If Trump has Hillary prosecuted the next Democratic president will do the same to him.

Once that Pandora's box is open, well...

If that box opens, there will be no Democratic president. That's it. There is no such thing as Republican restraint or MAD anymore. They're a suicide cult that worships at the alters of Ayn Rand and N.B. Forrest.

Ford issued a blanket pardon for Nixon (and paid for it).

However, I think Obama would not want to do anything like this, and Clinton would not accept it even if offered, because she didn't actually commit a crime. I think Clinton at this point would actually welcome the opportunity of becoming ~~politically~~ martyred by Trump. I think she cares too much about America to use something like a pardon to slink away.

Considering the demands of his followers, and his choice of Guliani as his AG, this might be more accurate.

Being irresponsible for e-mails which is tantamount to high treason in the minds of Trumps supporters.

They only pretend to care about that and Benghazi. It gives them a convenient excuse to pretend that the reason isn't spite and racism.
