When will Trump pardon Ghislaine Maxwell? How will MAGA spin that? Why didn't trump just say NO when asked today? Does a pardon = Dem Congress 26?

[DrPepper12]

By Christmas

By spring

By summer

On election day 26 when he knows the walls are closing in

Last day of his term 2028

He won't pardon her.

42% say Trump pardons Maxwell 1/19/29.

[MuddyMole]

Never. Why would he stick his neck out for her?

From a legal perspective, he can't be prosecuted - not only becaue he's the president and controls the DoJ, but because the statute of limitations will have long since expired (and SCOTUS already ruled that extending it in the case of sexual misconduct against minors is unconstitutional).

From a political perspective, there's nothing she could say or do, that would make any difference to his supporters (even if she somehow had video evidence, they'd just say it was an AI fake) - and he's not going to be running for office again anyway.

The only thing at risk is his reputation / legacy, and at this point, a few more guilty verdicts to go along with the many that he already has, and his general colossal failure as a president, aren't going to make much of a difference to that.

If it's a criminal who was involved with Trump, and they know something that would hurt him if they talk, they will either be "eliminated" (if they're too risky) or pardoned once they declare his innocence.

There's no doubt about this. You want proof? The ONLY two people I can think of who have NOT been pardoned or aided by Trump are Rudy Gulliani and Michael Cohen, the latter because he told the truth. There are others certainly, but I don't need to waste my time re-confirming what I already know is true.

[DrPepper12]

Great points. It's also been observed that people who say he's in the Epstein files are always being threatened with lawsuits of slander and liable but he never actually does anything for fear of discovery.

Another very odd thing is he never complained or talks about his attempted assassin in Butler Pennsylvania. You would think if a man who thinks he's so important like Trump thinks of himself that he would plan more about the assassins attempt to try to deprive us of his company when we also obviously enjoy it.

It would not be libel or slander if it's true.

[loveslongnails]

Gee... you think it might have been staged? Hmmm... and some poor supporter gave his life for that shit.

Trump wants the Epstein Files to be swept under the rug.
I highly doubt a pardon would help.

She literally aided her boyfriend to commit human sex trafficking of minors.
This isn’t even about “The Island”, it is more than that because she would recruit and ‘host parties’ at their home in Palm Beach Florida where celebrities including Bill Cosby would visit.

Trump sued The Wall Street Journal for publishing a “false” piece of his “alleged” birthday card to Epstein. Which we know is true because we got the whole birthday album made up by Ghislaine Maxwell herself. In the album are Epstein’s childhood photos, personal private photos, animals mating, women in revealing outfits with big breasts.
Why didn’t he want it released? Because it implicates him, though if he just admitted it then denied being on the Island or going to his house in Palm Beach where he sent Trump’s Spa Employees to then there would be no speculation as much as right now.

Again, we debunked this so I’m moving on. The point being, if he’s trying to cover this up then what else is he hiding?
What else are they hiding? Release The Files, plain and simple. Let the American people be the jury and call for punishment of All Pedophile Elites.

Alec Baldwin, John Kerry, Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, Elon Musk, Donald Trump are just a few names in these documented files released so far. Both sides, politicians and powerful people are on the list so, why hide it? Release the list! It is a nonpartisan issue however you have one party trying desperately to cover it up now. Democrats are the ones releasing it and they are in the minority group of House and Senate also don’t own The White House.

Release the list.

[DrPepper12]

Hear hear!!!

Forgot to mention the whole Arizona Democrat not getting sworn in due to her signature being the only thing standing between forcing a vote on release of whole Epstein Files. Mike Johnson is the one postponing her swearing in, utilizing Govt Shutdown as a deterrent. Corruption! Traitors!

[emeraldsaphire]

If he does he'll wait till the end of his term. That's when they normally do their controversial pardons. During this time everyone is focusing on the new guy, so presidents can do unpopular things. They could also just let her out ant not tell anyone. It wouldn't be ideal because it's risky and she'd have to go into hiding, but for someone with her rap sheet I'd imagine she'd have to go into hiding even with a pardon.

I don't see why they'd bother letting her out, Epstein and Maxwell were just the runners for the slimy DC underbelly. She's not a threat to anyone because even if she says something the court documents are all sealed and the Press won't report it. I think they will just let her rot. She means nothing to them.

[BonzoInBitburg]

They'll spin it like everything else by saying, "At least he's getting rid of illegal aliens" and, "He's bringing back jobs to America." MAGA only has 2 arguments and they use it for EVERYTHING because they aren't for anything, their only stance is against Democrats. Don't confuse MAGA with true conservatives because they aren't the same.

[DrPepper12]

Facts!!!

The comedy, at least, is alive and well:

Always is in MAGA land! The crazy train is the most popular ride!!

[purplepoppy]

End of term when the consequences don't matter. Wouldn't be surprised if he produces the "list" and just pardons everyone on it including himself.

[DrPepper12]

Me neither

[beefcakebradybatson]

MAGA will find a way to spin it. Trump is infallibale to them.

[DrPepper12]

Yes they will...

[Tamera952]

He ABSOLUTELY will, 100% … It’s probably already been baked in

[seeyounexttuesday]

You clowns really think you have a moral high ground to stand on with this Epstein crap, eh?

[DrPepper12]

Yes. Pedos should be hailed is not controversial

[seeyounexttuesday]

You were awfully quiet about Epstein up until 2025. Almost like you didn’t care about his victims until you could make up a lie trying to connect Trump to his sex crimes.

[DrPepper12]

I see you're immunity to logic facts and reason is still 100%. Too bad there's not a vaccine that would remove that herd immunity from maga.

Did it ever occur to you that releasing portions or the entirety of the Epstein files while Maxwell's trial was pending would have the effect of tainting that prosecution?

[seeyounexttuesday]

Her trial was over in 2022. Just to let you know, it's 2025. You'd have a point if there weren't two years after she was convicted.

But you get 2 points for creative spin. That's a new one.

[seeyounexttuesday]

Sorry, 2021. So right after Biden assumed his residency.

[msc545]

Trump is not going to pardon her because he doesn't need to.

[DrPepper12]

Why was she transfered?
Why interviewed by #2 at DoJ?

[msc545]

He is trying tto keep her from talking.

[Anonymous]

have you ever asked yourself, how much better your life would be if you stopped letting Trump live rent free in your head?

[DrPepper12]

Sir. I am a capitalist. TINSTAAFL

[Opinion Owner]

[exitseven]
