Biden, too, had warned against preemptive pardons before he took office in 2020, at a time when speculation swirled that Trump would pardon his children and personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani.

"It concerns me in terms of what kind of precedent it sets and how the rest of the world looks (at) us as a nation of laws and justice," Biden said in an interview with CNN in December 2020.

Trump ultimately did not pardon his adult children or the former mayor of New York City.

Got it. Thanks.

No need to pardon anyone if they are not guilty.

Oh, and...



Ehhh....unless you're worried about a corrupt, dishonest person in power specifically targeting the pardoned.  Independent of Trump, Biden, and whoever else, if you have reason to believe that's on the horizon, then accepting the pardon is just a safety precaution.

Sure, but if you're in danger of being unfairly targeted, does it matter?

I just find it unremarkable, from either side.  If the roles were reversed...shrug?

....because despite whatever faults Biden has, he's not an absurd, vindictive chode.  No need for the safety precaution.

Who was being prosecuted?  
Just Trump.  
No threats for anything beyond that.

Is this a serious statement?

"Who wasn't" would be better.
