Bannon was right to declare war on the “Swamp”.

“Woo hoo! I hope that he also pardons Kyle Rittenhouse.”

Agree.

POTUS cannot pardon state crimes — only federal crimes. State governors can pardon state crimes.

He can’t. Rittenhouse was charged with state crimes, not federal.

President Trump, himself , was another victim of Obama’s totalitarian state.
He knows it, they know it, we know it.
Totalatarian
It was installed and will be used by the C-O-B regieme.
I have to laugh at his junta being insulted with his claim to their 90% support...... which ain’t the case.

There is no way on earth this ass clown got more votes than Obama.

Probably won’t hurt to issue a pardon for Kyle. If the state doesn’t get the conviction they are after, DOJ may come the the rescue with some federal charges.

He can't do that. Rittenhouse is not charged with a federal crime.

Trump can't pardon those charged by state officials.
