Not the slavering conservatard prototype Reagan was.
And kept me out of that fucked up war.
Nixon was a mixed bag. Even his Chief Justice Burger was a mixed bag too. As wiki reminded me, abortion, capital punishment and school desegregation decisions were under his watch.
So I'm finding the Nixon/Trump comparisons a little strange since the consensus is Trump will be an unmitigated disaster, and Nixon clearly wasn't.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
