Episode Details

In this episode, we wander into dangerous, controversial waters: namely, current events. The events of January 6, 2021, have put Donald Trump in hot water and in danger of criminal prosecution. Once upon a time in the '70s, another former President was in a similar situation. Back then, President Ford chose to pardon Nixon, almost certainly ending his chances to win in 1976, but saving us all from an incredible legal/political circus. Should Biden consider making the same offer to Trump? What are the advantages and disadvantages of such an admittedly unlikely move?
