I was waiting for this clowns inevitable arrest. All over social media bragging about her haters smh.
Threw away her life of luxury for TRUMP. What a fucking L.

How about you go fuck yourself. Enjoy time in prison you entitled cunt.
Its nice to want things you'll never get. Time for her to learn a beautiful lesson.
I highly believe that Trump is disgusted by his fans and would never go out of his way to help them
I've thought this from the beginning, he only cares that they give him attention.
Even if she did get a pardon her career is over at this point. Her name is out there as a traitor.
Them: Pwease Mr. Trump. Pwease save me. I'm scawed. I'll do anything fow you. Pwease hewp.
Trump: Anything?
Them: Anything for you, Mr. Trump. :3
Trump: Then perish.

You can be pardoned before you've even been arrested. Won't happen because it opens up civil lawsuits against Trump for the riot.
Gotta say...Im kinda sick of seeing this tweet multiple times in every single capital riot thread. I mean ya, it's fitting but It's such a standard and not really clever thing to say...why not just type it out?
Is it someone famous tweeting it that makes it novel?
Oh boo hoo... Wah Wah. The Baby is upset she got caught being a terrorist.
Yeah that is what I also think it would signal. It would be a pretty damn response when Republicans try the "was anyone actually instructed by Trump to storm the capitol?" talking point. Why he felt compelled to pardon the insurrectionists? (They would say either "to heal" or "these ones were the peaceful ones in that mob"). But would be a good point to make by the Dems if he went ahead and pardoned those insurrectionists.
Except at this point it's not about "removing a President" even after he's gone. A Senate conviction would allow Dems to prevent him from ever holding political office in the US ever again, which means he ain't running again in 2024 - which would be a literal dream come true for Dems.
Schumer and the other Dems in the Senate are absolutely *not* going to pass up this opportunity. The only remaining factor at this point is whether or not McConnell can convince enough Republicans to go along with it.
Trump: I like insurrectionists that actually succeed at a coup.
I thought I heard that if he pardons them, he opens himself to a lot of shit. I'm sure the Senate would return a conviction in his impeachment.
It's the opposite of the "no angel" bullshit they wheel out when black people get arrested.
I agree. It's ridiculous that presidential pardons are even possible. The United States treats their president like a king.
Optics. Primarily, to keep his lunatic base suckling on his orange teat.
If he doesn't pardon them the reprobates might be reluctant to act the next time he whips them up into a lather.
I mean lawsuits suing for monetary compensation from the families of those who died and injured in the insurrection against Trump is coming and if he pardons them it can be used as evidence against him. If there is one thing Trump cares about is money. He'll pardon his friends, family and himself but he won't give a single pardon to these idiots because he doesn't care about them.
Nah, not going to happen. One, he doesn't give a fuck about them. Two, it opens him up to civil suits and other problems.
This is my feeling. He certainly doesn't care about them, but he does love being a troll to the left. He also might think it will help fundraising. So who knows.
Privilege is thinking you can invert the sentence "this is illegal so I won't do it" into "I did this, so it is legal."
I doubt there's any precedent for reversing a presidential pardon. It might add to his legal problems once he leaves the White House but, like, there's some real "I'm already in prison so what are they gonna do, throw me in prison?" vibes there. He's already going to lose everything and possibly spend the rest of his life in prison, so there isn't much more they can do to him for pardoning everyone that attempted the coup on his orders.
They do need to put the, away, those fuckers are the type that go join a militia and kill people
Right, I'm not wondering what'll happen to him but whether there would be a legal mechanism to reverse that pardon, even without precedent (this would have to create a precedent).
Of course these traitorous asshole would be for a pardon.That's probably what went through their swiss cheese brain when the stormed the capitol "don't worry, trump will pardon us! We can cause as much chaos as we want."
