Trump Pardons Arpaio!

[Thumpalumpacus]

Impressive, I suppose.

[Edwardo Piet]

If by "impressive" you mean "stupidly dangerous and dangerously stupid".

[A Theist]

Such a Drama Queen you are. At least it was Sherriff Joe who President Trump pardoned and not a vicious terrorist like Oscar Lopez Rivera whose sentence that Obummer commuted. I'd like to see more pressure put on so called Sanctuary cities that are harboring illegals and are ham stringing local athorities from reporting them to ICE.

Tell you want, let Sheriff Joe serve 35 years in Arizona heat in the tent prison he erected for immigrants, then we too will give him clemency.  Oscar Lopez Rivera had already served 36 years for crimes that were in principle not that different from those George Washington committed against Britain.

Oscar Lopez Rivera spent 36 years of a 55 year sentence. He was a member of the terrorist organization, FALN, which claimed responsibility for 120 bombings from 1974 to 1983 in which six people were killed. The SOB should have gotten life. Instead, Barack Odummer and the left embraced this vile murdering terrorist as a persecuted martyr. The murderer and terrorist, Rivera, should still be in prison.

Yea and Obama sank the Titanic and killed the dinos and murdered JFK. I don't think you understand how pardons work or why presidents do them. 45 most certainly does not.

@A
Okay....? Does that mean, somehow, that Sheriff Joe -shouldn't- go to prison, or.......

Fun aside, in the legislation regarding presidential pardons, a tq argument is specifically referenced as a disqaulifier. Carry on.

I agree. A Theist has no clue what pardons are for.
Pardons are for presidents to let people out of prison that have served them well politically or financially. 99.9% of those are done during the president's last day or two in office so's not to damage their political career. Trump didn't play that game.

Obama did this with some druggies that went on to kill people or went back to selling drugs once they were let out. Do the facts make me a racist?

45 certainly does. I don't think you understand a president's power to grant reprieves and pardons in cases of federal crimes, ("except in Cases of Impeachment").

Did I touch a nerve....?

Fuck you Frank Burns.

Nope. Not at all, Mama's boy.

I get that you're both saying horrible, nasty things to each other, but this crosses a line...
