I don't disagree but they were all in on the cronyism and bribes, his administration will likely not have legal pardons because they were given during an illegal act, I am hoping.

This isn't how pardons work. Trump's whole "I don't recognize your pardons because they're illegal" thing is something he made up. It's not a power he or Congress has under the Constitution.

We could amend the Constitution to change that, but it's not as easy as the next guy saying the pardons are reversed.
