Sending one of our Presidents to jail has a chilling effect, even if he deserves it! And it sets a precedent.

It scares me a lot

Not to mention, the concept of letting the populus just move on from Trump. He will be a topic for ever if he is in jail (pardon him!)

Responses:

I could be convinced if the pardon came with the price of a guilty plea, not an anticipatory one. -- (edited) - znufrii Nov 2, 21:09 1
