I know there was a lot of support on the populist right, even some on the left, to see Snowden and Assange as well as others pardoned when Trump left. Under normal circumstances I think Trump with his devil may care attitude would do it. I'm beginning to wonder if top leaders such as Mitch the bitch threatened him with impeachment passing so he could never run again and possibly lose his secret service detail which would be dangerous with as many leftists who want him dead. Or the powers that be could have given even bigger threats. This is just my mind rambling but does anyone else think it's possible or am I just a crazy conspiracy theorist?

Even in retrospect, I think that Trump made some great contributions, namely waking up ever more people to the extreme corruption of the media and the establishment. The way they have embarrassed themselves and abandoned every principle over the past few years will supply us with ammunition for decades to come.
Trump's gift is something he noted years before he ever ran for office: he makes his enemies tell the truth. I was pretty cynical about politics before Trump, but I had no idea the scope of the problem we faced. It's basically everyone in politics above county dogcatcher, and most dogcatchers are probably in on the grift too. Then pretty much all publically-traded companies, and a pretty good chunk of the religious orders as well.
