Trump on pardoning the former president of Honduras: "That was a Biden horrible witch hunt. A lot of people in Honduras asked me to do that & I did it. I feel very good about it. If you have some drug dealers in your country and you're the president, you don't necessarily put the president in jail"

He just admitted, w/ in the last month, that he doesn't know who he's pardoning, just that a lot of people are asking him to and so he does. His pardoning power is free wheeling, fast and loose. After today's televised cabinet meeting, statements, post, It's crazyville that's reached another level.

The WHPC needs to follow up and ask the White House to provide the names of the Hondurans that asked him for this pardon. They need to stop accepting his disinformation at face value. Otherwise they are just propagating propaganda.

From what I can find, that investigation began in 2015, so must have continued under Bill Barr. Why didn't they pull the plug then if it was fraudulent? What's he getting out of pardoning this guy now?

The LIES that the felon, traitor, pedophile regurgitate are sinister. Hernandez was found GUILTY for moving 40 Tons of cocaine; like Trump, he’s a gangster— thus the pardon. The investigation started in Trump’s 1st term. No one should be surprised Donnie doesn’t know that.

The Pedophile in Chief pardons, for a fee, the man his last administration jailed. The Guardians of Pedophiles continue to hold Congress hostage on behalf of the most corrupt administration in history.

This guy was up to his waist in drug trafficking. Full on relationships with multiple cartels and working to favor one over the other. One day we’ll find out why this happened. First thought is Roger Stone got paid

Former Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernández—pardoned by Trump while the counting in Honduras’ current presidential election is still in progress—-was accused not only of drug trafficking, but also of election fraud during the 2013 and 2017 Honduran presidential elections. 1/

Former Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernández wasn’t just ‘corrupt’—he was convicted on 3 federal counts tied to trafficking 400+ TONS of cocaine into the U.S. The jury didn’t even blink: UNANIMOUS. Judge handed him 45 years. Trump: "He was treated very badly."

Smelly old man gaslighting journalists and Americans by saying the former president didn’t do anything wrong. It was the citizens of Honduras selling cocaine, even though after being convicted of drug trafficking charges, he was quoted as saying he wanted to "stuff the drugs up the gringos' noses".

I cannot be the only one paying attention who thinks Trump pardoning former President Hernández is just housekeeping because he's already installed his own cocaine mob boss who will answer to him. Don Jr managing the cocaine operation in Central America for the Trump Organization is a dream fit.

Did no-one point out that the case against the former president of Honduras was made by the Trump administration, not Biden? And Hernandez was not a “just the president” bystander. The whole press pool is a fucking disgrace.

And he's listening to "a lot of people in Honduras", but not people here telling him they don't want the National Guard policing their cities, or that groceries are not cheaper. But he was concerned about a man convicted of three counts of drug trafficking and weapons conspiracy. Really?

That's NOT why the former president of Honduras was arrested, prosecuted and sentenced. It wasn't because some drug dealers were in the his country. He was convicted of three counts of drug trafficking and weapons conspiracy,

He took millions in bribes from cartels, including from El Chapo, allowed 500 tons of coke to be smuggled through Honduras to the US, allowed dozens of murders to happen and bragged about stuffing coke up the gringos’ noses. Lots of people begging for the pardon I’m sure…

People in Honduras asked him to pardon the guy? So he did? WTF? He listens to other countries but not his own DOJ? Not his own courts? Juries? Judges? Evidence? No.Just keeps blaming Biden.Biden had nothing to do with this. It would be our INDEPENDENT justice system. good lord, the greed & idiocy.

Trump can sniff out a bribe better than a trained canine can sniff out cocaine in a suitcase. His cult loves it when he lies to them, he says the magic words “Biden witch hunt” and they respond just like Pavlov’s dogs, eagerly gobbling up the juicy bits and begging for more.

US Dept of Justice website: "Hernández abused his powerful positions and authority in Honduras to facilitate the importation of over 400 tons of cocaine into the U.S. Hernández’s co-conspirators were armed with machine guns and destructive devices, including AK-47s, AR-15s, and grenade launchers"

America First? Trump is sending US taxpayers’ money to Israel to ensure free health care for Israelis. Trump is sending US taxpayers’ money to Argentina to bail out Argentinian farmers. Trump is pardoning an ex Honduran President who trafficked drugs into the US. America first, my ass.

Obviously he didn’t look into the case very well . He says many people in Honduras said it was witch hunt . Guess what ? The only people who matter was the American jury that heard all the evidence and convicted him. Trump hates America !

So your pardon team read the entire transcript of the federal trial, right? And looked at the documentary and other evidence, right? And concluded that the verdict of the jury, made up of American citizens, was somehow tricked into convicting him? Can the press please ask real questions?

He’s trying to make a case, albeit a moronic one, that regardless of how involved the president was in the drug operation, you should never jail a country’s president. Good luck with that theory when your time is up TACO.
