New transcripts shed light on Trump’s interest in Jan. 6 pardons


Donald Trump’s abuse of his pardon powers were a staple of his failed term: As regular readers may recall, the former president used his presidential authority to reward loyalists, complete cover-ups, undermine federal law enforcement, and dole out perverse favors to the politically connected.

He wanted his brownshirts released from prison so they could be ready for next time. What did he say during the debates about the Proud Boys? "Stand back and stand by."

reply

A President cannot "abuse" their pardon powers since those powers are absolute.

reply

Pardoning criminals isn’t an abuse of power?

reply

It's "interesting" that that's apparently the type of "real world" that trump followers actually WANT everyone to live in.

They have apparently become so used to either abusing power, or being abused by it, they're not happy when anyone opposes it because anyone doing so exposes them for the tyrants and/or cowards that they are.

Pardoning your partners in crime is a great way to thwart an investigation or prosecution.

reply

Trump did not commit a crime, he used his first amendment right to call for a protest of an election that we now know was indeed stolen. Diaper Joe is the one who told his cult to murder the Supreme Court and anyone who isn’t a member of the Demokkkrat party.

We now know it was stolen ?
Are you drinking again?

I’ve explained repeatedly: the far left used the FBI to censor the laptop story and 1/6 of Diaper Joe voters said they wouldn’t have voted for him had they known about it, there you go Trump wins.

Also 1/6 is a dead issue , move onto some new material. It only makes you look like a partisan hack when you lose your shit over a couple of broken windows while ignoring your cult leader ordering a hit on the Supreme Court

I think you’re the craziest Trumper on here

Libtard debate factor 101: when you get exposed for your corruption just claim the other side is crazy. I mean you fall back on that one all the time
