Trump regrets pardoning Rep. Henry Cuellar after Dem announces he’s running for reelection

President Trump expressed angry regret over his eyebrow-raising pardon of Rep. Henry Cuellar last Wednesday after the pol quickly confirmed his reelection plans as a Democrat.
Cuellar (D-Texas), 70, who sits in one of the House Democrats’ most competitive seats faced federal bribery, money laundering, and foreign-agent charges for allegedly taking $600,000 from Azerbaijan’s state-owned oil company and a Mexican bank.
“Only a short time after signing the Pardon, Congressman Henry Cuellar announced that he will be ‘running’ for Congress again, in the Great State of Texas (a State where I received the highest number of votes ever recorded!), as a Democrat,” Trump raged in a lengthy Truth Social post.
quote:
“Such a lack of LOYALTY, something that Texas Voters, and Henry’s daughters, will not like. Oh’ well, next time, no more Mr. Nice guy!”
Trump’s pardon of Cuellar, a rare, moderately pro-life Democrat, had perplexed many Republicans. Cuellar’s seat in Texas’ 28th Congressional District is rated as one of six House Democrat-held toss-up races by election handicapper Cook Political Report.

You can't do clown shite and be surprised when it turns into a circus

With the sole exceptions of Ross Ulbricht & the Jan 6 people, all other pardons have been completely retarded

But it was stupid nonetheles. He should have let it go to trial at least. If not sentencing.
Let a jury decide if he was railroaded or not. And then if the sentence is out of whack or excessive he could then pardon or commute.
And IF I'm correct and this was the DOJ whispering in his ear saying that the prosecution was lawfare based on Cuellar breaking with Biden admin on immigration (like Adams) they can talk to the judge about dismissal and take the heat.

trump playing long ball with the triple double reverse. Better to have Cuellar than a Crockett

Simple fix: Don't pardon democrats. Leave all dem scum to rot in prison where it belongs.

Trump has a drug dealer as his pardon czar. A drug dealer he once pardoned.
Its a clown show, no offense to actual clowns.

Trump gets a lesson about Democrat loyalty. One is never too old to learn.

Trump needs to keep these pardons in his back pocket and STFU.
It's like the Indian boy who gets bitten by the snake, and the snake says, "why are you surprised? You know it's in my nature."
