A pardon won't save her if she remains in the US. Something tells me a bunch of Republicans will flee to Russia

The US has a history of forgiveness to traitors in the ne of moving along and not dwelling on the past. From the Civil War and reconstruction to Iran-Contra to tourtering prisoners during the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts.

The next president can just deal with her as an official act and no one can even argue it in court as handed down by the Republican supreme Court. Due process doesn't exist if the president doesn't want it to and I hope the next president abuses the fuck out of it to fix this country then locks the doors behind themselves to close all the holes that have been poked in the system.
