Trump has only one move, double down.
Nothing doubles down more than pardoning and with Manafort out of double jeopardy it's perfect for him and shows all the co conspirators that they will be saved if they just stay quiet.
Anybody who is not against Trump at this point isn't going to object to a pardon.
After it is done it will be seen as expected, normal and not THAT bad.
Nauseating.
Today Impeachment, predicting pardons tomorrow
