Pat Robertson: Trump Must Shut Down Mueller Probe

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by DonViejo (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

Source: National Memo

Reprinted with permission from AlterNet.

Pat Robertson, the 700 Club host who once suggested gay men living with HIV try to infect others through handshakes, went on a rambling monologue in defense of President Donald Trump that suggested he shut down investigations into the Russia scandal and dismiss special prosecutor Bob Mueller.

“He [Trump] can grant a pardon to everybody involved in this thing if he wants to,” Robertson said. “He has every right to shut Mueller down and say, ‘You have gone as far as you need to and I have instructed my Justice Department to close you down.’”

Robertson doesn’t seem interested at all in whether crimes were committed. His only concern is the preservation of Trump’s corrupt presidency.

“He can grant a blanket pardon for everybody involved in everything and say, ‘I pardon them all, it’s all over, case closed,’” Robertson said. “He’s got to shut this thing down, he’s just got to.”

That's the ticket from a senile, supposedly god fearing ten commandant money changer, someone (Manafort / Gates) that has broken laws and dodged taxes and committed conspiracy against the United States .

Just give out legal advice on a conspiracy charges against the United Sates there Roberston and just give them a pardon---------------you know what conspiracy against the United States equates too there right Robertson---------------its like really close to TREASON. Its like really close breaking the rules of the Constitution which your first amendment organizations hides behind, this is not a technicality of registering as a foreign agent

Your rendition of forgiveness is really disgusting...................FU, your only in it for the money, sell prayer rags.

How much money did your organization give to the relief efforts in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands?. That's your job description

I don't recall Robertson once calling for the Benghazi "investigations" to end. I must have missed something.

Judas got 30 pieces of silver, but just once, for selling Christ.

Pat Robertson and his ilk get millions of dollars repeatedly for selling Christ.

Judas was a fool for doing a one-time sale.

According to the story, Judas realized that he had done a terrible thing and took his own life! Pat Robertson and his ilk feel no guilt for selling a twisted version of Christ, because they really don't believe in Jesus, except as a way to make money from millions of wide eyed drooling sheep!!!
