Criticism of Trump’s release of the 6th January rioters is based on the violence against police officers. IMO the behaviour of some of the rioters was exacerbated ‘in the heat of battle’. Certainly they deserved punishment, but I think that the 4 years they have spent in prison as well as the problems they face getting employment with a criminal conviction, is punishment enough.
