This could best be accomplished by reminding him as often as possible about the part he played in the near ruination of this country.
This may be true, but nevertheless I think he needs at least an occasional reminder of the part he played in just about destroying our nation. I’m saying this mainly for the sake of others who were more adversely affected during his reign than I was. In my particular situation I was not as adversely affected as many were, but it was close to becoming much worse for many of us.
I agree.
I just found an interesting post about a SCOTUS ruling on pardons. Those people might want to rethink accepting theirs.
"According to the landmark Supreme Court case Burdick v. United States (1915), accepting a pardon "carries an imputation of guilt and acceptance of a confession of it." This precedent clarifies that a pardon is not a magical exoneration but a legal acknowledgment of culpability. Thus, any recipient of a pardon who does not reject it implicitly admits to the very crimes the pardon forgives."
There's quite a bit more at the link.
Fascinating. Bet that isn’t general knowledge.
You’d probably win that bet.
Gotta wonder how many of the pardonees know about it.
