“If Trump wants to mess with his enemies, he may decide to pardon Assange. He is hated by Hillary Clinton and many Democrats. That is reason enough for Trump. Especially since it is much easier for him to make such a decision than to pardon Snowden, which, given the atmosphere in the US, is almost impossible”, – Pushkov wrote on his tg-channel.
