Trump tells NFL kneelers he will pardon people they know

Recommended Posts

Trump says he will pardon people treated unfairly by the justice system. Told the players who were kneeling if they knew someone that was treated unfairly he would pardon them. I guarantee people will still complain about this

Trump floats posthumous pardon for Muhammad Ali

 

President Donald Trump said Friday he is considering posthumously pardoning boxer Muhammad Ali, who was convicted in 1967 after refusing military service in Vietnam -- even though Ali's attorney called it "unnecessary."

 

"I'm thinking about Muhammad Ali. I'm thinking about that very seriously and some others," Trump said, while speaking to reporters at the White House before departing for the Group of Seven summit. "And some folks that have sentences that aren't fair."

 

In a statement, Ali's attorney, Ron Tweel, said that although he appreciated "President Trump's sentiment, but a pardon is unnecessary."

"The U.S. Supreme Court overturned the conviction of Muhammad Ali in a unanimous decision in 1971. There is no conviction from which a pardon is needed," he said.

 

 

:lol:

Its dialogue, so its a start. I would love to have these meetings televised. Its my contention that the vast majority of kneelers are doing it for the look at me aspect of things and don't really have a clue why they are doing so. Or at a minimum, could verbalize why or what they are kneeling for.

 

I feel like the pardon is a shiny new toy that Trump just discovered though.

I think there were several who knew and were protesting police action. Trump fanned the flames and some were protesting more as an FU to being told not to or bezing called SOBs.

The pardon is a distraction at this point it seems.

Or he could just be asking the protesters to provide examples of why they're protesting.

I agree with the distraction aspect.

 

Trump is a master of shifting focus of his detractors. People go from one day to the next looking for the next thing to "rip" on Trump for, while he goes on with his business...for the most part accomplishing good things IMO (I get that we are on opposite sides of the fence, but lets put that aside for the sake of this discussion). People will get distracted by the shiny object (Pardons, off the cuff remarks, whatever) while he moves on to other things.

This is why I said I would love to see these things televised. An intelligent discourse between the parties. And to expose the rest of the kneelers (whatever % that is) as frauds.

It is interesting that most if not all Presidents, no matter how much they pardon, do not use the privilege to it's full extent because they are politicians concerned with their legacies. Trump doesn't really care.

 

On the flip side he is calling out players to put up or shut up, my guess is they'll do neither. It's Trump's guess also.

random spout of injustice or racism from cops, but nothing specific

What I think is great is Trump will shove shlt back in the players face when many of these "young aspiring rappers" don't get pardoned. I can't wait for all these cases to get retried in the public either....

 

This is going to be epic trolling by Trump.

Thank God Trump solves this issue. Now he can finally move on to getting the wall built, erasing the national debt and replacing the ACA with something wonderful as promised. :thumbsup:
