Direct quote from Trump today “I saw his wife on TV...I don’t know him very well l, but he was on The Apprentice years ago”. Sounds like a completely legit explanation for letting a corrupt government official out of a prison sentence .

ImpeachTrumpAgain

Gotta get some of his criminal buddies out of prison to help with 2020 campaign.

I'm fine with this. I have no love for the criminal justice system or politically motivated witchhunts or prosecutions. But the part that irks me is that this guy is objectively guilty and gets out, meanwhile Julian Assange is objectively innocent and languishes.

Trump has a weird definition of “draining the swamp”

He can even do pardons to the dead hence Epstein! Just saying!!!🧐😢

So the American people will be conditioned when Trump pardons Stone, Manafort and Gates after his pre-pardon spree.

realDonaldTrump your letting all the crooks out of prison. I guess Bernie Madoff is next 🤔

14 years is an eternity to an old man.

nocriminalleftbehind

And Al Capone right?

Why is Trump letting all these crooked cheaters off the hook?

Let's call this the prelude to Roger Stone and Trump yucking it up at M-a-L this Friday night.
