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.
Nixon had to resign to get a pardon
Yes… I too think we should pardon the criminal who has spent his whole life never experiencing consequences for his actions.
Hmm maybe we should try holding people accountable for a change, crazy thought I know
Amen, thank you.
Enjoy your cush consulting job for big oil. “We just need you to do one thing for us, Deaner…”
His family owns Philipps Distilling (yes, the people that make the lime green vodka we used to put in mountain dew bottles in high school). He’ll be fine without the big oil consulting job.
… and this is why we are much better off with Joe Biden as the Democratic Nominee than Dean Phillips.
There’s no way Phillips gets to continue LARPing as a Democrat after this.
But I was assured that this guy was our only chance to resist Biden because Biden was the guy doin a fascist takeover, and we had to nominate someone else instead, who wouldn’t be a fascist. Like Phillips.
Now I’m all perplexed about it. Surely the people saying that wouldn’t have been lying for some duplicitous reason
That would actually be a kickass tweet if only it ended in
/sor an eye-roll emoji.From the other posts it apparently isn’t sarcasm and I’m so confused
I have no idea who this Phillips guy is so must be missing some context.
Democratic representative from Minnesota.
Him being a Democrat and the long list of horribleness followed by ‘he should be pardoned’ is why I initially assumed it was sarcasm.
Apparently Phillips is just a moron.
“You think pardoning is stupid?” Phillips, also a former presidential candidate, said in a Saturday post on X. “Making him a martyr over a payment to a porn star is stupid. (Election charges are entirely different.) It’s energizing his base, generating record sums of campaign cash, and will likely result in an electoral boost.”
Dean Philips can suck a raw turd from Trumps ass any time he likes.
Out of line, but you’re not wrong
I’m not out of line. Dean is a loose cannon and should either be restrained properly or jettisoned.
Fucking hell, I thought this was talking about some Republican named Phillips. The dude is a Democrat?
“Democrat”
Probably a Democrat like Kirsten Sinema was.
I don’t know what happened to him but I lived in his district and he was a great breath of fresh air as the first democrat to hold that seat in decades. The NW burbs of the Twin Cities have shifted bluer and I hope they keep the seat.
Rep. Dean Phillips can go fuck himself with the business end of a rake. What kind of dipshit asshole would admit he’s all that shit and then says pardon him?
The only reason I’d accept a pardon is if he drops out of the race and leaves the country permanently.
And eats a whole bag of fresh horse shite on live TV
“lol” said the governor, “lmao”
It’d be better for the country if the felon was sent to prison immediately.
WT…AF
