Stone was pardoned a few weeks ago. Now Flynn. Soon to be Manafort and who knows all else.
These are beyond the normal sketchy last minute pardons everyone does. These are the guys from his scandals, guys who lied for him, went to jail for him.Even Nixon had the sense not to pardon co conspirators which likely led the way for his pardon.
I know Biden has made clear he is not going to weaponize his justice department or direct them in any way but Trump's previous actions during the mueller probe and his impeachment inquiry coupled with these pardons are going to make it tough for the next AG to look the other way.
I heard a legal argument this morning that these pardons and anticipated future pardons are a continuation of an ongoing criminal act of obstructing justice. Then of course we know about all the SDNY stuff. The shills may want to believe Trump is fighting for them but he's fighting to save his arse from jail.
So should he be prosecuted or let go for the good of the country?Would it be good for the country however if the most corrupt x10 president ever skates with his middle finger held high? Is it the end of any presidential oversight whatsoever?
