Has Trump outsmarted everybody?

I didn't understand why he did this but one dispensation as opposed to the innumerable auto pen Biden dispensations even before actual trials...

What is the big deal with autopens? All Presidents use them, even Trump. When you consider how many documents a President has to sign, it's understandable. Thomas Jefferson, the 3rd US President, bought one shortly after they were patented in 1803. Trump reportedly had said he thought the use of an autopen demonstrated that Joe Biden was experiencing "cognitive decline", which Trump himself has been experiencing for years. (With or without using an autopen.)

Note: You don't need to waste your time telling me that is not true. You will never convince me without rock solid evidence that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that what people see with their own eyes is not real.

He's not?
;)
Axel did not watch the above video on 'exposing the hypocrisy' which would have explained it to him. He could for the entertainment value.
If all I read was the New York Times over the last five years, Maybe I would think like him. But now even the NYT is retracting and back pedaling.

So, Do you know how many pardons were given by "Biden" with the auto pen in the last days of his presidency? Guess.

True. But I feel badly for all those who have been misled by media for so long. I believed Walter Cronkite, Chet and David and my local news casters for so long. But eventually I learned. I think I have told the story here about the 98 shootings they had in Chicago on July 4th years ago but the local news ignored it and reported on a lone shooting in California. I called WBAY and demanded to know why when Chicago is only a few hours away from Green Bay. The 'reporter sheepishly said that they reported only what was sent to them. There are no more 'reporters' any more--people who seek out stories and go after them with photograpers...
So people hear only 'what is sent to them'.'
We still don't have all the story on JFK and 9/11. I remember when Bush jr was in front of a class of kindergartners when the aid ran in to tell him about the towers. He just sat there like one of the kids. I would have jumped up and ran to get more info and be a President.
Now we have any number of independent reporters, some legitimate and some not. You need to check them out like Yvonne and Don do.

And when asked about the pardons, Biden claimed to know nothing about many of them. Other Presidents have used the autopen, but it was when a direct signature was not possible or inconvenient. In all those cases however, the sitting President had given express permission for its use. I don't believe it has ever been used for pardons before, and certainly never on the scale of which it was used during the last weeks of the Biden Presidency.
 
As I tried to hint at rudely above, there is no talking to some people. And you can always tell when they stub their toe on the truth: they demand evidence at a level that's impossible, like God speaking directly to them from the afterlife or something.

Their world has crumbled and the pipes they're smoking are full of Copium Poppies.

Nope, sure don't. And I can't say as that is anything I ever think about. I don't particularly like Pardons, but what I think doesn't mean very much. But in my opinion, it always goes back to this:

Don't do the Crime if you don't want to do the Time.

If you commit a crime, get convicted and sent to prison, your political views are not a valid reason the get out of doing your time.

Edit: One of these days I will learn to type all of the words in a sentence.

It is also used for general responses to letters to the president. Like form letters.
 
Sorry... I missed this one. Speaking of missing things...

I watched it. The only thing it explained to me was that she totally missed the point of the No Kings Protests. Not to mention if that was what you thought it was about, you missed it too. The GOP did as well, when they called it the We Hate America Protest. We don't hate America, we hate the way our country is being run into the ground by greedy people and crooked politicians.

If we had a king, he would not have allowed the protests. We have a President who was duly elected and a first amendment although many have been trying to use our laws against us.
Under Biden, I felt like a prisoner in my own country. Covid lock downs, an invasion invited by Biden with no provision for vetting for criminals nor vaccines for people from all corners of the world. The Democratic Senate went along and is still fighting to keep the illegals in the country and wishing for more to provide more votes for the party that gave them everything when we already had more poor and homeless vets than we can handle. A slow and monitored immigration policy would not continue the country into bankruptcy.
The Dems are MAD. Why? because they predicted Trump's policies would cause a crash and depression by March/25 but things are going well, economically. I have been waiting for a new garage door since August because I am on a back burner from new construction around here. They said Trump's bombing run on Iran was reckless and could cause a war. Trump did a surgical take out of Iran's nuclear capablilities. This was a country that was weeks away from completion of these capabilities with money given back to them by Obama. This was a country that pledged ''Death to America" at every turn.
Trump saved our lives; He did not cause world war three. And he ended wars.
He is doing all in his legal power to save this country. The Democrat shutdown to force us to give medicare free to illegals gave him more power. He will not pay ransom.
He is a leader, not a King.
I shudder to think what a Harris Presidency would have been like.

I heard a commentator say that Trump is terrible at being a dictator. He allowed all those demonstrations, and he permits the media to constantly criticize him. Gas prices are lower than they have been for a while and George Stephanopoulos was complaining that the price of Thanksgiving baskets at Walmart were down almost 25% from last years, the lowest price they have been since Trump was last President. How terrible!!! The report said that turkey prices at the Walmart surveyed was down to $0.93 a pound, again the lowest price since Thanksgiving 2019.

I guess Hitler lowered food prices and allowed everybody to demonstrate and criticize him. I just didn't read that in history.

I think people just don't think it is a serious question. If you lived through the past 20 years, you should know, and if you don't...well you live in California...
 
Yeah, it is hard to make a list because it would be so long. I'd say "read Animal Farm again" but Orwell didn't cover sexual perversion, destruction of the family unit, or directly address accumulation of a new slave underclass to undermine the working class.
