"Many Secrets. No Mysteries"

"Although crucial details remain concealed, the core narrative has been visible from the start. An American private citizen worked with foreign spies to damage one presidential candidate and help the other. That president accepted the help. When caught, the private citizen lied. When the private citizen was punished, the president commuted his sentence."

David Frum at The Atlantic calls Donald Trump's commutation of Roger Stone's prison sentence "One of the Greatest Scandals in American History."

And William Kristol at The Bulwark writes that "Trump has gone further than Nixon ever did."
