For me regardless of whether you are on the left or right, the idea that one person can pardon someone for a crime is mental.

In the US, the President can pardon someone for offences they’ve yet to be convicted of. They don't even have to have been indicted.Quote:

Trump laughs as one of his supporters calls Obama a monkey.

The guy shouted, “spygate”, it was clear as day. I know that 99.9% of you here hate Trump, but you have to admit, this story is a classic case of fake news.
Seems pretty clear to me.

Jesus Christ. What a pathetic, nasty racist piece of garbage. And all the folk that laughed as well.Quote:

Just to be clear, that comment was aimed at Trump. I'm not sure why I'm shocked hearing that after everything he's done but it's mind blowing that the most powerful person in the world reacted like that to a black man being called a monkey.Quote:

I've heard both and if you think one before listening then you'll hear that.Quote:
