    This is going to influence literally zero future votes. It’s a flash in the pan news story for news junkies and not remotely as bad as past pardons, which themselves have also had zero impact on future voting. The broader impression of corruption is because of a systematic and continual deference to the issues of business and rich donors, not that a president’s immediate family can get out of jail free.
