“And the scum shall rise…”
Presidential pardons have historically been reserved for people who actually were treated unfairly.
And the abuse of the pardon starts to ramp up even further.
And presidents who resign in lieu of impeachment for high crimes and misdemeanors, of course.
It is beyond obvious at this point that T rump surrounds himself with criminals, and fully expects their loyalty.
Whatever. Deeply enraging, but actually makes no difference to anything.
Of course he will. Sigh…
‘Owning the libs’ as a political philosophy is just working out swimmingly.
Marc Rich?
And now Debonair Dinesh will have to admit to committing a crime.
So much for the “political persecution” dodge he’s been pulling.
And is Trump able to pardon Dinesh from being the only man in America uglier than Roger Stone? I don’t think the Constitution covers that one.
Bless his heart. Now Dinesh will be free to go on FOX and lie with impunity.
Another pardonable “subtle” hint to Trump’s con-friends.
Other than it sends a huge signal that election laws are unfair. Do you think his co-conspirators from his own campaign will notice?
Dinesh D’Souza, a right-wing commentator, author and filmmaker was was convicted in 2014 of using a “straw donor” to make an illegal campaign contribution.
Project much?
Acceptance of the pardon is an admission of guilt for committing the crime.
Getting in trouble for illegal campaign contributions is so pre-2016. Anyone who is accused or indicted for those crimes is, per se, being treated unfairly by the government. Especially anyone accused of such illegal contributions to the Trump campaign, RNC or any Republican.
A year or two from now money laundering for foreign oligarchs can be added to the list.
He wants all the publicity for his BS that he can get.
If Congress wasnt such a gallery of corporate hose monsters I’d say its time to weaken the executive.
