Do you think Trump is at all constrained by precedent or needs any excuse to do whatever he feels like? I don't. Nor do I see how he can go much wilder on pardons than he did last time round (Dinesh DiSouza, Steve Bannon, Roger Stone, Michael Flynn, Charles Kushner, Paul Manafort, etc, etc) or that he's already promised to do (e.g. pardon all the Jan 6th insurgents).
I agree, but Trump was going to do that anyways. I still believe by midterm (if we still exist) the GOP is going to do a "compassionate" Article 25 on him, by then he'll be too out-of-bounds even for them.
Oh fuck. You honestly, seriously think Trump was sitting there wondering whether to pardon some Nazi scum just waiting for this?
The justice system has been corrupted by the GOP all the way up to the Supreme Court. The country has just rejected a perfectly capable nominee for president in favor of a criminal with ties to Russia, who has already used the pardon system as a crony recruitment/rewards tool in his last term.
I'll take things that already happened for $100 Alex.
Trump already pardoned a bunch of Nazi scum last time.
Of course not, but this gives him opportunity to become even more unhinged than he already was.
I think this saw no one coming: Enron is officially back in business, and their mission now is to solve the global - not only national - energy crisis. Yummy!
And even before that he was testing the ropes. Merrick Garland was supposed to be a SCOTUS judge until Mitch stuck his grodie hands in the batter.
