I never said his sentence should have been commuted. I, in fact, said I was not in favor of this.
You have reading comprehension issues.

If she hasn't figure out the "why," then she is really slow.
Why was he pardoned? Because his dad is a famous politician. There, I saved her some unnecessary mental work

No doubt and I don't disagree at all. You're buying into cubbies shtick where she purposefully misunderstands things. Never buy into a Cubbies Shtick.

I'm not buying into anything. Objectively, we can't release all prisoners because they have a sick family member. Thats part of the punishment for breaking the law--tough titty. However, he was because of who his father is. I mean, you really think this situation is more nuanced than that?

sounds like he sprung this turd on the request of his dying mother..His remaining sentence was commuted but the parole was left intact. He''s got 5 years of that, he'll likely frick that up

I’m not misunderstanding anything. A Republican politician secured a personal favor from another Republican politician that excused his son from paying the debt he owed to society.
It’s not rocket science.

You come here to peddle the latest Reddit DU talking points of the day. The problem is that the democrat party’s former standard bearer has taken away any credibility your party might have on this issue. Biden used the autopen and told outright lies about pardons. I really don’t care about your sudden interest in calling out corrupt pardons after the abuses during Biden’s term.
The gall to come in here and whine after Biden let thousands off the hook and while activist Dem Judges are currently releasing hordes of repeat violent offenders is par for the course for them
We are the only ones that to have live by the laws while they ignore the pure hell they unleash on innocent people with no regard

Agreed.

I think his father, as a politician, has pull that I will never have. I think if I had such pull though, I'd probably use it in a similar situation. Most people would and do.
The nuance, wrt cubbies, is that she's seemingly insisting this ONLY has to do with pull and she doubts Womack's wife is even ill.
1. I'm against it
2. I understand it
Those two items can coexist... as I've already stated, I understood Biden pardoning Hunter and of ALL things Biden ever did, that's the one I really don't hold against him.

Nobody denies this.
YOU however, seem to think people are "celebrating it" and they aren't.

How many of those drug dealers get presidential pardons when their single moms are sick?
I’d imagine quite a few.
Joseph pardoned around 4,000 non-violent drug dealers.

Then throw their arse right back in to finish the sentence.

Who stole?
From where? Who’s money?
How she says this leads me to believe her and the folks of her ilk think it is perfectly fine to steal from fellow citizens.
She simply doesn’t care that we all paid taxes. frick us.

Don't defend it. Don't agree with it. Still my president. It's OK to disagree on issues. See how that works?

Not sure why you insist on viewing this situation from the Womack's perspective. Of course, if I had that power I'd try to help a family member. Not one person has posted that Womack is wrong for wanting/requesting this pardon. The problem is Trump granting that request.

Again, she could be on death's door--I have no idea. But like I said in my last post, you don't get a commuted sentence for a sick family member--unless you got serious connections apparently.
So if we assume she's sick, then do you not believe that the ONLY reason he is getting his sentence commuted is because who is daddy is? What other theory do you propose?

You understand Womack trying to help his son. But do you understand why Trump would honor his wishes?

Trump has honored many wishes I very much disagree with. I also think the older he gets the softer he gets with this kind of stuff. I'm not that old yet.

Not really.
For the umpteenth time I am not in favor of it.

Ok…. You’re devoting lots of energy to explaining why the president was justified in doing something you’ve said you don’t approve of.
Better?

I also never said I felt the commutation was justified.
I explained what reasoning I found, did NOT say it swayed my opinion of it.
Clearer?
