either trying to gaslight you for future egregious acts by Trump or are completely unaware of this new state of American politics. Either way, stop consuming these people's content. Stop giving them clicks. You are contributing to the problem if you do.
Trump has already abused his pardoning powers. This isn't theory, it's reality. Hunter was being harassed, after pleading guilty even, to be used as a political football against Joe.

(17,125 posts)This works out perfectly for the legacy media, because they can criticize President Biden and pretend like they don't know anything about Trump's first term. It's beyond obscene.
BBC World is a pretty decent alternative to our pathetic domestic choices.

Trump doesn't need a precedent because he would just do it. Joe Biden's pardoning of Hunter just gives him something to point to, even though Trump would do it anyway.

Like his Supreme Court, Trump doesnt care about precedent.
He doesnt even know what it means.
Probably thinks they said President
