Nixon: Pardoned.
Reagan/Bush: Iran-Contra successfully covered up in part because of pardons
Bush II: let’s look forward, not back at torture, lying into war

Things are shitty now in part because whenever Republican presidents dabble in fascism, media and political elites quickly insist on letting them off the hook, stupidly certain that the fever has broken and it’s time to unite.
