It will be a glorious day when Trump pardons all of Mueller’s victims.
Many of you may not remember that the Mueller probe is an old play out of the democrat party playbook. They used it against GHWB throughout his presidency to limit his effectivess, weaken, and undermine him. Then it was the Walsh probe, with Judge Walsh playing the role of special independent counsel.
He led an investigation throughout GHWB’s presidency. The media promoted him the entire way with leaks and innuendo. The thrust was that GHWB was aware of Iran Contra by Reagan and helped to cover it up.
Some scalps were claimed by Walsh...North, Weinberger, Meese, etc. The media, led by CNN (keep in mind Fox News did not exist), consistently played the democrat narrative that GHWB would be impeached for Iran contra (the evidence was being uncovered and it could happen any time) and the US would be led by the hopeless, stupid, inexperienced Dan Quayle as president. What a dangerous disaster that would be! The media rolled with it over and over.
Anyway, after years of investigation and about $50M spent doing so, Walsh unveiled his report (conveniently after GHWB lost to Bill Clinton). Walsh kept the specter of impeachment hanging over GHWB until after the election for maximum effect of undermining the president. And Walsh had nothing. Zero. Zilch. Nada. Bupkis.
And the kicker: Walsh still said GHWB did what he was accused of, he just couldn’t find the evidence because the republicans were too evil at hiding it and getting away with it. He essentially said I can’t prove it...but he did it.
GHWB then pardoned Weinberger and the other victims of the Walsh witch hunt and the media melted HARD. But GHWB didn’t care; he had already lost to Clinton and said frick it.
I’m expecting a similar repeat of history.
I’ve seen this game before.

No president should have the power to pardon IMO. Although they do carry an imputation of guilt and that would cause a hilarious shitshow.

We know. It’s in the Constitution. Of course you disagree with it.

Why does it matter if he gives a parson to Manafort?
Manafort still goes to prison for the rest of his life on state charges. Those can’t be pardoned by the president.
I think the left wants Trump to give Manafort a pardon. It will only hurt Trump politically.

You don't seriously think this, do you? If so, what, exactly, have you "won"? What's the prize? What do you "win", you know, since you "won" and all...
The prize is, for the 500th time, they get to schedule an inauguration for #itsherturndammit. Because they got him this time.

This post is so ridiculous and cringey I thought it was satire until I read the name

Trump's general response to anything is take no options off the table. He's said it time and again regarding a lot of things. This shouldn't surprise anyone, especially libs who follow and dissect his every word.
It's a perfectly reasonable response, too.

What other President would have the balls to say this? None other in lifetime. Gotta love it!
