Some of those were scandals?

'So petty': Donald and Melania Trump fired chief usher before leaving White House to spite Bidens
"President Joe Biden was blamed for firing the White House chief usher on his first day on the job, but his predecessor actually did the deed -- apparently to spite the incoming first family.
"Donald and Melania Trump sent White House ushers home early on Inauguration Day in one of their last acts in a tense presidential transition, a well-placed official not associated with the Biden team told the National Journal.
" 'The Trumps sent the butlers home when they left so there would be no one to help the Bidens when they arrived,' the official said. 'So petty.' "

I mean, it's a known behaviour of cults that when their leader's prediction's*, core tenets, whatever, are proven wrong, believers double down on their beliefs (because admitting they were wrong all along is much harder)
(Particularly noticeable in doomsday cults, when the actual day comes and goes with no doom whatsoever)

QAnon Shaman feels ‘duped’ after Trump doesn’t pardon him
‘Only thing missing at Capitol was president stirring up Kool-Aid with big spoon,’ QAnon Shaman’s lawyer says

You guuuuuys, he was duped! He didn't mean to dress up in a stupid buffalo suit and commit treason, he was tricked into it! Honest!
So wait... is the lawyer actually going to try and argue that his client only committed a crime because he thought he was going to be allowed to get away with it?QAnon Shaman feels ‘duped’ after Trump doesn’t pardon him

"My client had a verbal contract not with the man holding the office, but with the office itself. As such, my client fulfilled his end of the bargain and deserves a pardon from the current sitting president."

This was a unanimous decision, but doesn't preclude future cases against future presidents from happening. They just decided that they weren't going to duke it out this time, while leaving room for it to happen in the future, probably because Trump's going to lose a lot of money in upcoming state cases anyway.
I'm wondering if the judges did some backroom politicking between each other in regards to some other future cases to let this one slide.

I'm wondering who else was there in that room with them.
I mean, a crime is a crime is a crime, so for it to be unanimous practically SCREAMS that there was some kind of deal cut with somebody.

Trump is incompetent, even at pardoning criminals:
I'm not following. He's always been like this. Why would anyone care now?
Because the news didn't really report it when all the oxygen was being taken up by Trump.
When I say he was always like this, I'm referring to 8 years of obstruction under Obama.
Yes, when he had power he doesn't have now. He's leading a minority party still chained to Trumpism and the news has a vaccum of things to report after the glut of crazy from Trump. After all the stupid shit he has pulled, I don't think his hypocrisy will get as much of a pass as it used to.
Thé controversy being that he has only the one compared to Trump’s hundreds?
People from Pennsylvania are never allowed to own, much less wear, a Rolex. Nor are they allowed to use a Peloton for exercise.
I’m pretty sure Jesus said that.
Look, the last president was a decent sort, who didn't bring along useless freeloaders.
This one? TWO dogs, and talk of a cat. You're aware those are being protected, fed, operated on, even walked by Secret Service! All on YOUR dime! Shameful! Just throwing OUR MONEY around for NOTHING. Profit profit profit, duping the good normal folk, it's all they do.

I made this joke about a recent Biden video, but it's honestly not far off from the truth.
Socks was classy enough not to look into Burton’s abuse of the same postage fund.
