Report: Trump Wants To Bring Accused War Criminals Up On Stage At His Rallies And RNC

President Donald Trump has reportedly floated bringing the three accused war criminals he pardoned recently, including Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher, up on the stage of his campaign rallies and even the 2020 Republican National Convention.
Two unnamed sources told the Daily Beast on Monday that Trump has mentioned potentially creating special roles for Gallagher, Clint Lorance and Matthew Golsteyn in his 2020 reelection campaign after having pardoned their war crime convictions on November 15.
He briefly discussed making it a big deal at the convention, one of the sources said.
Trump reportedly compared doing so to the 2016 RNC, where on-stage heroes were brought out.

I think this will backfire and turn off some of those who voted for him last time. I saw one trumper on CNN a couple of months back that thought all the impeachment talk was just another attempt to make trump look bad and take him down. Then he said after reading what was said in the private hearing's, he said with so many people coming forward talking to the House, he decided that they "couldn't all be lying", so he changed his mind and no longer supported trump.
