Clyburn just said on CNN that he'd support Biden pardoning Trump

[David Boyle]

Wish I were making it up.

Go make it not happen. Unless you want it to hap...

[David Boyle]

1. I actually have a photo of the screen caption

What if Biden does?

[H2O Man]

2. No!

Please tell me that this is from The Onion!!!!!!

4. No, it's on my TV screen (paused it)

Not mucking around here. Sadly enuf.

[Trueblue1968]

35. No no no no .... A million times no. Trump shpuld be in jail. Not pardoned.

[David Boyle]

43. I'm not disputin'

And I'm not Putin!

5. Jesus Christ help us, indeed

21. Why the hell are Dems so stupid?

Who is asking for Biden to pardon Trump? Why bring this up? Why are they even commenting on this pardon at all, especially to criticize Biden?

They are going by the old play book which no longer applies and we will continue to lose because of it.

6. George Carlin: "It's a big club, and you ain't in it!"

This is, on some level, just a fucking game to most of them in DC, even the ones you admire the most.

[David Boyle]

7. Are we the peons?

A peon, is somebody that powerful people p... I won't say it.

8. Pardon , if Trump gave up the presidency because he is an insurrectist and made Kamala president elect

Fourteenth amendment

Confederate loyalists
Prohibits those who "engaged in insurrection" against the United States from holding any civil, military, or elected office


Nope to Vance, that would be part of the deal of the pardon, since Trump was really ineligible, Vance is out too.

[David Boyle]

10. Wowww!

There's an option!

[kelly1mm]

13. no it is not. VP Elect Vance would become President. nt

[David Boyle]

16. See my recent comment

If miracles happened...

[kelly1mm]

11. If President Trump were to resign, even before Jan. 20th, VP Vance would become President. nt

[David Boyle]

14. But if Trump convinces Vance to resign...

Wish list!

[kelly1mm]

17. Speaker Johnson is next in line. nt

[David Boyle]

18. Well, him too

They can all take a back seat to Kams.

[MacKasey]

56. If they made Kamala speaker as part of the pardon then it's a done deal

Look I'm just brain storming and wishfull thinking, it's late and I should be sleeping

[David Boyle]

59. Me too!

[dpibel]

57. No such thing as President Trump before 1/20

Trump can't resign before he's president, which is not yet, and if he stepped down before 1/20, JD would still not be president.

[David Boyle]

60. Good timing

Thanks.

[arthritisR_US]

19. If he gave it up wouldn't it then go to Vance?

[David Boyle]

20. "See previous responses..."

[arthritisR_US]

24. I just got on and if I screwed up in my reply sorry, I was just

going by your country’s so called amendments /rules…

[David Boyle]

26. Heh

[arthritisR_US]

28. 🤔

[ForgedCrank]

37. Allowing the elite

to choose our leaders for us is what got us into the spot to begin with.
So, no.

[David Boyle]

42. YESSSS!

You are right.

[David Boyle]

9. Biden contact link, if wanted

https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/share/

[2naSalit]

12. Yikes.

[David Boyle]

15. I couldn't believe it.

We got enough problems.

[ellie]

23. No.

[David Boyle]

25. I hope not.

[David Boyle]

27. Maybe Clyburn is confused and thinks he's Qyburn

[brush]

29. WTF is going on? A Dem stalwart seeking favor from dictator trump?

Is everybody going crazy over the Harris loss?

[David Boyle]

30. I don't understand it either

Just reporting on this crazee world...

[CentralMass]

31. WtF ?

[David Boyle]

32. Xactly

Glad I got a photo of it, to reassure myself I didn't hallucinate.

[CentralMass]

33. Does it make a difference ? Or are they going to sweep it completely under the rug as some sort of quid pro quo ?

[David Boyle]

34. Maybe the latter

Ugh.

[jalan48]

36. Is Clyburn a Democrat?

[David Boyle]

39. Rumored to be South Carolinan

...

[jalan48]

41. Just wondered. Thanks.

[David Boyle]

44. Used to be Majority Whip,

just behind Pelosi, Hoyer.

[jalan48]

48. Powerful man in Democratic politics supports pardoning Fascist Trump. Interesting.

[David Boyle]

51. "Dirty deals done dirt cheap"

Sez AC/DC.

[Duncan Grant]

38. I need a link, a source -- I wouldn't be surprised if this were true, but

I can’t find a source at the moment. I’ll look again in the morning.

[David Boyle]

40. I looked too

Hopefully there'll be one. It was on Laura Coates, c. 8:30 p.m. Pacific Time, I think.

[Meowmee]

45. Clyburn is crazy

and insanity rules now. I see NO hope for this country whatsoever... and no one with any courage to stop the train to hell.

[David Boyle]

47. Well, less hope than before

Again, maybe Clyburn's channeling Qyburn!

[Meowmee]

50. That is something that should not be said by anyone ever

and certainly not him and a D. The fact that orange psycho was never held accountable is a lot of what got us here.

[David Boyle]

52. Murphy's Law

[Conjuay]

73. Clyburn is eighty four.

Perhaps it's time for him to step away from the microphone.

[Meowmee]

79. If that is his solution he needs to

But people can be ok at that age to work in politics etc. Although many would retire.

[DJ Synikus Makisimus]

46. Because we need to work together with our friends across the aisle...

to find bipartisan.

The party elite is truly stuck.

[David Boyle]

49. In the mud...

Or somewhere worse.

[JI7]

53. Can Democrats just go on vacation or something

not everything needs a comment from them.

What is the point of this ?

[David Boyle]

54. Senior moment?

Who knows?

[wishstar]

55. omit

[David Boyle]

58. I think I'm correct,

but apologize if not.

I'd have to be seriously hallucinating, tho, I think.

[Meowmee]

68. You are absolutely correct if anybody doesn't believe it go and read the breit Bart article

Apparently, we’re not allowed to link that here so I’m not going to. Yeah I know it’s breitbart but it was said on CNN. Please post your picture as proof for anyone who doesn’t believe that he said that because he did according to the article, which is a disgrace.

Apparently, Dean said the same thing- they’ve all gone crazy imo, and should drop out of the party for good.

If you don’t have the courage to fight this disaster then step out of the way and let someone else do it.

[obamanut2012]

70. John Dean is a Republican

[Meowmee]

78. Yes

I realized that after… I think he is I now. I confused him.

[Cha]

64. John Dean?! I thought he would know

better.

This is Not a Nixon type thing.

[David Boyle]

66. Worse than Nixon, maybe

[David Boyle]

62. Also, see this Reddit

[Cha]

63. OMG.. WTH does TSF need Pres Biden for, Anyway!?

he has the SCOTUS, Senate, & the House. Fuck that NOISE.

Pardon him for Trying to overthrow America and Succeeding!! MF!

Wake UP Some Dems!!

[David Boyle]

65. Waking up is good

Whether "woke" or not.

[electric_blue68]

67. Oh, HELL NO!!!

[LPBBEAR]

69. WTF is wrong with these people???????

Fuck Trump! Put the mofo in prison where he belongs and let his fat ass rot until he croaks.

Clyburn and any Dem who agrees with that shit needs a 2x4 attitude adjustment.

[spanone]

71. Fuck that shit.

[Happy Hoosier]

72. WTF is wrong with these people?

Are they afraid?

[Solly Mack]

74. Video of him saying it. "Yes, I could (support Trump pardon). Absolutely."

Link to tweet

[Emile]

75. How old is Clyburn? He has to be in his 80's.

[ecstatic]

76. maybe he misspoke

I'm sure he was ripped to shreds after that interview. I think we have to move forward with the precedent that Pres Biden / VP Harris set, which is to bring in a new generation of leadership.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

77. No fuckin' way!!

[applegrove]

80. I read Hunter Biden instead of Trump and alerted on this post. Sorry.
