If a president is booted out of office / ejected / overthrown by the people, supported by the crucial institutions of government and society, that extinguishes his right to still be accorded the honors due him, like a soldier thats discharged dishonorably who forfeits all accrued and future benefits. To restore it means extinguishing the terrible wrongs committed that merited his overthrow. That would be a mockery of justice and an unwarranted revision of history. We must be clear about what is right and wrong, and live up to our values if we are to be a society worthy of trust and respect.
