TRUMP THE MOB MAN

Quote:
Trump White House encourages and excuses major criminal activity, not only by clearing Zhao but by pardoning Ross Ulbricht, whose "Silk Road" dark web entity sold millions of dollars of illicit drugs -- along with regulatory leniency toward Justin Sun, another major crypto manipulator who channeled many millions into Trump family enterprises.

Trump is a crony of crypto whose only purpose is to amass billions of dollars for himself, his family and his friends. He has no interest in preventing the abuses -- financing terror, abusing children, marketing narcotics -- that were so crucial to the founding of a crypto economy. Remember that when you hear him and his minions smearing his critics as "domestic terrorists," or when his "war department" blows a fishing boat out of the Caribbean ocean for unproved drug crimes.

Sadly, those Venezuelan fishermen didn't figure out a way to pay off the Trumps before they went to sea. They might still be in business, like Zhao.

TRUMP THE MOB MAN


You know these Trump pardons are REALLY BAD if fleaswatter and DoubleGold and AZ aren’t somehow trying to justify them!

I hate the fact that a single human, the President, can override a prosecutor, judge, and jury. Is there any forum member who thinks giving ANY President the right to pardon is a good idea?

I think they might be more selective, if they couldn't ever pardon themselves. It might also be an improvement if a current president couldn't be pardoned by another president for a period of 1 term (4 years). Ford immediately pardoned Nixon. Maybe that was for the good of the country, maybe not. Maybe all Presidents should worry they might spend at least some time in jail. Or as I might put it, have some damn punishment "as a regular person" would.

I could care less about these just like I didn't care about AUTOPEN's pardons.

Yeah like every prosecutor, judge, and jury are unbiased and above reproach. What else about the US Constitution do you disagree with??

James Madison says that you are about 250 years too late to complain.

Trump has told his underlings to start nuclear bomb tests again. Not sure if it is necessary or advisable to do so. But I’m sure Trump isn’t the guy to make that determination! Where do you think Trump will have them stage the test? Desolate Nevada? Downtown Los Angeles? South side of Chicago?


As the CIC, Donny does make that decision. But the DOD doesn't test nukes. The DOE has federal responsibility for the design, testing and production of all nuclear weapons. Furthermore, the DOE uses massive and powerful supercomputers to simulate nukes, in lieu of actual testing. This is a capability neither Russia nor China have.

This is another of his performative, useless and befuddling orders.

Not useless at all. Keeps China guessing. Drives the TDS loser crowd nuts.
