Trump says he'll treat Jan. 6 rioters 'fairly' if reelected: 'If it requires pardons, we will give them pardons'

Former President Donald Trump said during a rally in Texas on Saturday that he would consider pardoning those charged in connection with the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, saying he would treat them "fairly" if he were reelected.

At Saturday's rally in Conroe, Tex., Trump said, "If I run, and if I win, we will treat those people from Jan. 6 fairly."

"And if it requires pardons, we will give them pardons," he continued. "Because they are being treated so unfairly."

I think what he should do is straight up publish the names of those who have been held in jail and put up a list of those whom he will pardon in his first week. I believe out of the >700 political prisoners more than 650 will be pardoned. These are straightforward misdemeanor cases that in BLM rioting cases are getting a few HOURS in jail rather than a few months.

Finally, Trump mentions it. Sure took him long enough. He needs to go after the jail. There are some serious laws being broken in there

And Trump should have that list of future pardons up on his website right now. In case anyone missed where I was going with this.

The Trump supporters were not rioters. But if you insist calling them them that on Free Republic. Thus perpetrating the lie. Do so.

Good.

What are the odds that if the GOP takes one or both houses, that there will be a legitimate investigation into Jan 6, and the way the Jan 6 protesters have been treated.

Are we all assuming that these people will be spending the next three years in jail? I am praying and fasting that these people either be released or given their speedy trials immediately!

I am also upset that Trump hasn’t come to their defense as far as finding them decent legal representation, and paying for their legal fees. These people came to support him when he needed it, and paid with their freedom and reputations. Yet he has done nothing to help in their defense, or to attempt to secure freedom for those who truly were just trespassing or whatever.

Couldn’t Trump have already pardoned them between the 6th and leaving office on the 20th?

I remember being very disappointed that after the phony riot on the 6th the fight seemed to go out of the President. He didn’t do much for those last two weeks.

Why didn’t you pardon them when you had the chance, Oh Stable Genius?

There’s no Trump winning unless the fix is fixed.

I'd take Trump's brain over YOURS any day of the week. Are you a billionaire? Nope. You're just a coward taking potshots from behind cover.

Trump was given bad intel by traitors who were supposed to give him good useable information. He did't know that Fauci was involved in actually funding the creation of the virus and seeing that it was spread far and wide. No one did. He was informed that the mRNA COVID vaccine was the best hope to wipe out the disease, so he moved heaven and earth to get it out there. What did YOU do? Sit on your a@@ and complain.

Good for Trump.

AND while Trump’s at it let’s investigate the year and a half BLM and Antifa burned down our cities and caused two billion dollars worth of damage.

We need to know who supplied the pallets of bricks
Who paid for the masks, tents, and walking around money,
The riots stopped on a dime when blue state mayors were blamed by the country. Were Antifa and BLM taking their orders from democrats trying to blame Trump for the chaos?

Many have said there will be no Trump victory unless the voting system is fixed. Ditto with that. Assuming we can minimize the cheating and get Trump elected, in addition to pardoning the innocents of Jan 6, he needs to mobilize a task force to round up all the participants of the voting scandal AND those involved in the PERSECUTION of innocent Jan 6 Americans to include prosecutors and judges.

This will make Congressional Democrats, and Rinos quadruple-down to get him disqualified from running. That, or they’ll just make arrangements to have him knocked off.

The odds? Slim to none. You're talking about gutless Republicans, you know.
