I don't think an Assange pardon would change Assange's situation. We've all seen that the government does not respect the will of the people nor the will of Trump. Even if Trump pardoned Assange, it would only serve to goad Assange into seeking passage to the US where he would be extrajudicially kidnapped by black ops or the FBI ala Roger Stone.

Meanwhile, pardoning Assange would piss all the wrong people off. I love Assange, I really do. He's one of the big reasons I joined the_donald back on Reddit and have stuck around this long. But pardoning him serves ultimately no purpose imo.

Assange pardon only helps him in the U S. anyway. The Eurocucks would still go after him.

He would be free to return home to Australia if he received a pardon. Our PM has already said he'd be welcomed back so long as the charges / etc.... were dropped or he was pardoned.
