I disagree. It was great! He got all of the msm liars to speculate that it was Flynn, Roger Stone, et al, and they took the bait hook, line and sinker. What a set up! Brilliant!

I’m sure CNN will spin this in such a positive way

"Awesome ! I love it. Great idea President Trump !!!"

I agree. Liberals are always on about women's rights, but none of them ever bothered to consider a pardon for this woman. It takes a Republican to do what the Democrats refuse to do, or don't care enough about to do. They use women when it's convenient and useful to them, but ignore them the rest of the time.

Are you a democrat troll here?

No. I'm a man who voted for Trump in 2016 and who plans on voting for him in November, but also a man who will not be surprised when all the polls that were dead wrong about Hillary Clinton turn out to be dead right about Joe Biden.

I'm disappointed in this. Oh well. It could've been worse. He could've pardoned Mumia Abu-Jamal. Hopefully his son-in-law doesn't read this post and think, "What a great idea!"

"The 19th amendment was the biggest blunder in the history of the U.S.A."

We're not all f-ing stupid you know. If you do, then you're no better than the liberals who like to label everyone. You might want to rethink your tagline.

I love my President and this is fine and dandy (even though unnecessary) but I STILL hold to my belief that some women shouldn’t be allowed to vote.....when you vote with your heart instead of your brain, and vote because someone is cute or vote because everyone else is voting for this or that person......you should sit it out at home.

I like it b/c Trump’s throwing a huge monkey wrench into the Dems holier-than-thou steppin’ n’ fetchin’ identity politics.

* * *

Nice! Kinds of makes ‘em twirl their heads around and go vertigo.

Incumbency is a YUGE advantage, especially when it’s exploited to its fullest by a guy like our President.

No other President even thought of this.

Nor, most likely, did their very visible and outspoken, drum-banging, pro-abortion, woman's rights, show-piece wives, Hillary and Michelle. Female voters might wonder whether those two even talk to their husbands, or are listened to.

Oh wow. Thank you for your post. Yes. I like what Trump has done here especially while the DNC convention is on. Smart political play.

“This was Javanka’s idea, 100%.“

100%. Right...

You have no idea. And his daughter’s name is Ivanka.

But even Ivanka did suggest it, the President wouldn’t have acted on it unless he wanted to, right?

Or do you think President Trump is so weak that he let’s his daughter tell him what to do?

Typical bigoted Trump move, issuing a pardon to a cisgendered Karen. /s

Seriously? You haven't heard "Javanka", the combination of Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump?

The whole world was watching to see if it was Julian Assange. What a moron move. I had hoped Trump was going to listen to Tucker Carlson’s advice.

Nope.

You don’t get the political impact of it, do you?

*scratches head* I guess I don't. Nothing bad against you, though.

I just don't see what pardoning her does today, right now. I mean, SBA has her place in American history, and this really doesn't change it.

If the President thinks this is going to help the country, I would like someone to explain it to me. Not looking for a fight, but for information.
