Enormous "i just awoke from a coma i fell into in 2015" energy here

Reposted from Jonathan H. Adler

So President Biden has pardoned his son Hunter - and given Trump a precedent that certainly won't be abused.

Won’t someone please think of the precedent!!!

dainty-bastard.bsky.social•87 days ago

Such avaricious, solicitous concern from the Right! My, my.

randrozier.bsky.social•87 days ago

Seeing so many of these takes as if Trump has ever operated under the guise of normal political capital. Just truly naive, baby brain musings.

getastandingdesk.bsky.social•87 days ago

Something about acting like a sociopath short-circuits the human brain's ability to judge and predict your behavior. You're so outside the box that people project inside-the-box ideas onto you to comprehend you.

People have ALWAYS assumed Trump would behave normally.

I mean, it's not like Trump ever does awful things out of his own wants and desires...

This guy would blame the 12 year old girl Trump and Epstein raped together for how she was dressed

Like Trump never violates precedent, right? He needs Dems to violate it first. 😂😂😂😂

jadetoblack.bsky.social•87 days ago

What are they talking about? The 'precedent' was already there. Clinton pardoned his brother in 2001. So it's hardly a 'new' thing... I swear, people need to learn history, even relatively recent history.

LOL

I am requesting a Bluesky segment on the podcast where both of you discuss your highest ranking post. 80% because I think it would be interesting and 20% because it would annoy Derek.

Wait until he learns the history behind the new ambassador to France.

I had to check his other posts to be sure he wasn’t kidding.
Then I blocked.
No need for that person clogging my feed

chrisestey.bsky.social•86 days ago

Thrilled to see that I’m not following any of the performative hand-wringers he reposted.

I recall Adler adamantly defending Jeffrey Clark in the wake of J6 as well. He's not really worth much of anything.

thelibbiegrant.bsky.social•87 days ago

You said it 😂

I don’t think it helps to take away any of the arrows in our quiver. But maybe “rule of law” was never really an arrow, idk.

Loads of people really want to believe the Republicans have no agency and only react to things the Democrats do.

getastandingdesk.bsky.social•87 days ago

As so many others are pointing out: Trump literally set the precedent for unethical pardons.

If you think the Hunter pardon is unethical, and worry about precedent, blame Trump!

cutterjohn.bsky.social•87 days ago

I've always thought Adler is mostly a troll.

graberp.bsky.social•87 days ago

The Yam using precedent? When did he once ever consider precedent before? He trampled every precedent he ever saw and did precisely what he wanted when he wanted no matter what anyone else said/thought. He *always* put himself over country & the constitution including inciting an insurrection.

corporatesaltine.bsky.social•87 days ago

I mean...what are 'norms'? What is a 'precedence', really? A 34x *RECENT* felon has the moral fortitude to consider the consequences of his actions. GTFOH.

itshildy.bsky.social•87 days ago

Yes certainly Trump wouldn't be setting any kind of new precedents or breaking any norms if it weren't for that nasty Mr Biden
