Trump does this for this questionable guy because someone whispered his name in his ear and yet Biden only commutes Leonard Peltier and puts him in a position where Trump can either have the FBI harass him to death in home confinement or maybe even send him right back to prison because he merely commuted the sentence rather than pardoning. Fuck Biden. Even when he does something sorta good it's done so ~~incompetently~~ incompletely and badly as to be almost more a taunt than a good deed.

it was a promise to the libertarian party. it was their one condition to free this guy to funnel votes to Trump

lmao Trump can get third party votes by making (and keeping) one promise meanwhile Democrats would rather constantly antagonize third party voters than do absolutely anything those voters want.

I feel like this is him trying to one up Peltier. like he wasn't gonna do the j6 crew until Joe pardoned his fam, and then this is the 1:1 follow-up

Q: How do you know when a politician is lying?

A: Their mouth is open.

To be incompetent at something good they'd first need to intend something good.
