Should Biden pardon Trump? Serious question, and as a MAGA critic, I think it could be a good...

You make some valid points. But it could also legitimize the idea that he did nothing wrong and that his legal troubles were nothing but political persecution.

We both know MAGA will believe his narrative not the facts of the case.

I think it would be a terrible idea. Trump is innocent. Biden is only pardoning the guilty.

#1 Biden will never be the better man compared to Trump
#2 the charges against Trump were politically motivated and will be dropped anyway so Trump doesn’t need Biden's help

No: details follow:

1. Charges “Dismissed without prejudice “ can and likely will be revisited when Trump is not an in office, statute of limitation is frozen.

2. Trump and maga admit to violating the laws so this is not at issue with them.

3. For Trump and MAGA it would only make Biden look weaker, they see positivity and kindness as weakness.

Global response: no, Trump should be detained ASAP even if it takes NATO’s assistance.

Should those that voted him in be considered an accessory to a crime?

There's logic to it but I think there's far more Americans who want justice than care about Biden looking like the "better man." Trump has already skated on the most crucial crimes. Can't let all his behaviors go unpunished. That's a bad precedent. Worse than it is already.

Excellent suggestion. Pardon Tяump for known crimes; then he can't plead the 5th when subpoena'd for evidence. And yes, just as Clinton had to testify in response to a grand jury subpoena, so would Tяump.

One of the reasons Trump became popular in the first place is because of that kind of corruption. Americans hate that the rich are above the law.

NO 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Too late. The Justice department has already dropped all charges.

I don’t think it matters now.

So Donald Trump gets prosecuted, even though no other sitting or past President has been? (I'm sorry, I'm kinda making a sweeping comment based on the other comments posted)

Trump obviously believes that he has won everything, offering him a pardon would prove it.

Vin53 · M

Find the least punishable crime and pardon him for that and that alone.

BritishFailedAesthetic · M

Yes. And it would have looked better if Trump had then pardoned Hunter.

JustMorty · 46-50, M

He doesn’t need Biden to.
In 47 days he will pardon himself.
