‘As Corrupt As A Pardon Gets’: Chris Hayes On Trump Pardoning Manafort, Stone | All In | MSNBC
Funny nobody going can pardon him when New York get a hold of him…lmao
Thank God for that so he won’t be able to run for office anymore in America, Thank GOD. But he also had state crime which will land him in JAIL.
Unfortunately, those charges are civil, not criminal. So, Trump is unlikely to go to jail. Trump should go to prison, but it is unlikely to happen.
Trump,may need to stay out of New York,once out of office.New York will serve him with legal papers.He better stay in Florida.
@vshah1010 not true. Civil Trial will reveal the Criminal activities. He’s going to Jail!
@Brian Petersen Jay’s not wrong though. SDNY has 2 active cases against Trump and his children, one of them has already ruled Trump committed felony charges, but filed that they can’t indict him until he leaves office.
USA; run by a criminal? A man willing to carry out sedition?
USA is run by A criminal yea, but supported by foreign entities, insanity of a “base” of lawless uneducated brats, and a senate without balls or morals
I don’t believe Santa Claus will be going to the White House to see his old friend the King for food, entertainment & playing golf in the White House this year, instead he will be going right back to the North Pole.
And funded by tax payers. Seems like Trump raging war against America instead of protecting it the and people.
I predict the Trump family et al will be on a jet heading to a country with no extradition agreement as Mr. Biden is being sworn in.
its TOTALLY gonna be Russia!! Putin has had the bedsheets turned down for them…he and trump will be spooning
@E.A.W Tzipporah 100% correct.
Here is my prediction: Trump will leave the country and he will be prosecuted in absentia. Many of his pardons annulled and those criminals would eventually return back to jail.
@E.A.W Tzipporah the optics would be horrible even to him. And he would never be allowed back into the U.S.A.
@jesse I’m not sure about that. Putin was asked that question at a press conference (I think last week). Putin said he was sure Trump wouldn’t come to Russia.
Pardoning everyone who has got something on him.
@Deborah Freedman And long after he is out.
Good deal for the pardoned ones, but they would feel deeply indebted to him. Trump will be thier master. Yikes!
Ghislaine Maxwell… ?
Michael Cohen will be one of the few cronies that will *NOT* receive a pardon, the Cyrus Vance SDNY case is based on Cohen’s testimony about Trump Org’s tax fraud schemes.
What that FOOL doesn’t realize, care of the United States Supreme Court, the 5th Amendment no longer applies and a pardon does NOT apply to future criminal offenses.
Starting January 21st they start filing charges on Trump and issuing Subpoenas, any person that refuses to testify gets locked up for Contempt of Court.
The Jokers breaking all his cronies out of Arkham asylum.
the joker was intelligent…
@Noreb also the joker is cool
Don’t diss the joker like that. Lol
For 4 years America has been governed by a criminal enterprise headed by the biggest crook who took over the GOP.
St.i couldn’t have said it better.the white house was full of criminals starting with the president aka eagles nest.trumpee the state courts are waiting for you.you and all the good for nothing s.are going to jail.god bless america.
These so called pardons may not mean much in the future. Keep in mind it all depends what state they did their crimes in. The state can still file charges against them. Just a thought. P.S. Also each one of these people Donald pardon can be summon to testify under oath and if they lie, charges can be brought against them. These people have a hard time telling the truth.
Toh yes

oh wow
Took over is strong. Republicans party LOVES him. He is the Republican party and that.is our biggest problem!
I wonder if President Trump will pardon George Soros?
American presidential pardon : Limited to Chicken Only.
He’d fk that up too. 2 turkeys who laundering money for other russian turkeys; pardon.
Toh yes
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh wow
Surprise, surprise. Nobody saw this coming.
he better close his eyes cause some fingers bout to come a pokin’….this is going to be so satisfying when justice catches up with this dirtbag and make no mistake these acts will have real-world consequences
He needs to pardon the 75 million American’ts who to this day still believe he’s the best thing since Wonder bread. All traitors.
The blind ones.
Toh yes
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh wow
Americants? I think I made those types of jokes when I was a freshmen in high school.
I totally agree but how people that wake up and brush their teeth be so ignorant I don’t understand I saw a person that was interviewed off the street she said she didn’t care what he did and she still would stay on his side
@Ryan Hagen I think he’s probably right! Hang em high!👍🏾👍🏾
‘Nobody has ever done what I’ve done!!!’
‘Nobody has ever pardoned what I’ve pardoned!!!!’
The only thing Trump has taught me is that life is cheap. The only Pense has taught me is that morality is selective. Sad!
You need to tweet that to Mike Pence. Seriously.
He’ll never read it, but you should still tweet it to him.
@HeiBred , Best comment on the board. I’ve been saying that for the past two years. It isn’t that Trump is a demented sociopathic conman that bothers me; it’s that half the country knows that, and supports him, not caring about his crimes and acts of betrayal to our country.
You can’t fix that.
@K. McKee , I must know about that one tribe in South America!!
What’s up with them??
@MaskedMarvyl Never, never give up! Patience is a virtue which will pay of in the end.
@MaskedMarvyl
Being a breeder MM you fix it by culling but in truth anything can be bred out of, you just need to live a few extra generations for nature and education to serve it’s course but probably by that time my future great, great, great grandson or daughter will also be probably dead.
He is a wanna be dictator and the pardon gives him the power to be one in a tiny way
Trump is guilty for a lot charges headed his way
Foh yes
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh wow
Why is this man still in office? He is doing corrupt things.
Because he’s the president? Ever heard of it? You have to do more than just hold a book. You have to open it too.
Why! Republicans! Very sad!
Yessss! Whyyyyy!!😡
@becky doesit the point is the orange turd is a dangerous phycopath walking around with nuclear codes! We all gonna die!
@becky doesit Looks like you don’t understand the question.
“Because he is the president” is not an answer to the question.
He is draining the swamp, out of prison and into the streets.
These aren’t pardons…
These are “GET OUT OF JAIL FREE” cards…
Once again, Trump shows he is the most CORRUPT president of all time.
Surely these pardons are legally classified as “corrupt” and subject to overturn by the Biden administration.
He’s a crook pardoning other crooks. Makes Nixon look like a choirboy.
He pardoned a who’s who of sleezes bags. Just looking at their pictures makes me need a bath. This is worst than a Mafia crime family.
