If Elected President, Biden Said He Won't Pardon Trump
Townhall ^ | October 14, 2019 | Beth Baumann

Posted on 10/14/2019 8:38:35 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Former Vice President Joe Biden told Iowa Radio he would not pardon President Donald Trump if the president is impeached and removed from office. He was making a clear reference to President Gerald Ford pardoning President Richard Nixon once Nixon was impeached. The pardon kept Nixon from being prosecuted for his role in the Watergate scandal.

“It wouldn’t unite the country,” Biden said about a potential pardon. “You’d say: ‘Wait a minute. I get a parking ticket and I’ve got to pay it. This happens to me and I’ve got to go to jail. This guy does all these things that put us jeopardy and he gets off?"

"And I think President Ford, God love him he’s a good guy, I knew him pretty well, I think if he had to do it over again he wouldn’t have done it…because he didn’t get re-elected," the former vice president said.

And that's all that matters to a life-long politician, getting re-elected.

That’s real nice, Uncle Joe. Just keep on riding that slow rickety train to nowhere. You’ll get there soon. Yes, you will!

Meanwhile, Liz Warren is on a supersonic train, the kind made in Japan. She has already left you in the dust. Are you aware of this yet, Joe? Everyone else is.

I don’t think you need to worry about that, Joe. But it may come up that you’ll ask Trump for a pardon for yourself and/or Hunter.

The child molester (also recorded) keeps doubling down, because his handlers assure him that he and his family will never have to pay for their crimes against America.

Would he pardon Hillary Clinton? Bill Clinton? Barack Hussein Obama? Nancy Pelosi?

It’s easy to say you won’t pardon your political competitor...

What a freaking moron. It’s too late for any real impeachment to occur and/or a conviction. Does this idiot think THIS would be the central desire or concern of the electorate— and they would elect HIM over Trump?

What an idiot. If it did occur Pence would take over and pardon Trump. But it is not even possible for it to occur.

Democrats, and Biden in particular-— grasping for a life ring as the titanic of the cabal sinks. Biden is acting like a psychopathic individual— an old man with a massive LYING ego who thinks he’s Mr. Cool. He does not have the organization- even with the queers running the “impeachment” AND he has no idea the house cleaning that is coming which will change the board game... for ever.

Well, in the snowballs chance Trump loses, Donald can resign, and VP Pence can pardon him before the democrat takes over.

Not that that would really matter. A Trump loss = America RIP.

Nixon was not impeached, he was not removed from office via impeachment. My understanding (and I was a kid so I could have this wrong) was the Ford’s pardon removed the possibility of some further legal prosecution of Nixon.

I would really think a writer from Townhall could get that right.

Plugs is starting to sound as delusional as Kankles, fantasizing all the time about being President.

Another sign of his advancing dementia.

Impeached, Resigned and not tried/convicted in the senate. Ford pardoned him and it covered him like a blanket.

There’s too much use of personality hate Trump preferences as the excuse for quote, impeachment, unquote. It’s a distraction from the real reason. What should be looked into and brought to public attention is the connection to the corruption used by the swamp creatures Trump would put a screeching halt to. And offered as the real reason why democrats are going after Trump.

Hunter Biden move over. Now Nancy Pelosi’s son may be looking to take center stage with the Ukraine controversy. Paul Pelosi, Jr. spent time in Ukraine in 2017.

“BOOM: Nancy Pelosi’s son Paul Pelosi Jr. (who went to Ukraine in 2017) was a board member of Viscoil and executive at its related company NRGLab, which DID ENERGY Business in UKRAINE! And Nancy Pelosi appeared in a promotional video for the company!”

Federalist—According to Burisma’s website, Joseph Cofer Black (Romney adviser) was appointed in February of 2017 and continues to serve on its board. The timelines would indicate that Black and Biden worked together at Burisma, and indeed, web archives from late 2017 show Black and Biden listed simultaneously on the board.

Burisma Paid Joe Biden $900,000 for Lobbying – Ukrainian MP
Ukraine News Agency ^ | October 9th 2019

KYIV. Oct 9 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden received $900,000 for lobbying activities from Burisma Group, Ukraine’s Verkhovna Rada member Andriy Derkach said citing investigation materials.

Derkach publicized documents which, as he said, “describe the mechanism of getting money by Biden Sr.” at a press conference at Interfax-Ukraine’s press center in Kyiv on Wednesday.

“This was the transfer of Burisma Group’s funds for lobbying activities, as investigators believe, personally to Joe Biden through a lobbying company. Funds in the amount of $900,000 were transferred to the U.S.-based company Rosemont Seneca Partners, which according to open sources, in particular, the New York Times, is affiliated with Biden. The payment reference was payment for consultative services,” Derkach said.

This stuff goes back to 2008;
