Trump wants to pardon Peter Navarro and give him a job after he went to jail for refusing to comply with the Jan. 6 congressional investigation.

    Everyone knows keeping quiet and doing time to protect the Boss is gonna be rewarded when you get out. It’s a standard mafia career move.

    No he doesn’t, lol, he only helps people if they are continually useful to him, then they go under the bus.

      Not exactly true. He did various one-off favours in the past . I think you’re too negative about Trump. See for instance an article to explain that Trump is rumoured to have helped various people as a one-off thing: https://www.forbes.com/sites/danalexander/2023/05/16/giuliani-spoke-about-selling-pardons-for-2-million-and-splitting-proceeds-with-trump-accuser-claims/

      Anyway, for anyone too lazy to look at that link. The article is about Trump helping people by giving out pardons, just needed a one-off 2 million usd gift. There wasn’t a need to be useful to Trump after that. Yes, my entire reply is a sarcastic one.

        We agree, I think, but I phrased it wrong. In any case, always good to reassert what a huge sack of shit he is. Just corrupt as fuck without any attempt to disguise it.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
