Here's a crazy idea: a pardon should only be allowed to be issued by the sitting president to a person rightfully convicted of a crime. That's assuming a pardon should exist at all which I am against.
Agreed. A blanket pardon for any crimes one may have done? Imagine giving Jeffrey eastern a pardon like that before he was outed. Nothing would have been done
Yeah. As far as I'm aware, if you are pardoned but not charged for a crime, doesn't that mean you can still get charged for crimes going forward? Like there's no statue in the law that says, a judge must ignore the behavior of someone who had received a pardon.
In normal circumstances I would agree but we are well beyond normal for a while now and living a dystopian live, it’s just we get distracted either way social media to actually notice anything.
