don't be surprised if it gets worse.

don't be surprised if it gets worse.

What sort of things do you have in mind, o oblique prophet of doom?

 

[Leo]

dunno. pardoning the murders of children is pretty bad, hard to top that in terms of pure evil. there's talk of immunity for MBS.

 

[Leo]

Imagine how terrifying this would be if he were slightly competent.

Trump turns on everyone

A President Unhappy, Unleashed and Unpredictable

Trump turns on everyone

Can't say he does much for me.

Beyond shameless, what's next, posthumous pardon for Ted Bundy? "I heard he likes women almost as much as I do".

 

[version]

Both shocking and completely unsurprising.

 

[Leo]

easier to get a pardon than a stimulus check.

 

[Mr. Tea]

Can someone who's been pardoned by a president be unpardoned by the next president?

 

[Leo]

I don't think so.

 

[IdleRich]

I think they might "look into" that though right? Also there are loads of strings attached to a pardon I believe - for example I think it means you admit guilt, you can't refuse to testify etc plus it only works for federal crimes I think.

 

[Leo]

trump can dole out only federal pardons.

 

[IdleRich]

Yeah so if SDNY or whatever goes after him it's worthless I think?

 

[HMGovt’s Glorious Return!]

Well, he did win

 

[IdleRich]

I only wish you were joking.

 

[Leo]

magical thinking.

 

[IdleRich]

You'll like this... but not a lot

 

[IdleRich]

Won't mean much to our American friends.

 

[Leo]

President Trump’s grants of clemency to convicted liars, corrupt congressmen and child-killing war criminals are a way to lash out at a system that he believes has treated him and his friends unfairly.

the law and order president. all-around class act.
