Toobin: Stone Commutation Shows Trump Worse Than Nixon

I posted this to give the other side a shot, and b/c RealClearPolitics posted it. 
But it's pretty shit.
Compare it to Turley's balanced post (previously).
Toobin gives an entirely one-side account of the Stone commutation...and an entirely one-sided account of the Flynn prosecution to boot.
Note that Turley disagrees with Trump's decision--but he thinks its absurd to pretend that it's massively out of line with precedent--especially given the (as I'd say: absurd) irregularities of the Stone trial.
My inclination is to think Turley makes a pretty reasonable case.
