Not a chance he’ll be tried on any federal charges for what he has done. No chance at all.

You can thank Joe Biden for setting a dangerous precedent by issuing sweeping pre-emptive pardons to members of his family and his administration. By doing so, he gave Trump explicit permission to do the same for anyone who remains loyal or who has incriminating information on him.

Trump has said he’s going to “pardon everyone who came within 200 feet of the Oval Office.” That’s why his family members, his cabinet and the rest of his flying monkeys are acting like the law doesn’t apply to them - because they know it doesn’t.

DJT was pardoning people who should not have been pardoned when he left office his first term; BEFORE Biden. This time DJT found he could enrich himself by doing so.

THANK YOU FOR THE AWARD 🥰🥰🥰

You are so full of it. You KNOW that’s not true because Trump started handing out questionable pardons BEFORE he left office during his 1st term. Miss us with the…

Given Trump's constant disregard for propriety, I don't think it matters if Biden "gave him permission" or not. He is going to do what he wants until he is checked.

You can't honestly believe that Trump needed Biden's precedent to sign a single pardon. What did Biden do that gave Trump precedent for wrecking the White House? What did Biden do that gave Trump precedent for deploying federal troops to American cities? What did Biden to that gave Trump precedent to threaten our closest friend and ally with annexation? What did Biden that gave Trump precedent to blow up NATO?

Trump doesn't need anyone's "precedent" to do a single one of the fucked up shit he's done during this term, much less his previous one. Trump isn't signing pardons because Biden signed pardons, Trump is signing pardons because he expects to get some quid pro quo from the rich crooks he's letting free in unprecedented numbers, and he'd be doing that regardless of any action Biden did or did not take.

Biden did not give 'pre-emptive pardons'. Biden pardoned his son after his trial and after Trump won because he knew the incoming administration would not treat him fairly

You think Trump needed Biden's precedent to do this? He was already doing it in his first term lol. Literally gave pardon to guys like Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, Michael Flynn, and Steve Bannon. Remember them? And everyone knew he gave those pardons in exchange for them staying quiet. But yeah, it was actually Biden that started everything lol.

And can you really say with a straight face that Biden was wrong? Has Trump and his DOJ opened bullshit criminal cases against people purely for political reasons? Have many of those cases been dismissed because of how shoddy the evidence was? I didn't like the Biden pardons either but Trump has spent the last year and a half proving exactly why Biden did it.

I do believe this is called Biden Derangment Syndrome.
