Contributing sentiments towards policy:
58% : President Trump, on the other hand, pardoned significantly fewer people during his first term in office -- 237.50% : Trump has claimed in the past that constitutional pardon power gives him "the right to do whatever I want as president."
27% : Though some on the left argue Biden's use of preemptive pardons is necessary to protect against retaliation from Trump, especially for people such as Liz Cheney and others on the Jan. 6 panel, acceptance of such a pardon ahead of any sort of conviction could be construed as a tacit admission of guilt.
