      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”.

      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.

      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.

      Was OJ Simpson a rapist along with being a violently abusive and a murderer? Because I think Trump just likes rich rapists like himself, I don’t know that OJ counts.

    There is a lot of unpredictability to Trump’s behavior, except just keep this in mind and you’ll never be wrong about him: if it’s fucked up, he prefers to do it immediately. If it’s decent, he’d rather be drawn and quartered than do it. This shit is fucking cartoon villain stuff. What possible non-evil explanation would he have for even considering this? At this point he’s just reveling in his cults’ defense of anything he does, no matter how heinous. The Epstein files not getting released is no problem for Republicans and neither will this pardon be.

    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.

    Need to keep as many sexual predators out there as possible. It is the MAGA thing to do.

      But commuting will get Trump more bribes donations, and we know Diddy has the cash to give.

      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.
