Stupid is a good explanation. The pardons provide cover for Trump. Whatever Trump does with pardons can now be partially justified by Biden's actions. It will be interesting to read some of tell-all stories that come out after Biden leaves office. Both parties need a new generation of leaders - maybe even skip a generation.

I think we have to get out of this lowering of standards mentality, the "the other guy did it, so we can do it too" frame of mind. Neither side has had a particularly good track record for taking the moral high ground, but yes I agree, Teh Donald doesn't need any encouragement. He's as unrestrained as anyone.

I agree with you 100%.
I just don't think anyone in the right position has the stomach to make it happen.
