A more interesting analysis to me would not be the number pardoned, but rather the monetary value of correlated donations or direct financial interests. Pardons are one of the many services for sale, it seems.

Agreed. I often compare the way the current administration is wielding the pardon system to the old Catholic practice of papal indulgences.
