Midnight Meme Of The Day!

by Noah

It's clear to any sentient human that Donnie Head Case's recent pardon spree is a blatant attempt to officially normalize criminal activity by the upper class, its henchmen, or anyone who happens to have committed a crime that he finds inspiring. Trump sees himself as judge and jury now. The purpose of the pardon spree is, of course, designed so he can hone in on pardoning his crew of wise guys such as Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, all the rest of the criminal element who serve him. The Trump pardon spree is an effort to provide a framework of normalcy for future pardons of criminals that could more directly affect the Trump Crime Family in a harsher manner. It sends a message that "You are protected if you keep quiet." Trump is also working on essentially codifying complete permissiveness. Talk about your permissive society, Trump has always attempted to lead a life in which all is permissible. Now he is rubbing it in our faces while the fetid likes of goons like Moscow Mitch, Tiki Torch Tucker, and Sleazebag Barr applaud and urge him on.

As Trump's mind becomes more and more untethered from sane reality, seemingly more so every day, I can certainly see a scenario where he decides to turn giving pardons into a game show: "Live from the oval office! It's 'Who Craves A Pardon!'" Trump will pardon his foul cesspool of friends and family and he will give Medals Of Freedom to his favorite scum of the land. Perhaps he will even copy Oprah and have such gifts under the seats of audience members in a theater, at one of his rallies, or at a joint session of Congress; "You get a pardon! You get a pardon! You get a pardon! You get a Medal Of Freedom! You get a Medal Of Freedom! Hey, James Fields, come on down!" For Fields it won't just pardon, it's also going to be "You get a new car!" and "James is a very fine person and I've always felt bad that his car was damaged in Charlottesville. Terrible, That I can tell you."

Trump already overrode the military justice system and pardoned three soldiers either convicted or charged with war crimes and even promoted one of them. Given that bad precedent, Gen. Michael Flynn will be next. See how easy it is now? It's all about altering the context and playing with the public mind. Trump isn't as dumb as we sometimes think, but he is more conniving, cunning, and evil, much more.

Trump has reportedly offered a pardon to Julian Assange if he will publicly say that Trump and Putin weren't in cahoots in the leaking of Democratic emails though Wikileaks ("Russia if you're listening..."). That quid pro quo offer sounds exactly the same as his infamous "perfect phone call" with Ukraine President Selensky which the Republicans in the U.S. $enate let him get away with. There will be many, many more.

What's next? One thing we do know is that Trump will just continue to push it further and further, egged on by his sleazebag lawyers like Alan Derschowitz and Russo-Republican $enators who have said nothing he does or can do is wrong. So, how long before Madman Trump decides that Ted Bundy was just a "pussy grabber" and gives him a posthumous pardon? How long before he proudly announces similar pardons for James Earl Ray and Edgar Ray Killen? You know he's already had that republican wet dream. Can't you see Tiki Torch Tucker orgasming on TV over that one? Once that's done, Trump will decree that no street, avenue, boulevard or building in the United States can be named after MLK, and he will do it to the applause and cheers of his supporters and voters.

The list in tonight's meme meant to be a joke but it's also the joke we are living in. It's just a start. It won't matter what the people he pardons were convicted of. It will only matter that he relates to them and/or their crime in some way. They are his people. He will see it as being empowered to right what his sick brain sees as old legal wrongs. Just wait 'til he appoints Martin Shkreli to be his new head of the Food & Drug Administration or, maybe, the Treasury.

I'll leave you with this one for today: Every rich white collar criminal who Trump has now pardoned of will pardon will be free to donate as much as they want to the campaigns of not just Trump but his entire Republican Party and you can bet that is part of the standard Trump pardon quid pro quo. No check-No Pardon. Pardons Promised-Checks Delivered.
