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 Using Divisive Topics Like Plastic Straws to Energize Base

Trump Using Divisive Topics Like Plastic Straws to Energize Base:  Using tactics such as plastic straws, wind turbines, bogus conspiracy theories and race-baiting, White House aides freely admit that Donald Trump has been deliberately attempting to amplify public tensions in America by seizing on divisive issues as a means to energize his explosively angry base. Now, I know what some of you are thinking - you’re thinking “now this, is the last straw!”  Well, before you attack the “straw man,” remember that Donald Trump was that kid in school who thought it was simply hilarious to jam two straws up his nostrils.  Straws were an important part of Donald’s childhood, so it shouldn’t be a big surprise they remain so today.     What all you “elites" don’t understand is that Trump folks are all about fighting for “freedom.”  You know, the freedom to be morbidly obese, the freedom to destroy the environment, the freedom to live without affordable healt...

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...

Trump Commutes Old Pal Roger Stone's Sentence

Trump Commutes Old Pal Roger Stone's Sentence:   After declaring Roger Stone a victim of the “Russia hoax” perpetuated by the Left and its allies in the media, President Trump has commuted the three-year prison criminal sentence for the Republican operative and dirty trickster, who was due to report to federal prison on Tuesday after being found guilty of obstruction, witness tampering and lying to Congress. Good grief, is it my imagination, or has Trump actually just pardoned the real-life version of the Monopoly guy?  I mean, Stone is a villain right out of Charles Dickens.  Why, this is an act so corrupt, it’s almost enough to make Kim Jong-un and Vladimir Putin blush. Now, I’m no legal expert, but it appears what the Trump Administration is basically arguing is that - someone shouldn’t be punished for committing a crime which “they really should’ve gotten away with.”  And while that may sound a bit odd to the rest of us, that kind of thinking makes go...
