re: "Trump Is Said to Have Discussed Pardoning Himself" (The New York Times, January 7, 2021)
Make everyone happy: the remaining Republicans with any sense of decency can initiate Trump's impeachment 2. When he has been unceremoniously turfed out of the White House before January 20, the incoming president can then grant clemency with a wholly undeserved pardon to allow the American people to move on begin healing the gaping wounds Trump has inflicted.
A message is sent. Trump gets his pardon. And hopefully the US can move on to recover some of the lost greatness of the past four years. It could, for example, re-engage with the world instead of giving the likes of China free spaces to fill to win friends and influence people.
