He is sending a message to keep her from ratting on him. Under normal conditions, she would trade a reduced sentence for testifying against Trump. If he pardons her, she could be forced to testify when Trump is no longer POTUS and she will get removed, either through “suicide” or transport to a country that does not have an extradition agreement with the US.

How do you pronounce “Ghislaine”?

OMG! Look at that photo. Each of those male persons has his arm snugging in a love bot which just screams, “My property! Eat your heart out, other males. I got this sexual apparatus all to myself.”

He will pardon her if, and only if, she implicates the Clintons (both) in the underage sex conduct.

Maxwell’s trial isn’t scheduled until next July. If Trump pardons an alleged pimp of minors before the justice system has even had a whack at her would be political suicide.
Then again, Trump has committed political suicide dozens of times, proving himself impervious to the usual effects of putting a gun to your head and pulling the trigger.

Isn’t it about time that the Repubs call out ALL of Donnie’s “most morally depraved of crimes?”

Both sides are “very fine people” except the other side here has severely abused children.

SDNY has a reputation for only cutting deals when the perp agrees to talk about all their criminal activity, not just picking and choosing.
That’s what tripped Cohen up, didn’t want to talk about his father-in-law.
Either she’s dishing on all the folks she knows, or they’re not cutting her any slack.

I think you’re right, and I can’t wait to hear the basis on which he pardons a predator involved in recruiting young girls into a child sex ring.
I know he thinks he walks on water, and he does for about 35%, but he can’t possibly whitewash this. Which is why I think he’ll do it after the election. Then come the state charges.

Oh don’t worry. Jim Jordan, the Evangelicals, those at RedState and the National Review will tell you not to get too worked up about some “locker room” talk and activity.

This jackass wishes Maxwell well, but still has nothing to say about our troops with bounties on their heads. For them, he’s got nothing, not even a best wishes.

He’s telling her not to talk about him. He did the same to Manafort, Stone, Cohen, Flynn. He can’t actually call her a ‘good person’ based on her crimes, but it sends the same message.

“Two” would help. But the objection is more substantial: they did not condemn Trump in any real sense. They did not call for hauling out Trump’s AG in front of Congress for corruptly ending prosecution of Flynn, they did not say anything about corrupt pardon of Stone, they continue to protect Trump. So their “condemnation” is empty air and should be treated as such.

He misspelled “complicit”.

He’s safe, didn’t rat on the family. And nobody else is going to touch him, because his father-in-law loves his baby girl and nobody really wants a visit from the Ukrainian mafia.
