Nixon being pardoned set a bad precedent

Probably. I don’t know what it’s like for Americans but tbh there is a feeling that Trump is now being hounded by the current political elite. Yet people over here in the U.K. , not everyone obviously, think it’s all a tad unfair, politicised, and that if it carries on he may even be seen as a victim of a political assassination……

What would be unfair, Pete, is for someone accused of these multiple criminal acts to be allowed to escape investigation simply due to their previous position in government. Shouldn't matter if their name is Bush, Clinton, Obama, or Trump.

Totally agree, unfortunately it seems to some outside of the USA that it’s become a political and legal stitch up. If he’s guilty then fine but I fear that this never ending cycle of accusations will play to his supporters and he could end up as the first American President voted in while in prison…..weird tbh…..

Perhaps it might be viewed as such by people outside this country, and many in this country, who don't understand how the legal process and Grand Juries work in the US.

As Trump himself stated, he could shoot someone in the middle of NY's 5th Avenue and he'd not lose a voter. While only slightly hyperbolic it rings true in the main. So, honestly, none of us should really care that much what his staunchest supporters think - at least in terms of the crimes he's accused of and how to apply the law.

And this is why many of us are pessimistic on the state of affairs here.

The evidence of his crimes is overwhelming. However, right wing media has successfully created an alternate reality over the past 30 years - all they needed was a man with such little conscience to take advantage of that, and here we are.

If people see this as political theater overseas, that's naive. Western societies typically don't see such overt disrespect for a country's laws and norms. Well, not for a while anyway. But I digress
