      It won’t happen but that’d be such a fucking what the entire establishment would melt.

      I’d pardon him for the lols, at Bidens age you gotta live a little.

            think you’re confusing federal prosecution with federal crimes. I assure you the gunman definitely violated multiple federal laws during the shooting for which biden could pardon him. now stfu and enjoy the joke and stop analyzing everything to death. you’re no fun at parties im sure.

                You’d likely be correct. there are also a host of firearm laws at the federal level. the use of a fake id also has federal implications.

                sadly the other commentor is just a twit who thinks everyone who dislikes the democrats and refuses to vote for either party is somehow more misinformed than they are and are to blame for their preferred candidates loss, and iirc that individual was also one of the losers carrying water defending israel’s genocide during the campaign. pretty disgusting all around. 🤷

              I’m pointing it out because shit like this is why Trump got elected. People keep expecting the Democrats do things they don’t have the ability to do because they don’t understand how the government works.

                No, people keep expecting the democrats to actually support policies and do what is fucking necessary to protect the well being and ensure a strong middle class.

                • democrats had the option to kill the filibuster to get laws passed. they chose not to.
                • democrats had the option it ignore the parliamentarian when it came to minimum wage increase. they chose not to.
                • democrats had the option to pack the SCOTUS to resolve roe v wade. they chose not to.
                • democrats had the option to not support a genocidal nation. they chose not to.
                • democrats had the option to not break strikes. they chose not to.

                need I go on? kindly fuck off. we have no interest in dealing with your nonsense. if democrats want to win again in the future they need to start putting forward candidates who actually are capable of getting shit done that their base want. and enjoy the master class you’re about to get from trump and friends in how government works when people in power dont make excuses.

                  Thanks for proving my point I guess. You don’t understand a simple concept like federalism and won’t listen when someone tries to explain it to you, but you know all about how the government should be run apparently.

                    Na fam. you don’t understand my point. now get lost cretin and take harris’ baggage with you. no one wants it and you’ve provided no new insights into the world. Everyone fully understands who and what trump is. the problem is that harris and your ilk provide nothing of value to anyone but yourselves and as a result no one likes you. Which is why you lost and sadly you’re too dense to realize it even when someone tries to explain it to you.
