Will Trump Eventually Pardon George Santos

[Polishprince]

Fair decision on the part of our President.

Mr. Santos was guilty and did serve the time he would have if he wasn't a friend of Trump.

The only reason why he was so aggressively persecuted by the Garland DOJ is his collaboration with The Donald. If he was a lib, he would have never been sent to prison at all, like Hunter Biden wasn't.

In this case to nothing.

Why is that OK?

Well no, in this case to time served

Why isn’t it? Prisons over way over populated…but at least he’s got a conviction and will continue to pay for his crimes against the United States, unlike Adam Shifty and the xiden crime cabal that got blanket pardons for their crimes

Biden pardons 6 convicted of murder, drug, alcohol crimes

The White House said those pardoned are people who went on to serve their communities.

And I'm supposed to get upset about an 80 year old woman getting a pardon over killing her abusive husband?

I still support the removal of the ability of an elected official to do this but that hardly seems an abusive use of it.

Did you read the article?

KINGSHILL, U.S. Virgin Islands — President Joe Biden has pardoned six people who have served out sentences after convictions on a murder charge and drug- and alcohol-related crimes, including an 80-year-old woman convicted of killing her abusive husband about a half-century ago and a man who pleaded guilty to using a telephone for a cocaine transaction in the 1970s.

The pardons, announced Friday, mean the criminal record of the crimes is now purged. They come a few months after the Democratic president pardoned thousands of people convicted of “simple possession” of marijuana under federal law. He also pardoned three people earlier this year and has commuted the sentences of 75 others.

So, he didn't let them "walk" did he?

So he gets off (because he licks Trump’s ass) and you want people who have never even been charged with crimes to serve sentences

Interesting

Really? I think Menendez might argue with that

Have you forgotten Leonard Peltier?

Killed a cop, and Sleepy Joe let him go scot free

Hunter was convicted of crimes

And the rest should have been and sure maybe had their sentences commuted or lessoned like this guy

What you are ok with is people completely skating on their crimes because they are leaders of your cult

That’s fascism

Menendez was a pure revenge prosecution

He embarrassed Obama and the. vp xiden for their pro Iran polices

I hope he’s freed soon too

He wasnt pardoned he had his sentence commuted

Do you really think that George Santos gives a flying **** about the difference between a pardon and commutation. He is out of prison. Free as a bird. Next up will be Ghislaine.

Quote of the news that seems to have gotten buried: Former congressman George Santos sentenced to more than 7 years in prison
Mark Berman

---

George Santos, the disgraced former congressman who was expelled from the House after being accused of financial misconduct .and telling myriad lies about his background, was sentenced Friday to more than seven years in prison.​

​

...

​

John J. Durham, the interim U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of New York, said after the sentencing that Santos was being held accountable for a years-long trail of deceit and theft that victimized “real people, and they suffered real losses.”​

​

“He’s going to federal prison, and he’s going to be punished for his staggering fraud,” Durham said outside the courthouse.​

​

After the sentencing, Santos left the courthouse and quickly entered a waiting car. His attorneys decried the sentence as unnecessarily harsh.​

​

“In light of the court’s excessive, unprecedented sentence, Mr. Santos plans to seek a pardon from President Trump,” Robert Fantone and Andrew Mancilla, his attorneys, said in a statement. They said Santos would not have decided to pursue a pardon if his sentence were less severe.​

Oh the irony of the above prosecution...


I believe Santos was a true MAGA member. It's my belief, and I could see Trump pardoning him. That is if there is some political gain to be had. Trump is after all a transactional man. Forget that Santos once was linked to Trump in the minds of many, but...

...we all know Trump can also be wildly comfortable with pushing people aside, when he sees no benefits to himself.

So again, Will Trump Eventually Pardon George Santos, and should he?

I definitely would have said "no way".

Fair decision on the part of our President.

Mr. Santos was guilty and did serve the time he would have if he wasn't a friend of Trump.

The ways in which you folks rationalize the fundamentally corrupt things Dotard does are astounding. Equaled only by the twisted view of our justice system you hold, making you feel entitled to see every verdict decided by a jury against a Repub as unjust. It's an alternative reality.

The only reason why he was so aggressively persecuted by the Garland DOJ is his collaboration with The Donald.

His Republican constituents and fellow NY congressmen were disgusted by his repulsive degeneracy, and demanded his vigorous prosecution.

His evasion of justice is just the sort of fanatical, hyper-partisan perversion that epitomizes raw, undiluted, shameless Trumpery, George Santos now being the embodiment of MAGA contempt for morality and evasion of justice, regardless of all his outraged Republican victims.

Everyone knows he was sprung because he rapturously kissed authoritarian butt, no other reason.

If you typed a truism, then to me we are finished. For I know Progressives are already there in what you typed. As trong central government is what you profess to love. May I suggest that instead of not enforcing laws tha tyou actually change the criminal codes. So dowe know that the Patriot Act and the Homeland Security do not screw over people? Or how about going to the airport and forcing 80-year-old people to take off their shoes for inspection because the TSA may have some power hungry, hateful, or sadistic tendencies. And through all of this, people remember. Oh, they remember. So, promise to remove a lot of power form these entities and then we can start to believe. I typed start.

George Santos's conviction has nothing to do with MAGAsouls' hyper-partisanship and their hatred of the majority of Americans who disapprove of Trump

Confronted with a surfeit of incontrovertible evidence, he confessed to his criminality, having scammed his constituents who happened to be Republicans.

He can only scoff as the American justice system now because he knew he could evade his reckoning by shamelessly kissing the blowhard's big, fat bum.
