You say that like you might be surprised by it?

Nah. But I thought Kyle did a good job of highlighting it.

I can’t believe this is actually the argument Trump and his diehards are going with. Who on earth finds any of this remotely compelling? Surely at least some of these people know full well that it’s bullshit but are getting paid very well to pretend otherwise.

^Plenty of crazies to scam money out of yet. It would be comical in any other circumstance except pretty much this one - pandemic, death and economic collapse.

The world's superpower government has, quite literally, become a tawdry telesales channel for a farcical, creepy nutcase and his two-bit crooked associates. It's beyond satire, let alone commentary.

It's as if the bloke has read the very worst predictions about himself and set to validate them before his golden ticket expires.

But there's not even any schadenfreude for the sane to collect because, as with Brexit, the batshit mental cases have effectively suicide bombed advanced civilisation.

The Blackwater pardons were creepy psychopath territory:

I was the F.B.I. case agent who led the investigation of the Blackwater massacre in Baghdad. We originally went to Iraq thinking this shooting was some form of innocent civilians caught in the crossfire between Blackwater guards and insurgents. After only one week, we determined that this incident was not as presented by Blackwater personnel and their State Department lackeys, but it was a massacre along the lines of My Lai in Vietnam. Three of the guards were convicted of manslaughter and one of murder.

I only recently became aware of the concerted effort for the pardons, which I understand started with a political push by members of Congress. President Trump should have had staff members review the trial evidence that led to the convictions and read the judges’ opinions and sentencing statements. God forbid they might have actually picked up the phone and called the investigators who built the case. I’m so disgusted with the president’s actions!

Having spent many hours with the innocent Iraqi victims who are permanently maimed and crippled because of the actions of these Blackwater guards, and the heartbroken family members of those killed, I am embarrassed for our country. I believe we will pay a heavy price in our relationships with other countries as a result of these pardons.

I’m so glad that I’m retired and will never again be asked to risk my life and those of my fellow investigators, only to have killers pardoned for purely political reasons.

Needless to say, the tinpot fruitcakery just keeps getting worse. It's incredible how they've slow boiled their way to this level of lowlife criminal representation.

Sounds like another "perfect phone call".

Trump is such a crook and a conman.The staggering thing is that so many people are willing to believe all the bullshit that comes out of his mouth,
