Trump has mentioned it several times that the January 6th Patriots, ie the rioters, should get pardons and if elected he will do so. My question is, should these rioters get pardons from Trump or from any other GOP elected president? Please give a reason for your opinion.

Absolutely not. A pardon means they are again able to own a gun, run for public office, vote, obtain professional licenses, pass a background check, etc. It would be bizarre and terrifying to allow these people to do stuff like that again. They're a combination of dangerous and stupid. They're traitors and should be treated as such.

N.O. If they do get a pardon, they will do it again.

They stormed a government building and held public officials hostage, 5 people died and hundreds more were injured. No they should not be pardoned for committing acts of terrorism just because they were doing it in Trumps name.
