I'm just putting it out there that Biden has in the past dealt with nuance and moral issues by taking a pragmatic approach. Such as busing. I'm not saying what he "should" do, just saying that he's been the type to use something like this to make a deal. I don't know what he will do. You don't either, so let's just consider what your reaction would be if he did this.

Let's say he bargained with Republicans to get their cooperation for campaign finance reform laws and strengthening the ACA in exchange for a pardon for Trump. Not making a deal would mean filibuster in the Senate and deadlock. Is that something you'd go all negative about Biden over?
yes but we would need to get something of great value for this..

At the moment, I don't see any progress unless the President and both Houses of Congress are in Democrat control. Mitch McConnell has all the control over legislation and I don't see him making any deals. I just don't. Sorry for the pessimism.

rule of thumb: 1k/day
Ya just need to dynamically update for 12 hours a day, so the the numbers can be spread out over that period to make it update more frequently. These are not accurate daily stats anyway, just a rough guide and Trump and some red states are trying to under count the dead for PR reasons.

Brian Cash said he voted for Sanders in 2016. He voted for Trump in the General. He's to the core Cult of Sanders type.

Cash, who expressed dislike for both the Democratic and Republican parties, said he voted for Bernie Sanders in the 2016 primary, and then Donald Trump in the general election.

Some are predicting up to 3K/day if things and enough people get stupid and I've already seen large numbers of idiots in the media. Hundreds of thousands are traveling to neighboring open states for weekends and holidays, many have "quarantine fever", are eager and blown away by the novel pleasurable stimulation.

He probably voted in the primary to split the ticket, looks like a Trumper and acts like one too, a neo nazi, viking warrior wannabe. One of the "weak" minded at the very least and probably believes a bunch of conspiracy theories. I wouldn't trust anything a guy like that said anyway.

I agree. It's a tall order to get a Democratic Party majority in the Senate, much less get a filibuster-proof one for Democrats in 2020. More than likely, regardless who controls the Senate, we are looking at at least two more years of gridlock if both parties are is unable to compromise.

I'm just curious what you think about using Trump's pardon as a means to get important legislation done.

pardon is federal only.
So it’s ok to pardon him because you can get him another way? Trump’s federal crimes are many.

Just looking at the Ukraine scandal, alone. Every reasonable person knows what he did was criminal. These crimes weren’t only harmful to the US but to another country as well. An ally.

An important question to ask is: what message would this send to the other countries of the world if these crimes were pardoned?

Because of Trump the US is diminishing it’s status of importance on the world stage. I think to give Trump a pardon of any kind would diminish it further.

Nah, he's one of those "both are bad" retards. Cult of Sanders is filled with people in that category.

It doesn't look like he has much respect for "fake" media or the reporters, probably holds them in contempt and is playing them for the party.
Didn't you beat the shit out of people who look like him on the streets of Portland? Think he'd be out of place among that bunch? :D
