
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Trump is the guy at the high stakes poker game who thinks he's slick as hell and hasn't figured out he's the mark.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Does he really think that "Lock her up!" tirade will work the second time around?
One paragraph in that article shows the slop0y use of language that both muddies facts and inflames rhetoric in politics:
Quote:"I think in one case specifically, Senator Franken has admitted wrongdoing, and the president hasn’t,” White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders told reporters. “I think that’s a very clear distinction."
That is ambiguous, it invites the thought that Trump is simply not admitting his offences.
But then, if he admitted all his offences it would probably take year two of his term (at least) to list and debate them. If it included his offensiveness, well, that's at least the rest of his term occupied.
