Trump 'going to look at' pardons for Gov. Whitmer kidnap plotters

[Playingmantis]

President Donald Trump said that he is "going to look at" pardons for the individuals who were convicted of plotting to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer when asked by reporters in the Oval Office. He added that he thought the trial for them was a "railroad job."

"I'm going to look at it. I will take a look at it. It's been brought to my attention. I did watch the trial. It looked to me like somewhat of a railroad job. I'll be honest with you, to me, like some people said some stupid things," Trump said. "You know, they were drinking, and I think they said stupid things, but I'll take a look at that. And a lot of people are asking me that question from both sides. Actually, a lot of people think they got railroaded."


Another step toward the destruction of America!

1. If there was a hell, this is one POS sociopath deserves to burn in it.

[Attilatheblond]

2. Is there no bottom to what this animal will encourage, enable, pardon??

Law & order? Only criminals will thrive in Trump's world.

3. Time for state charges

[Bayard]

4. The decision making capability of a turnip

5. Governor Whitmer

Might go along with it in the interests of coexisting with Trump, seeing as we keep getting reminded he won the state of Michigan and she needs to be seen as pragmatic.

12. She keeps hanging around him

Might as well join 'em

6. "I did watch the trial."

This goofy idea was definitely put into his head by drunken clownface Jeanine Pirro.

The fact that Obama didn't pardon Leonard Peltier immediately upon assuming office is, in retrospect, a scandal of first order.

9. He must have stayed at, what was it, a Holiday Inn?

[Ilsa]

7. I'm confused. Weren't there also state charges? nt

[Ping Tung]

8. Will Sherlock Trump exchange his silly red cap for a Deerstaker hat. Will RF Jr play faithful Dr. Watson?

10. Open season on Dem politicians, judges, officials.

You can kidnap, rape, kill them and will get a full pardon.
Probably even a nice monetary settlement.

[Johonny]

11. We have reached the point where only state charges

Are illegal against white people

[Diamond_Dog]

13. This is what you get trying to be nice to him.

Wonder what Gov. Whitmer will do now.

[Rebl2]

14. BS he

watched the trial. He was out at the golf course no doubt.

[Kid Berwyn]

15. What Constitution?

[Blue Owl]

16. So... if you've been drinking and said some stupid things, you've been railroaded

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

17. No longer the party of law and order I guess

[Jack Valentino]

18. Hey Donald, why not pardon Ryan Routh while you are at it??

*Some people say* the evidence against him is weak..... I think it's a "Trumped up" case, myself....
