TRUMP DID A COUP ON NATIONAL TV AND THEN GOT REELECTED. PRECEDENT IS DEAD. JOIN US IN THE 21ST CENTURY OR LOGOFF.

Reposted from Jonathan H. Adler

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

When did Trump ever need a precedent to abuse power?

medicinewitch.bsky.social•83 days ago

That's LITERALLY *against the constitution*

rachelfunkydiva.bsky.social•83 days ago

Pretending DT wasn't already going to BIG FAT pardon his treasonous cultists, is just dumb. Come on now. Who do they think they're fooling?

shana-nola.bsky.social•83 days ago

lol thank you!

roryqpotter.bsky.social•83 days ago

The honor system is dead. We can’t rely on the honor system anymore, so measures like these need to be taken for safety.

strawhat-anarchist.bsky.social•83 days ago

Let Biden do one thing cool before he goes.

Trump also pardoned Kushner's dad... the one he just named as an ambassador.

pushshove.bsky.social•83 days ago

Honestly it was a lawfare and retaliation for trumps charges. They would have thrown him in prison for 200 years for lying on some paperwork. Biden did the right thing for his son #abolishprison

sjcpgh.bsky.social•83 days ago

And got away with it! 🤬

socuthedog.bsky.social•83 days ago

Like he needs any kind of precedent to abuse the system

nenebayjohnson.bsky.social•83 days ago

Exactly.

jackovaul.bsky.social•83 days ago

That isn't the problem here. We cannot give MORE precedents and excuses to the Orange Bassturd. From now until WW3 and for 5 decades after all we will hear is "yeah, but what about Hunter?!?!?" Just like we've heard for years now already, only this time it'll come behind liberating MONSTERS.

marikiis.bsky.social•83 days ago

The SC gave him immunity for “official acts” so we’ve got bigger fish to fry. If one of Donnie’s kids got in legal trouble he would have pardoned them, precedent be damned

jackovaul.bsky.social•83 days ago

I'm absolutely with you, and not at all unaware the situation, however it isn't at ALL the politicians that I am worried about, it's the dumbasses that point them there and refuse to see reason when given enough ammunition to believe the lie.

designerplant.bsky.social•83 days ago

Trump was selling pardons for a million dollars. Fuck outta here with precedent.

cluhhreese.bsky.social•83 days ago

I find myself only laughing now, but not laughing like haha, laughing like AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

mightyaegis.bsky.social•83 days ago

Apparently he's going to also pardon Hannibal Lecter and Arnold Palmer's dick.

kittymombo.bsky.social•83 days ago

Trump's gonna pardon all Jan 6 rioters and whomever else he deems worthy. Look at who he pardoned first term. JFC. Trump had all the charges and, indeed, was re-elected. The media needs to stop expecting different actions from Dems. Stop clutching the pearls. Rules no longer apply!

marikiis.bsky.social•83 days ago

Yep it went out the window whenTrump got away with J6. Throw the fucking pearls away

willfb.bsky.social•83 days ago

Jesus what is wrong with these people?

protectpublic.bsky.social•83 days ago

Thanks - I blocked the account. Don’t have time for stupidity.

zayzel.bsky.social•83 days ago

Not to mention Trump trying to overthrow an election and talking about using the military on U.S. citizens on national TV.

kristenloverly.bsky.social•83 days ago

It really is damned if we do, damned if we don’t meanwhile Trump is gonna do whatever the fuck he wants and the media will look the other way.

mav.wtf•83 days ago

the "educated" class at this point is almost more of a national embarrassment than our rust colored dictator

kyzarone.bsky.social•83 days ago

If my dad-sident didn't pardon me for my crimes I'd put him in a home

carriefufufnick.bsky.social•83 days ago

Yeah, we already know DT will pardon a bunch of people so Biden just beat him to the punch.

kyokirigiri.bsky.social•83 days ago

Trump has already promised to abuse the system. Bro thought he ate with this

paien.bsky.social•83 days ago

Like also no way Hunter would be prosecuted if he wasn't Biden's son, this is actually the kind of situation the Pardon was invented for.

holocenereliquiae.bsky.social•83 days ago

TFG pardoned his son-in-law's dad and named him ambassador to France. Precedent is roadkill and pretty sure RFK grilled it for Thanksgiving

cmphilosophy.bsky.social•83 days ago

If only Dems would push thing through House and Senate like Repubs do we might be able to get more progress.

This negotiating with the other side stuff has been stale since the "reach across the isle" rhetoric that Obama used to push.

saintconnor.bsky.social•83 days ago

With what majority? Lmao.

90% of dem proposals were stalled by this dipshit that isn't actually a dem

cmphilosophy.bsky.social•82 days ago

I was saying when they have full control. Not that they have it now.

Also, this only reinforces my point, they need to push harder. Dems keep allowing the party to be very back and fourth.

saintconnor.bsky.social•82 days ago

I think you missed my point. They've never had full control because of "dems in name only" such as Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema.

The party didn't allow "back and forth", there are dems that are actually republican in the party.

This isn't some left of center/neo liberal shit. They were saboteurs.

cmphilosophy.bsky.social•82 days ago

I agree with you.

If Dems would out those people the party would be better off. They won't though.

jonrademacher.bsky.social•83 days ago

I hear you and I agree, but there is also something to be said about not "ignoring the morality" to save the nation but fully doing it for his son.

They don't work for us. If they did, he would take executive action for WE THE PEOPLE, but he doesn't. Are we not enough to protect? Fuck them all.
