Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) pressed New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) to pardon former President Trump following his recent conviction in his hush money trial.

“Donald Trump is a serial liar, cheater, and philanderer, a six-time declarer of corporate bankruptcy, an instigator of insurrection, and a convicted felon who thrives on portraying himself as a victim,” Phillips said in a post on social platform X Friday.

“@GovKathyHochul should pardon him for the good of the country.”

Because that makes total sense. God forbid Donnie face any fucking consequences. Who gives a shit if his base is pissed let them be. We do not kowtow to fascists.

    It’s funny how this never gets brought up as far as non rich-white-person crime.

    Like hey, this guy robbed a liquor store, but for the good of the community I think we should set him free. See? Doesn’t work. But for someone reason when it’s a much more dangerous type of criminal who’s part of the “tribe,” everyone starts nodding their heads and saying yeah, the good of the community, that makes perfect logical sense now that you put it that way.
