He wants to deport “illegal” immigrants because they’re allegedly “violent criminals,” but is about to pardon the white men & women who violently tried to overthrow the US government.

I just don't try and make sense of it much anymore
I really wish cool Americans like you would move here to Australia, and we could just export all of our wankers
I'm game, you have healthcare...which I'll need for all the shit down there trying to kill me.
He's a terrorist. A literal terrorist. He wants absolute control through fear, intimidation, and violence.
Sounds like Biden would be more than justified to take care of Donald through an official act of the president.
I wonder what Biden would look like in a hoodie
Confused
Osama bin Laden killed around 2,977 directly and many others indirectly. Trump killed a lot more with his cuts to benefits and his abysmal covid response, and emboldening of many, many of the vilest elements of society. But guess what? He is still walking free even if he has been convicted of 34 felonies and is guilty of many others (including violent ones) and by all accounts should be spending the rest of his life in prison.
Osama was a chump compared to Trump.
The number I've seen is 800,000 dying due to the shitty Covid response compared to other countries. If even a fraction of that is accurate, it's a staggering number.
I remember shortly before new years 2020, around Christmas time, Trump's administration cut a lot of funding for Meals on Wheels programs that would have fed thousands of people. It was as if he was desperate to be the ultimate scrooge.
Good news was supposed these were mostly his voters, but that doesn't seem to have worked well.
What a fucking asshole.
I still can't believe that January 6th ended up meaning absolutely nothing to voters. Nothing. Wild.
What a god damn waste of time... Every breath this fucking idiot takes is a tragedy.
The more justice is denied, the more people will turn to vigilantism. The two attempts against Trump (so far) and the United Health CEO assassination are merely examples.
Trump is absolutely inciting violence with this act.
Wait, I thought those were liberals posing as right wingers in order to discredit the MAGA people! Now he's going to pardon them? Whose side is he on, anyway?
He's about to set a terrible precedent
America really likes its precedents .. shit like this has to be constrained by law
I am beyond tired of hearing about this orange pile of shit's dumbfuckery and he's not even in office yet.
A traitor pardoning traders. What a shock!
Maybe they gave him a good price. You know how it is with these business types.
are these the traders, Walter ?
I hope it’s either written so broadly that it covers everyone in the US on that day or it’s so narrow that it only applies to like 6 people. Because that would really fit the theme of the shit show that is combining
Let's see if he actually does. These people offer him nothing. Why would he?
Theatrics. It says to his supporters that they're allowed to do anything they want without having to worry about the law
Ah! Now that makes sense.
Hes about to have a very busy first day.
Probably the only busy day he'll have based on his last presidency
Also on Fat Donnie's "1st Day" agenda: Kill all the penguins Build condos on the Moon Dive for pirate treasure in the Bermuda Triangle Sell more cheap watches Beg melanoma for sex for the 16th millionth time Pat eric on the head and give him another juice box Notify the EPA about the oil slick that is donnie jr. Build a ceiling to go with his 'wall' Traffic more children Create more limited edition, gold plated NFTs Open a diaper factory Buy putin a birthday present Remind us that he can remember Man. Woman. TV... Have the government confiscate all the McDonalds chains so they can be his and only his Shit himself
You dropped these. ..............
