Yeah, I’ve been pretty much reduced to a simple F U as an answer.

Really do despise the ACLU. They endorse black-on-white racism virtually on a daily basis.

Exactly. He has crossed the Rubicon. There is no going back and no reason not to be scorched earth. Do it. Pardon him and watch their heads explode.

Multiply your sentiment by tens of millions...that’s why President Trump won and that’s why this tripling down on stupidity won’t work for the Dems....

There is only one reason that “racism” is the default criticism the left always falls back on. That is because the left has no ideas. They have no clue how to help people out of poverty, they have no clue how to decrease crime or run businesses or protect the environment or basically do anything productive. All they have is that tired old refrain of “racism.” And they use that old refrain over and over to prevent themselves from hearing actual ideas on how to improve things, kind of like “Na-na, I can’t hear you!”

The Democrats are nothing but spoiled unskilled children.

The ACLU is dog whistling Trump, daring him to clear Arpaio.

The media and institutions are throwing the kitchen sink at Trump, desperate to patch together an imaginary impeachment cause.

Would the Left think Trump was less of a racist if he didn’t pardon Arpaio?

Who gives a cr@p about anything the ACLU has to say. They’ve already labelled Trump to be a racist bigot, not pardoning Sheriff Joe won’t change their hate speech constant blabbering.

Just have the Feds plant some Crack on Joe, then Trump can pardon him as a non violent Drug Offender Victim like Obama did.

The expiration date on the ACLU container is well past due.

They are on the wrong side of almost everything.

The ACLU, the Southern Poverty Center, the RATs, the MSM, many RINOS, Soros, both Clintons, Obama, the Congressional Black Caucus, and all Blue States should be censored and punished for their commie/socialist/Nazi activities and lies! I am truly worried that all of them combined are doing all they can to bring down Trump, the Constitution, and the Republic. Resist!

What race are Hispanics, exactly, ACLU?

I’ll wait.

Get this. A friend of the family has a daughter-in-law whose family is from Taiwan. Their family was persecuted by the Communists, stole everything they owned. The D-I-L goes off to college and then joins the ACLU as a lawyer (to fight President Trump, they told us). Let that sink in for a minute.

Half the country no longer cares about empty charges of “racism”. The Ctrl-Left has cried wolf so many times, we no longer listen. The other half hates Trump and everything he says, no matter what. Why would anyone listen to ACLU threats at this point? Pardon Arpaio because it’s the right thing to do.

Not surprised.

IIRC, there’s a paper/study out there that breaks down the political leanings of immigrants and their brood from Communist countries.

Basically, after a generation, two at most, of “being here” there’s very little anti-Communism to be found. Memories tend to be short for many.

Example: Look at the Cubans in FL; they vote less GOP the longer they live here.
