Preemptive Pardons

[gcode]

But those people, Liz Cheney for example, who Trump suggests should be prosecuted for

gross misconduct and suppression and destruction of evidence are the allegations.
The J6 investigations were a travesty of justice... a TDS fueled witch hunt

it sounds like Trump is guilty of things he hasn't done yet. it's like we are trading in a moral\legal futures market

:Lol: Nobody's guilty of things they haven't done yet. That's silly. But if it looks very likely people are going to do things and then, when they do them, we shouldn't have to act surprised, do we? 

Please explain to me how you can believe Trump is going to do the things he says he wants to do and then turn around and don't believe he's going to do the things he says he wants to do?

If that's the case how can you believe anything he says? Or not believe everything he says?

I guess, when it comes to Trump, people just choose to believe what they like and not what they don't like. Or what they don't want to admit to liking.

I'm not going to tell you more about Patel because I expect you already know, but it does kinda look like Trump wants to go after his political "enemies."

Now if he doesn't go after his political foes the way he's said he will we can all laugh it off to more Trump bluster, no harm done, right?

Shouldn't the only person thinking about a pardon be the only person that has the power to grant them?
WTF are the aides talking about it for?

You're asking that like Biden has actual cognitive abilities.

This is an interesting read.

LoLz "DEEP STATE"

for one, I don't have a lot of high expectations for the Trump presidency. I'm not a "never Trumper" and I'm not a huge Trump fan either. So whether he will do what he said he's going to do, most politicians don't so, I guess we'll see.  But to your point in the debate when they asked him specifically whether he would go after his opponents, he said, "my success, meaning winning the election, would be his retribution."

Alright, fair enough.

If he would have stopped talking after the debate this might not even be a thing, but he didn't, so here we are having this conversation.

Check me if I'm wrong, but he never said that Cheney should be in Jail after the debate.

Jail, a military tribunal, firing squad. It's only words.

Sounds fair... Trump has been the victim of relentless lawfare for 3 years now.

What's good for the goose...

Context matters. He's saying she has no issue sending kids to war, but she would if she was there having 9 guns pointed at her on the battlefield. NOT A FUCKING FIRING SQUAD.

Hey, why don't you guys STFU so I can have a chat with Beej?

Just here to fact check your wrong bullshit propaganda you always spew.

it takes a village to raise a child.   

[neurosis]

I'm pretty sure that we could all call each other out for spewing "bullshit propaganda" at some point.
