How Is Manafort A "Good Guy" and Why Pardon Him?

Seriously. Manafort and stone lobbied for some of the most shady/unethical foreign leaders. Manafort just got convicted for bank and tax fraud. He’s indicted for money laundering and failing to register as a foreign agent. His own daughter talked of blood money. What the hell is Trump talking about? Why pardon Manafort? Guilty is guilty. A crime is a crime, special counsel or no special counsel, 1 year ago or 10 years ago.

The party of “law and order” my ass.

Good guy or not his prosecution was purely political. Had he not been associated with Trump’s campaign for a short time he’d have never been targeted much less indicted over a case the DOJ dropped more than a decade ago.

Pure ■■■■■■■■■ Multiple charges he was found guilty of were for very recent actions, but you’ve happily consumed the lies told to you and continue to spew them.

One day we’ll all look back at these times. Some of us will wonder if we were on the right side of history, some of us will know we were, and others will not ask the question of themselves at all because the answer will be too painful.

Everything I said was perfectly accurate. He’d have never been in the spotlight or targeted much less indicted had he not joined the campaign.

Brilliant retorts. You should frame them.

The “why pardon him?” part is easy.

If you float the idea of pardon out there, it may keep him from coughing up EVERYTHING as opposed to what hes already let loose.

Except in this case Trump is engaged in active obstruction of justice.

Good luck with that one.

We don’t expect Trump sycophants to get morality, only the 5-8% that realize the mistake they made in 2016 voting for him and their conscience has finally awoken.

This discussion has nothing to do with morality.

I knew which side you were on. You didn’t have to tell me.

You have no ideas what you’re even talking about.

It’s you’re the one off the rails. :wink:

Where exactly did I go off the rails. Be specific.

So even though he did the crimes it doesn’t matter.

It matters that we are criminalizing the political process.

So lets correct it with another political process :+1:

Give it your best shot.
