> And then Trump announced "yeah maybe we let them rot till death, let's see the facts!"
Exactly. Now consider these pardons that Dems provided to their own Left-wing killers and terrorists:
* Linda Evans and Susan Rosenberg, members of the radical Weather Underground organization, both had sentences for weapons and explosives charges commuted.
* Clinton commuted the sentences of 16 members of FALN, a Puerto Rican paramilitary organization that set off 120 bombs in the United States, mostly in New York City and Chicago.
* Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo granted clemency to five men, including the commutation of the 75-years-to-life sentence of David Gilbert, a former member of the radical Weather Underground who in 1981 took part in the robbery of a Brink's armored truck in Rockland County that left two Nyack police officers and a security guard dead.
* Roger Clinton, the president's brother, was pardoned for drug charges after having served the entire sentence more than a decade earlier. Roger Clinton would be charged with drunk driving and disorderly conduct in an unrelated incident within a year of the pardon. He was also briefly alleged to have been utilized in lobbying for the Braswell pardon, among others. However, no wrongdoing was uncovered.
* Harvey Weinig, a former Manhattan lawyer who was sentenced in 1996 to 11 years in prison for facilitating an extortion-kidnapping scheme and helping launder at least $19 million for the Cali cocaine cartel.
* Four Hasidic men from the all-Hasidic village of New Square, New York–Kalmen Stern, Jacob Elbaum, Benjamin Berger and David Goldstein–who in 1999 had been convicted of defrauding the federal government through receiving federal funding for a fictitious Jewish school, had their sentences commuted after lobbying from the village's leader, Grand Rabbi David Twersky
... the list goes on, of course. Fraud, money laundering, drug trafficking, kidnappers, killers, and more. Dems pardoned them all and the media never once gave them shit for it, but Trump needs to "consider the facts" about releasing his own supporters?
Yeah, I think I've heard enough to know what to expect from Trump.
