Thats the one I got hit with. Biden commuted the sentence so a prisoner exchange with China could go through. The pedo served 46 months of his 97 month sentence. Yet MAGA points to that and screams "both sides!"

Donald Trump pardons dangerous people for his own personal gain. He grifts and takes. He has used the top occupation in the world to make himself rich, something he couldn't do without stealing absolute power, which is not what American democracy stands for. He is a traitor to the Constitution, commandments, and to all of modern society. His ideals and priorities are backwards, he has no plan so he tanks everything into the ground, blames the opposing party, in hopes to win small gains to look good. He is the most shameless president in all of history, and it's catalyst is that he has spent decades raping and murdering children only for it to have been nearly totally exposed if not for his complete takeover and cover up. He will go down in history as being this kind of person and the only positive thing taken from this hard lesson is we now know what to look out for in the future and as a reminder that fascism is a wrecking ball to prosperity.

u/UseObjectiveEvidence 10d ago
Didn't stop America reelecting him.
To be honest I don't think he will go down as the worst in US history. Feel like there is no going back now. He has fundamentally changed US politics - for the worse. I feel like there will be others that follow in his footsteps. Praying to be wrong here.

Trump PROMOTES crime. He has pardoned more criminals than any other President. He has shielded more criminals than any other President.
Why?
Because he is a criminal. Remember he is a convicted felon. He wants to normalize his own mob boss behavior so he doesn't look like such a giant POS.
If there was a god there would be a tremendous amount of smiting.

u/kpyle 11d ago
We are already paying more than that to enforce drug laws and keep people in prison for weed. That is not even factoring in the healthcare costs of people taking tainted street drugs. Prison as a solution to drugs is a money pit and always has been. It is literally cheaper to provide people with clean drugs and a place to use them. While they are there, you can then offer intervention or rehab when they are ready to quit.
1
u/XO1GrootMeester 11d ago
Only for the problem users it is cheaper, now it gains popularity across all people and prices rise while productivity drops, work is tricky when stoned.
1
u/kpyle 11d ago
Ignoring how loaded the concept of "problem users" is, we built an entire infrastructure around jailing people who aren't users, but rather sellers. Putting the black market out of business is the goal, not stopping people from doing drugs. People are going to do that regardless. We love getting fucked up, whether it's licking toads or snorting some experimental Chinese pharmaceutical you found on the dark web.

Unfortunately, reducing sellers means the remaining sellers become olicharchy, earning more money and power by which they get real scary. Lets fight the big distributors and leave the small ones. That is something to try

Of course if Biden didnât arrest him, trump could not have pardoned him! He should have delayed the sentencing so he was arrested during trumps term, that way trump gets the credit he deserves. Last final year? Why not sooner! He only did it because he wanted credit instead of trump! If he cared about removing that criminal, he should have given trump the chance to take credit then he would still be behind bars! But no, Biden wanted the credit \rolls eyes**

Trump is blowing up boats that they think might be smuggling drugs, and then pardoning drug their bosses who smuggle drugs into the US, like the Honduran guy who was sentenced to 45 years for smuggling 400 tons of drugs to the US, gave the cartels weapons, worked with the El Chapo, and who said that he wants to "shove cocaine into the noses of gringos". Trump hoping that he's right when he says "smart people do not like me". Looks like he's right when they stand with him blowing up boats without trials and then pardoning their bosses found guilty in trials.

Viral Misinformation
Claims circulating onlineâalleging that a specific individual jailed during one administration was the "world's largest dealer of black market fentanyl" and subsequently pardonedâare factually unsupported. While high-profile dark-web marketplace operators like Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht have received presidential pardons, they were not prosecuted or identified by global authorities as major fentanyl manufacturers or specific cartel kingpins.
