Hi Folks,
When he assumed office on August 9, 1974, Ford, referring to the Watergate scandal, announced that America?s ?long national nightmare? was over. There were no historical or legal precedents to guide Ford in the matter of Nixon?s pending indictment, but after much thought, he decided to give Nixon a full pardon for all offenses against the United States in order to put the tragic and disruptive scandal behind all concerned. Ford justified this decision by claiming that a long, drawn-out trial would only have further polarized the public. Ford?s decision to pardon Nixon was condemned by many and is thought to have contributed to Ford?s failure to win the presidential election of 1976.
I'll bet Biden pardons.....HUNTER!
