People went to prison for Iran-Contra, there would have been more but the 1st Bush pardoned them.

These past crimes do not compare to the crimes Trump and his band of traitors have committed. Their crimes are much worse. These crimes are so severe it may be political suicide if some future Republican president pardoned the traitors.
