This is when America jumped the shark.

@GazDownright I think that happened in 2016, and it's kept happening ever since.

@TimothyJohnson5c16 I respectfully disagree. What happened before and during the 2016 administration was a perverse outlier. Biden's move yesterday potentially turns this into a new norm in American politics. In a future History of the Decline and Fall of American Democracy, this might be a watershed moment.

Short-term-wise, it also creates a convenient precedent for Trump to pardon whichever felon he'd like.

@GazDownright Clinton pardoned his brother. Watershed was Nixon's pardon. It needs an amendment to fix.

@MartinRandall Thanks. My American political history is lacking, as you have revealed. In a way this is somewhat reassuring; means that things doesn't necessarily have to spiral out of control from here.

I agree on the amendment. Royal pardons are plain medieval, and pretty much a guarantee for inequality before the law.

@GazDownright ironically the royal pardon power in the UK is working much better.

He is a sinner. He will sin again.

@TommyGoldman He won't be president again, though. Oh, right, you mean Hunter Biden? He's small potatoes; the pardon itself is a much larger sin, in my opinion.

@GazDownright Tommy posted before the pardon.

@MartinRandall Good observation, cheers. I think my comment could have been made ahead of time, too, though. That's why I bet on NO; I couldn't believe he would be this destructive and hypocritical.

If he doesn’t, what was even the point of this entire lifelong journey? Take something for all that you’ve given.

lol he’s not Trump

@cadca Can you repeat that?

@GazDownright Well he still technically in a physical sense is not in fact Trump. But god daym that was a plot twist!
