He pardoned the Chrisleys.

You know, maybe in the end, my problem with Custard and Mn is not that they are Trump supporters. It's that they are Trump supporters but not smart enough to take the bull by the horn and go out and get some publicity, do some massive financial crimes, get convicted, claim they are victims, and get pardons. Instead they are just blindly pumping money into said corrupt cronies in the name of owning the libs and shackling the mexicans.

He pardoned the Chrisleys.

The motivation for pardoning frauds and thieves is Trump acting like a monarch.  Demonstrating he decides the fate of the judged, not the courts.

I think a constitutional amendment to limit the Presidential pardon power might get bipartisan support in the future.

No. It became legal because of a 5-4 vote in the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court doesn't give a shit about what is socially acceptable. They overturned Dobbs.

If the mainstream culture hadn't radically changed, there would never have been a Supreme Court vote.

 Trump seems to think that white collar crime is actually legitimate business activity, and those who commit it are entrepreneurs.

Mainstream culture has not changed on abortion, yet there was a vote.

The writing has been on the wall for months. I told you to short the market and buy gold and bitcoin. You laughed. I told you to buy before the China deal. You laughed. I did an Office Space style bank account hack on Nvidia months ago, right before it burned down. #winning

Those who can, do.

Those who can't, coach from the bench.

Waiting for the spin on commuting a gang banger's life sentence. Were there Gangster Disciples at the $1m dinner the other night too?

Your silence during the Obama and Biden tenures betrays your bias.

Two votes.

That's really not a good argument. Abortion and marriage aren't like things. Abortion is undesirable, a necessary evil, something that should be safe and rare.

I think most people oppose abortion, but respect the right of women to choose. They also recognize medical reasons for abortion.

Change abortion to marriage, or gay marriage, or interracial marriage:

"I think most people oppose marriage /gay marriage / interracial marriage, but respect the right of women to choose. They also recognize medical reasons for marriage /gay marriage / interracial marriage."

That doesn't work..

Also, my impression is the old school liberals who favored Roe weren't really enthusiastic about marriage equality..

 euthanasia is another one like abortion..

Major league cop out.

Your tolerance of Trump's blatant fascism betrays something..

I can only imagine the national outrage if Barack Obama had pardoned the founder of the Gangster Disciples.
Wanting America to be better is not America-hating, it’s patriotism.

It appears as tho there are only 2 Presidents who have pardoned immediate family members, President Biden and President Auto-pen.
