How would you evaluate your priors if he is prosecuted, convicted and then given a presidential pardon?



> ...then given a presidential pardon?

I'd go online to see if I could find someone to take a wager on that, but that's such easy money I doubt I'd get odds worth it.

I'd lay $1000 against that happening, and I don't have $1000 to spend lightly.


...I might counterparty that, just because Michael frigging Liberty got one, and if I did, Murphy would almost surely conspire to keep it from happening, on account of the favorable outcome for me at stake.

Then again, I try not to tempt those that should not be tempted.


I'd set my priors on fire and throw them in the trash.


Dramatically.
