Good thing Trump really "learned his lesson" like Susan Collins

[dillonbalmaseda]

For someone with “so many connections” he sure “doesn’t know anyone”

[dan_hitchman]

Whenever Trump says: "I don't know him/her" = He's/She's a fellow criminal and I know them quite intimately.

Whatever happened to "DRAIN THE SWAMP?" He just pardoned the swamp. This man is walking contradiction.

This is just sickening! Nightmare go away ..please GOD !

[dirtydish]

Drain the Swamp, he says. Commutes sentence of a man literally trying to sell a Senate seat.

[UncleVoodoo]

Kinda destroys that “concerned about corruption” talking point they’ve been trying to push on us.

[radwulfeboraci]

Trump pardons people who have committed crimes he's guilty of.

[IsomSeales]

War criminals... people charged with crimes he’s accused of... this is a joke

[nonearlylove]

Pardon FELONS..! Fire PURPLE HEART VETERANS..! The Republicans GAWD DAMN HERO..???

[bonniekimble]

He gets all these fellow criminals out so they will owe him a favor.

[gregghernandez]

"He seems like a very nice person." So if this Trump's criteria for pardoning a criminal, then I guess it is a good thing that Ted Bundy isn't around anymore.

[SICKFREDO]

"I dont know him!" yeah right you both have the same hair stylist.

[THT]

So, since you don’t know him, than why get involved?

[DaRyteJuan]

Apparently, *“draining the swamp“* means letting corrupt officials out of prison early. We wouldn’t want our prisons being sullied up for all the nice murderers and rapists with swamp-things now would we.

[ZebulonCrawfordTheDesigner]

He's pardoning them because he's privately making deals with them to do his dirty work when they're released. He's playing REAL DIRTY NOW. JUST WATCH.

"I don't know him"
-Donald Trump

[LuG]

Whenever he says he doesn't know someone, they're his closest friends

[djlandlord]

They let this man obstruct the law because now he really thinks now he's gotten away with everything. Now he feels he can be a dictator!

[defrigge]

One impeached criminal helping other criminals, sounds very familiar: that's the essense of Trumpublican identity, and the trademark of what they are these days.
