Remember the scene in American Graffiti where the kid tries to buy booze ...

And he goes up the counter and orders like 8 different things, and throws 'and a pint of Old Harpers' into the mix (I think that was the booze he was after), hoping to catch the clerk all distracted-like?

I think that's Trump's plan with the whole 'pardoning a bunch of people' thing.

Thinks he's just gonna pull the old 'and one pack of trident gum, and one Roger Stone, and one comb, and a toenail clippers and ...' stunt on the American Public.

Idiot.

But I think it's like a movie trailer where these are the teasers. He has no intention of hiding it and if barr is actually getting uncomfortable, it's only because he wanted it to be secret. The shitgibbon can't grasp such a concept.

so he persuaded a man to go in and buy it for him. The man robbed the store and tossed him the bottle as he ran out.

Mission Accomplished!
