re: Rep. Tom Rice Latest Republican Censured By Party For Breaking With Trump

If he failed in your "pardon" criteria, too fricking bad. It has nothing to do with "yes men". It has to do with being a patriot.

You have already made up your mind.

What I am saying is that if Trump felt that an injustice was being done to those participating in the Jan. 6 debacle (sound better than insurrection), he had the power as POTUS to pardon whomever he saw fit. That not me being partisan, that's actually a fact laid out in our Constitution. He didn't do so because he simply did not see it as worth the effort. And that is perfectly acceptable, but be honest about it.

I use the term Yes-men because that is honestly the type of person Trump wants. You can argue the ethics of it, but it's not illegal.

Chris Krebs, Mark Esper, the " Resignation" of Aaron Burr. You could go on with the number he let go just because of a simple disagreement.
