I believe Biden should NOT pardon Trump. It sends the wrong message. While I believe that forgiveness is essential for the person doing the forgiving, I do not believe that a criminal the stature of Trump should get anything but a jail cell.
I was a person involved with national security during my Army days. I was a very small cog in the process, yet I went through all the requirements and received a Top Secret--Crypto clearance. I am beyond furious that Trump has been allowed to get away with what amounts to stealing our nation's biggest secrets, endangering an unknown amount of friendly operatives, and then lying about it to escape the consequences. Goodness knows what he was doing with the documents, but we can guess. If you or I had done that, we'd be serving twenty years this very day.
Pardoning Trump will NOT heal the nation. Speaking only for myself, I feel that I will forever be suspicious of magaty people and repubs. Pardoning tRump would only serve to make me feel that a terrible injustice has been done, and further reaffirm what I feel about two levels of justice being served up to the nation.
We are right now in the middle of a destruction of our country. It's like an aggressive cancer, and it's spreading. You can't say, "Kumbaya," forgive and forget, right when we might be truly facing Civil War 2. And, would you pardon, say, Hitler, in an attempt to heal a nation? No, you'd get rid of that person as soon as you could. I'd like to see ALL of the traitorous part of the Congress locked up. I'm not in the mood for watching that dyed blonde POS tRump walking around free, and continuing to rant on about how awful our country is, and how Dems did this or that.
It's amazing what we've been through. I never thought I'd live to see the day when the richest man in the world is seeking to impose austerity on those that can ill afford to misspend even one red cent. One person, not even elected by Magats. I don't know about you, but every time Musk opens his mouth, I'd like to punch Donald in the face. I do NOT want to see Donald given a pass for insurrection. I know what I saw. He needs to be in jail. I'll settle for exile, or six feet under, as long as it's natural. But, a PARDON? C'mon, that's unreal.
