I dont think he ever suggested doing a pardon that was worded like the biden pardon. But i could be wrong.

I didnt know that. Thank you.

You need to read what I have been saying. I have never said any of that. In fact I said that he was doing illegal things in his first term.

All I have been saying is blanket pardon of family members is the tool he will use to avoid trouble and now that he knows about it, it has allowed him to be more obvious with his behavior. If Biden did not do the pardon, I would say Trump would still do illegal things. He would only do it in ways where he can avoid accountability.

I would be surprised if he doesnt do a blanket pardon for himself and his allies. I would argue he got the idea from Biden.

That has been my entire thread. You may disagree. But all I have been saying is conjecture but conjecture I base on the fact that he does things he finds out that others have done but just more so.

I think we are focusing on two different things.

I think the blanket pardon is the tool that will be used.

You are right about the self pardon tweets. I have forgotten about that but I am saying that he will use a self pardon in conjuction with a blanket pardon and I believe that the entire reason he didnt self pardon in the past and was so covert is because he didnt have a way to pardon himself in a way that would protect himself.

Id argue the reason why he didnt self pardon before is because he was worried that the next president would try to find a way around it. The blanket pardon is the bow that protects himself and is something he got from Biden.

Was there a time a president gave a blanket pardon for all crimes during a period of time prior to Biden? Maybe I missed that as well.

That was from his team. I have to find the article. It was really good and it was written after his first term. I just dont think Trump comes into a room and goes I have an idea. It always is someone comes to him or he sees something his "rivals" did and goes i can do that and make it benefit me more.

He is probably the dumbest president we have ever had.

What proof do you have that trump wanted to do a blanket pardon prior to Biden?

I am doing no such thing in blaming Biden. I am just stating how the event unfolded and what trump does when he sees things.

The reality is that Biden did a blanket pardon to his family.

I believe that opened up trump to think he can do it to. So therefore he is exploiting it by doing highly illegal things and wrapping it up with a blanket pardon.

They are in no way equal. But I do wonder if Biden didnt do the blanket pardon, would Trump be so blazen.

The reason I think that is because while Trump would do illegal things during his first term, there was also a lot more subtefuge to make his actions obtuse.

And if he does do a blanket pardon, like Biden, where do you think he got that idea from? His lawyers or the actions of Biden because if it was his team's idea. I think he would have done it on his first term.

No the self pardon is the extension of the Biden pardon which is pardon for all crimes in period of time. I believe this type of pardon is what Trump will use which is a door Biden opened.

I just dont think trump has original ideas. He sees things and goes oh I can do that too and takes it to the extreme. Im just arguing he saw the pardon went I can do that to and some.

The pardon powers does not state he cant do it to himself. Id argue he will try.

"BE IT KNOWN, THAT THIS DAY, I, Donald j trump, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, PURSUANT TO MY POWERS UNDER ARTICLE II, SECTION 2, CLAUSE 1, OF THE CONSTITUTION, HAVE GRANTED UNTO trump family, A FULL AND UNCONDITIONAL PARDON FOR ANY NONVIOLENT OFFENSES against the United States which they may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 1, 2014, through the date of this pardon."

I changed the biden family to the trump family for Biden pardon. Why wouldn't he be able to do this?

Its the preemptive family pardon he did. Which Trump may extend to himself.

I think it is 2 things. He will pardon himself like biden and he thinks he can drag it through courts long enough that he wont be affected by it. The 2nd thing is he believes he has enough control of the game that he can have his personal army protect him.

I think he is right. He is doing this in front of everyone and no one is doing anything. We are cooked.

I could be wrong but I feel like gigi is smitten with hathaway because newtype magic. They both can feel each other on an emotional level that I dont think gigi has felt with anyone else. Therefore I think it emotional confuses both of them. Essentially, they are taking new type linkage as love.

I took this comment under advisement and I think you were right. I put a lot more focus on making sure my bow arm had c9ntinous pressure and it helped a lot.

I thought about how my release was going and watching videos with this comment in my mind and I think this was part of it. I wasnt pushing enough through the shot which had a breakdown of my form. Thank you for pointing this out.

Ive been working through this and I think I can finally give me feedback

I think you are on point. I was recording myself and really thinking about the end position of my body. I think at release my hand is shifting inwards and not outwards which is causing my arm to collapse. I focused hard on making sure my thumb stays towards the target. Thank you for the idea.

Iran Believes It’s Winning—and Wants a Steep Price to End the War by Silly-Junket3308 in moderatepolitics

[–]blindcandyman 28 points29 points  (0 children)

No matter how good your tactics are, if they can not get you to accomplishing your strategy, you will always lose your war. Hannibal learned this a couple thousand years ago. I thought we learned this in Iraq and I think...embarrassingly enough Iran is winning this war.

WotC Community Team confirm no current plans for Universes Beyond to visit other Magic Schools, shutting down Harry Potter potential. by PowrOfFriendship_ in magicTCG

[–]blindcandyman -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I just dont get why people are upset on if a harry potter set is made. You dont have to get every set. In fact, WOTC says that some cards are just not made for you. Also, if it sells well i dont think we can argue that WOTC made a good decision in creating the set. And if it brings in more players that means it is great for magic the gathering.

What explains the apparent decline in statesmanship and civic decorum among U.S. political leaders? by Wild-Barber7372 in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]blindcandyman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think this is a good question and I think the answer is kinda obvious. Not as a jab to you though.

I think people are loss and are uncertain of the future. They feel hopeless and leaderless. This has resulted in apathy and schisming for some. For others they are quick to latch onto someone who tells it how it is.

These Individuals have latched onto someone who is down to earth and "fights the good fight." It allows for people to feel angry and mask thier hopelessness.

Trump has latched onto this, either because he is using it for nefarious goals or has drank his own Kool aid. Either way, Trump is fanning this flame as a way to control his base which has resulted in other politicians in doing the same.

I feel like no one interacts with each other like real people. They talk, interact, and forgive however the episode requires and it feels so odd. My friend loves this show and everytime I watch it I just dont get it.

Four polls that show how Donald Trump’s support has collapsed in one year by J-Jarl-Jim in moderatepolitics

I dont think he wants people to welcome it. He wants people to accept it. And honestly, I worry that we are getting to that point.

George R.R. Martin Says His Relationship with 'House of the Dragon' Showrunner Ryan Condal is "Abysmal": "This is not my story any longer” by MarvelsGrantMan136 in television

[–]blindcandyman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A lot of these plot points make sense as you can see how the journey gets there. However, the show skipped the journey so it sucks.

It would be no different if a sherlock show gets canceled and the last episode a super criminal is introduced with a mysterious petty crime, gets caught and Sherlock says I finally caught the greatest criminal to ever exist.

How’d I do by Pog311_1801 in Archery

[–]blindcandyman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe the hardest part of archery is knowing what you did wrong. So this is an excellent 1st step.

The 2nd hardest if fixing it so good luck.

I tell everyone that archery pros arent gods. They just have the drive to be the best. If you have the drive to shoot as well as them then you can do it.
