Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said Thursday that President Trump should consider a pardon for David Petraeus.

Cornyn,, the No. 2 Senate Republican, said that Petraeus, the former CIA director and retired U.S. Army general who pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of mishandling classified information, should be “high” on the president’s list for a pardon, citing his taking responsibility for the crime. Petraeus provided classified information to Paula Broadwell, his biographer, with whom he had an affair during his CIA tenure.
