How Trump’s Pardons Of Russia Figures Could Backfire If He Is Prosecuted | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC
If anyone needs to go jail, it’s everyone that works for main stream media!
Lovely E. Why couldn’t he pardon ordinary citizens
LOL 4 years of accusing and you still have nothing you people are the lowest dumbest forms of life in this planet, yes dumber than a microbe LOL. Btw Richard Maddow is growing a beard LOL
The Muller investigation proved Trump was innocent. This is illegal propaganda.
Easier to get a pardon than a stimulus check….
If they come for trump, all these dirt dems ie Hilary will be next.
Who is this clown ???
Our President has won. It’s just that this part of corruption has to be exposed. Don’t worry, be happy..
While i know it’s extremely important that we destroy Donald Trump, because, you know, orange man bad, i’d like to point every ones attention to the REAL PROBLEM IN THIS COUNTRY. I encourage everyone reading this to skim over this BS bill. While two sides of the same government point fingers and make us fight each other they continue to get rich.
Why does it take 5,593 pages and 6 months to write a check to the American people? short answer? it doesn’t. it takes 6 months to make their job positions relevant, it takes 5,593 pages to justify giving money to useless bloated government departments, it takes 5,593 pages to give more money to other countries rather than your own citizens. 5,593 pages is all the proof we need of how bloated, wasteful, corrupt, and overpowered our government has become, a government that was supposed to be FOR THE PEOPLE BY THE PEOPLE. it has nothing to do with Trump, or red, or blue, its the two wings on the same bird, and its flying us into ever increasing dependency on them. Did any politician miss their six figure paycheck in the last year?
This has been happening for years, all while the mainstream media and large corporations get us to point fingers at each other.

Where’s Preet ?! He’ll take him down
Trump was included in details that involved in the death of that journalist from the NYT. Jamal K. Was murdered while his fiancé waited in the car for him to get paperwork for the marriage. In the Saudi embassy. He should be tried for EVERY crime he’s accomplice/organizer to.
The only difference between Trump and a mob boss is, that a mob boss could run a casino.
Paul is beautifull.
No it won’t backfire. You people don’t know anything about the law. You can’t even pull a hair from him… Period.
Stop wasting time and move on to constructive news…
Biden and his Administration OWE it to all Americans to hold this current, corrupt administration accountable, especially Trump.
#TheLongestBackfireInRecordedHumanHistory (Fully supervised and controlled)
Joe Biden is too weak to prosecute another old white man there is an invisible bond between these people. It’s called SKULL AND BONES or some other group. Biden wants to maintain his membership and good standing or his son may need a favor. No need to worry yourself, not a dam thing is gonna happen to trump when he leaves office. It’s ALL JUST CLICKBAIT TALK.
Don’t lock Trump up. Trump’s penalty should be community service. Trump should be Given a shoeshine box and posted on capital hill so he Can shine the shoes of all the people he harmed.. which will be 100’s or 1000’s if not 1,000,000’s.and with those tiny hands we can nickname him little spit shine. Xmas just ain’t Xmas without the one you love.
If Trump isn’t held accountable then it opens the door for future presidents to do anything that they want with no fear of prosecution.
Joe Biden is Communist
“IF… he’s prosecuted” That’s a big IF. There’s still a chance the Biden administration will go soft on trump. It’s up to the American people to order Biden to put trump in the slammer.
Wiseman is evil, IMO. Research his role in the illegal and unethical destruction of the Arthur Anderson accounting firm. Think of all the lives he harmed. His terror was also manifested in the Mueller investigation.
