We have a new meltdown, folks.
This time, its our tadpoles! The still-normie anons. Plus of course further, deeper greater meltdown by all sorts of lefties and democrat true believers!!!
Anyone upset about Our Boy Blue pardoning Hunter for 'all crimes committed since Jan 1, 2014'?
Putting aside the question of whether a President can pardon uncharged crimes (i.e. he can pardon convictions, but not things that have never been convicted?), I'm absolutely loving it !!
This is fantastic. Absolutely great. I could not stuff more popcorn in my gob than i have right now. But (and I stress to make this clear), I will munch, enjoy and consume this popcorn because I am supremely confident that there is going to be so much more winning coming along.
But Biden pardoning Hunter? Abso-flippin-lutely wonderful! Melting leftheads and normies alike.
Once again, we have to look at the IMPACT of an action, but the appearances. This is going to help the maga cause so, so much!
Of course, along with some other of the best thinking anons, I have come to feel very convinced that Joe Biden and Hunter were flipped way, way back, and that they have been playing ball. Seriously, compared to the whole flippin corrupt system, they are the smallest of small fry.
We don't need them. We need to destroy the "whole corrupt Temple". And, if they can save their skins helping that objective out, I really don't mind.
You'll have to excuse me now. I need to get more salt for my next batch of popcorn.
Exactly. I made a comment about this yesterday on another "Hunter pardoned" post. If a president were able to do that they could just give a blanket pardon to a any person(s) for all the crimes they may commit in the future making them untouchable for any and all crimes no matter how serious. The only crimes Hunter has been convicted of are the ones he pleaded guilty to, tax evasion and lying on a 4473 (ATF form).
There is precedent as President Ford pardoned President Nixon for all Watergate related crimes.
I think a president pardoning another president for a impeachable offense by the HOR but not Senate convicted is a bit different than the Hunter one. https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/articles-impeachment-adopted-the-house-representatives-committee-the-judiciary
Nixon never got impeached by the US House. He resigned before that could happen. The pardon blocked future Watergate related charges.

A blanket pardon makes no sense..as you said Trump could go ahead and pardon everyone in his admin for the next 4 years and basically rule untouchable. Crimes have to be trialed and convicted before a pardon can be considered. But I’m no law expert and this seems unprecedented so who knows what will happen with this.
I believe the pardon only covers retrospectively.
You are correct. I have since this morning learned that one can not be pardoned for future crimes. Still a blanket check for your past crimes known or unknown makes no sense and at the least should be challenged in court imo.
