    How would that even work? Can you ‘clear’ someone of having ever been on trial even though they weren’t convicted?

    Pretty obviously just a way to ‘kiss the ring’ but it doesn’t even make sense.

      That’s all that matters in the world of the Orange One. It doesn’t have to make sense, just gotta keep the kayfabe circus going and you’ll stay in good graces.
