    And Trump was so proud of it he did it while Texas is being pounded by a cat 4 hurricane.

    Not surprising that Trump views willful violation of a court order as an admirable thing

    Let's face it. As much as Trump talks law and order, he doesn't think that means obeying or respecting courts of law

    Trump is a fascist nazi and anybody who supports him is also a fascist nazi, what he is doing is very comparable to what hitler did, shit even genghis khan. This guy is supporting every racist in the world and we have a real issue. He is knee deep into russia, he supports pedophiles, he is a pedophile, I just can't believe it.

    Yeah I saw the light in a dream last night. I can't live in a world with fascists and run by a fascist. I cried after this dream I had. Sobbed, scared for the world of this man

    no, trump is pardoning a man who as an elected official racially profiled individuals after courts ruled that he had to desist. he was then convicted of racially profiling individuals in contempt of the decision.

    Yes he is a racist and fascist man, I am so sorry he is president you guys. I am working on a letter right now to immediately have him impeached. I am trying to be a change in the world. This is the most disgusting act I have ever seen a human do, I can't fathom it. It's sickening

    No jury. He was only gonna get six months at most anyway.

    Obama had every right to pardon anyone he wanted. So does Trump. People screaming as if this is something a dictator would do. Nope, something the President has the power to do.

    having read your posts on many occasions I should assume that your sarcasm is purposed to point to "nothing to see here"? actions speak louder than words.

    On a serious note, all I know about this dude is that he ran that prison with the pink outfits. In Texas I believe. That's it. However I still can't believe Snowden was never pardoned and still isn't, as well as Assange. Especially after Obama said he was pro whistleblower. Never happened. I mean at this point the presidents all just lie, nothing surprises me anymore. It shouldn't anyone else either

    never have I ever invoked impeachment or screamed anything of the sort. for someone trying to mend a rift in the country on the immediate heels of charlotsville, pardoning a man who employed racial profiling in defiance of a court order seems to send the wrong message.

    Yes, 6 long long months.

    Which with jail overcrowding means he would have been forced to clean up garbage alongside the freeway for 6 weekends rather than spend a night behind bars.

    Cruel... so very cruel.
