It’s the GOP after all. Guardians of Pedophiles.
iirc he’s up for parole anyway in a few months so he’ll walk out either way
But commuting will get Trump more
bribesdonations, and we know Diddy has the cash to give.
He couldn’t pardon Epstein so he’s pardoning Black Epstein
Invest in baby oil
Rapists of a feather flock together.
Trump raped kids
He’s building up to pardon his partner in crime Ghislaine
It actually feels like he wants us to know he rapes kids just so he can show that no one can punish him for it.
I 100% think he will pardon Maxwell. Why? It’s the most fucked up option he has in that situation.
Criminals stick together. He has to protect his own.
But seriously, this is yet another shit stain on American law and order and I give the GOP Credit for proving judges and courts are useless for the wealthy and powerful and are only designed for us poor folks.
Has Trump ever met a trafficker he doesn’t like?
LMAO, he’s not beating those rapist allegations. For sure Trump was fucking kids with Epstein.
If you are rich they let you do it.

Why can the president stand above the law? They’re talking a lot about having no kings or whatever but Trump basically is one.
Sweden is a constitutional monarchy. Our king doesn’t have as much power as Trump. Neither does our prime minister.
Neither should. That’s not how a democracy should work.
Normally, a president can’t. The president is supposed to be checked by the legislative (Congress) and judicial (Supreme Court) branches of the government (president being executive).
The problem is, the other two are loyal to him so they don’t check each other.
Most presidents have not had this power.
I think they are talking specifically about the power of pardon, which all other presidents certainly have had.
Yeah but a lot of this I feel is do to states failing to do their jobs as well. 87% of prisoners are in state prisons, none of which the president can pardon. I assume all it would take is one state prosecutor from say Florida to look at information released thus far in the Epstein files, say this happened in Florida, and file charges against her. I assume the federal government would have to turn over all of the information they have in the Epstein case to the state prosecutor or they would be obstructing an investigation. Other evidence in the case could potentially spawn more criminal charges for others involved and they could sentence her to whatever they found necessary. Then Trump couldn’t pardon her.
“Dual sovereignty” rules make it so you can be prosecuted by the state for the same thing you have been prosecuted by the federal government.
The government has basically been held together by a system of social norms and gentleman’s agreements which Trump doesn’t give two shits about. The one, singular potential good thing that might come out of this presidency is if all of these loopholes get closed as a result.
Assuming anyone who’d want to close them ever wins again.
To be clear: Trump’s opponents are saying no kings. Trump & those around him are tweeting pictures and videos of him as a king. Stephen miller said Trump had “pleniary power”. His followers want him to be king.
The whole pardon thing, as well as others of the US presidential powers, are a remainder from absolutism. They thought they took the best of all worlds, by combining elements from absolutism with more democratic elements and combined them into a constitution, when in reality it was a pretty shaky construction from the beginning. And of course now it has long since gone completely rotten by deliberate corrupting the system even more than it was before.
Next up - Diddy gets the “The Presidential Medal of Freedom”.
Need to keep as many sexual predators out there as possible. It is the MAGA thing to do.
What benefit would that do for Trump ?
I doubt it’s trump being smart, but… since the 2016 election, his support from young black men has doubled. That might have something to do with him pardoning Lil Wayne, Kodak Black(pedo rapist pos), and NBA YoungBoy. He probably has some advisors picking people to pardon that will boost his abysmal reputation among certain minorities.
And it gets him the attention and headlines that he so desperately craves.
It’s evil and it emboldens sexual criminals. It also is an abuse of power. Did you think more “benefits” were needed for trump?
When he pardons Maxwell he hopes it won’t be a big deal because “he pardons everybody”.
Discourages police from investigating sex crimes and prosecutors from charging them.
He’s petty and wants to pwn the libs.
All of The Blacks will vote for him now.
Edit: Jeez, /S people! Sometimes I forget that it’s hard to use sarcasm and satire these days, because there are people that truly, openly believe stuff like that.
Its basically the same as having a black president at this point!
That’s stupid. RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES
