      Leftist’s last resort when they have no argument – go low, name-calling… Since I have you here, there’s something else you should know. But since people like you can’t handle the truth, or are brainwashed Soros owned/dictated NWO, Globalist Progaganda devotees, you’ll say it’s fake (I know the playbook -same as the last 40-50 years).
      Trump is saving children from human trafficking and sexual abuse. When people figure out that the guilty (and protectors) are the same ones that perpetrated ALL the Propaganda, they’ll realize why the attacks on Trump, ‘If these people can do all these sick things to kids and cover it up, I can see why they would want to take down Trump.

      One Reason Pedowood, the Leftists, MSM, the guilty all Hate Trump is why I Like Him.

    2. @Q Wins I feel sorry for you. Your in a cult that has brain washed you and turned you against your fellow Americans. Check out what happened at Jones Town and Charles Manson. You need help

    1. @Pam Johnson You can be as nice and sweet and accommodating as you want, but that will NEVER promote unity with MAGAlosers.
      Grow up.

    2. @Jesus Says Nor will being cruel promote unity. Until they are ready to unite, there will still be division. That doesn’t excuse your bad behavior.

    3. @Pam Johnson George Carlin said it best…… the problem is the public . Garbage in Garbage out…….. and our gullible public that is laugh at around the world that we can not think on our own…… and playing the blame game

    4. @Peter Morris I’ve never been in love with any malignant narcissist, and certainly not with that one in particular. Why do you ask?

    1. @Xavier Fletcher You don’t understand. It’s called an analogy. I brought it up as an example of corrupt justice systems which is the topic of discussion. Logic matters.

  1. It’s illogical to me, that a sweeping pardon, could be issued without an actual stated crime. Nixon was pardoned for a specific crime, and the reason given by then president Ford was unification after Watergate.

    1. Actually Nixon was not pardoned for a specific crime, he was given a blanket or “absolute” pardon for his entire term of office. This is what Ford’s order stated: “Now, THEREFORE, I, GERALD R. FORD, President of the United States, pursuant to the pardon power conferred upon me by Article II, Section 2, of the Constitution, have granted and by these presents do grant a full, free, and absolute pardon unto Richard Nixon for all offenses against the United States which he, Richard Nixon, has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 20, 1969 through August 9, 1974.”
      The Republicans got away with it then, why wouldn’t they try again? No accountability is why.

    1. @Dr No ah but your comment is completely without context or semblance of cognition.
      “Of the acts of clemency, 1715 were commutations (including 504 life sentences) and 212 were pardons. Most individuals granted executive clemency by Obama had been convicted on drug charges, and had received lengthy and sometimes mandatory sentences at the height of the war on drugs.”
      Are you really trying to equate someone getting a pardon from life sentences for sometimes even minor posession charges to pardoning self-admitted felons guilty of treason, tax-evasion, money-laundering and fraud because they’re personal acquaintances if not family members of Trump himself.
      You completely disregard Trump taking bribes for pardons and all the crimes trump has committed and paid great amounts in fines for.

      ☕😁
      Buh
      Buh
      Buh “OBAMA”

    2. @mad-baby IMPOTUS ok now that you added context tell me how my statement was wrong handed them out like candy, what they did is a different discussion, like candy

    3. @The Real Donald Trump he pardoned those who were non violent with drug charges who were given harsh time that a murderer doesn’t even get. Those were people Obama didn’t even know unlike Trump who was in cahoots with those he are trying to pardon, so it’s really not the same.

    4. @El R. no… he granted it to those who the judicial system over sentenced people such as petty hustling drug dealers who had no violent criminal history. I don’t see how they can compare Obama and Trumps pardons cause Trump pardon people he hired to cover and help to do his dirty works.

    1. You thought for a long time about this one…didn’t ya big guy? That is some “Romance Novel” level writing! I can’t stop laughing!!!🤣🤣. My god, that is some funny stuff!

    2. @CrossCynical I hope that’s the case…because if that’s a real person attempting to be clever….🤯

    3. This only applies to holder. Holder is Obama’s wingman and he tried to represent Flynn.
      Judge, Jury and Executioner and the Prosecution as your lawyer/defendant.

    1. Kevin Bedard I hope that trump changes his diaper before he goes. Can you imagine how bad it would be for the people who would be near his seat. The smell would be unbearable

    2. he is already absolutely unravelling in front of the whole entire world ..I don’t think he’s going to last until then
      he couldn’t bring himself to attend..I don’t think it would be possible for him…mentally

  2. I like the part where t’rump is going to pardon himself and his family, which will just make the states more determined to send them all to prison.

    1. Why would he and his family be sent to prison? Do something YOU Liberals loathe, provide specific, verifiable facts!

    2. Don’t waste your time on explaining anything to these people anymore. If they don’t get it don’t waste your time on it.

    1. @Sweetbriar Real news? You mean the way Trump handled Covid is wrong? There aren’t 275,000 lives that have been lost? FYI, I don’t live in the US & watch mostly global news so I am probably in possession of a far wider range of news than what would ever exist in your little mind. No brainwashing here, sunshine, not like you.

    1. Due really never going to happen wake up. You can wish and I wouldn’t hold it against you but it will never happen. Wake up and work for real solutions

    2. @Ted Longe Yore Right ! Because Democrats are COTTON CANDY ! Untill they grow up to 2020 reality politics ! They’re playing checkers , Republicans are playing 3D Chests ! These are not Republicans ! These are Trump Childrens !

    1. yep. These people are corrupt to the core, and Trump has exposed it by how much they hate him and played all their cards and got caught. Kinda funny the orange man got to them so bad

    2. @Lethal Pain trump has NOT exposed anything except himself being corrupt right along with his idiots
