Nikki Haley Says She Will Pardon Trump When She’s President


When asked directly by a 9-year-old at a town hall in New Hampshire Thursday evening, Republican candidate for president Nikki Haley said that she “would issue a pardon” for Donald Trump if she becomes president.  Ron DeSantis, while doing his best to be evasive, implied something similar a few months ago.  Haley then added that she would do this because having an 80-year-old man sitting in jail would continue to divide our country, and our nation needs healing.

Oh, I get it.  She feels putting an 80-year-old man in jail would further divide our country.  That is, unless that 80-year-old man just happens to be named Joe Biden - and then it’s “Lock him up!”  But I get the point she and the Republicans are making here.  They don’t want a criminal like Trump “dividing the country” while he’s in jail.  They’d prefer he be walking the streets as a free man when he’s “dividing the country."

So, Nikki Haley says she will pardon Trump because even if he’s found guilty, “a leader needs to think about what's in the best interest of the country.”  Really?  Because, I have the feeling a lot of folks feel locking Trump up somewhere where he doesn’t have access to a cellphone, Twitter, or any other social media would be one the best things that has happened to our country since Kanye West changed his name to “Ye.”

Whoa - and guess who is getting hit hard with actual serious questions when she’s not cocooned in the Republican safe haven of “Fox News?”  I mean, first - some smartypants asks her, “What was the cause of the Civil War,” and she doesn’t even mention “slavery.”  Then, a 9-year-old got her to admit that she would “pardon Donald Trump” if elected.  Shame no one asked her if she would have “pardoned Hitler” had she been around during WW II.

I mean, does she seriously think Trump and his thugs will just “go away” after he’s been pardoned?  Of course not.  What she’s doing is desperately trying to stay in the good graces of the Trump cult.  So much so I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if she soon announces that she “wants to buy Greenland.”  Little late on that one, Nikki; Greenland was selling for only half price on Black Friday.  Anyway, summing it all up and given his huge lead in the polls, it appears the majority of Republicans believe “We have to reelect Trump in order to heal all those damaging wounds - that Trump inflicted on this country during his first term.”

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Scientists Monitoring Near-Earth Asteroid 99942 Apophis

Scientists Monitoring Near-Earth Asteroid 99942 Apophis:   Scientists meeting this week at the 2019 Planetary Defense Conference, say they’re monitoring the 99942 Apophis asteroid which will be coming within 20,000 miles (33,000 kilometers) of the Earth’s surface in just 10 years.  The thing is, by the year 2029, Trump will likely be settling into his 4th term - so if an asteroid suddenly threatens to destroy the Earth, my guess is that after 16 years of Trump, no one will really much care. https://www.johnnyrobishcomedy.com  Oldest Human Footprint Found in the Americas Confirmed in Chile:   Researchers say a 15,600-year old footprint discovered by a student in southern Chile is believed to be the oldest human footprint ever found in the Americas.  Oddly enough, scientists say the footprint appears to be that of someone wearing size 12 Bruno Magli shoes, but because it’s from well over 15K years ago - they’re rather doubtful it has any connection to t...

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo:  Three months after he abandoned the daily virus briefings and attempted to turn the country’s attention to what he described as the “great American comeback,” President Trump took the lectern in the White House briefing room alone on Tuesday, free to say whatever he wanted without any distractions from the usual bunch “sciencey nerds” behind him. And, in a rare moment of candor, Trump reluctantly admitted that the spread of the coronavirus will likely get worse before it gets better, and that people should probably wear masks.  Well said Mr President!  The fact is, most of us are already rather optimistic things will begin to get better - sometime after November 3rd. Ironically, now that Trump is finally admitting the virus is spreading fast and that people should wear masks, you’d think most of those armed militia thugs, whom Trump egged on to to out and “liberate” those Democratic run states from t...
