Veto power is important, I’d hate to lose it even if it sucks. Pardons need some hard anti corruption protections and protection against pardoning of allies. At the same time though there have been a lot of pardons I really support from the nonviolent cannabis users to Chelsea Manning
I’m ok with pardons to some extent. I just have an issue with judicial acceptance of preemptive pardons which are immunities that can only be granted by legislation and that’s ignoring actual immunities that also aren’t particularly supported constitutionally.
