      There’s few things trump won’t do, but reversing a precious president’s pardon opens up a gaping hole in his own escape strategy and kills off a gold egg hen…

      Trump doesn’t care enough about actually achieving anything. He gets exactly the same benefit by simply complaining about Biden commuting his sentence.

        I don’t know what news you’ve been paying attention to, but it sure looks to me like he’s achieving a whole hell of a lot of things he set out to do.

          He’s getting what he wants, for sure. But it’s all part of the firehose. He doesn’t give a fuck about trans kids or vaccines or Ukraine. He cares about gathering money and power. If his agenda stalls, he does not care because he will pivot to a new distraction. He stirs up bigots because they help him get what he really wants. I would be shocked to learn Trump knows who Leonard Peltier is.

              You’re asking the right question, but the answer sucks. His agenda is to gather wealth and power. It makes no difference who gets hurt, who he has to be friends with, which hate groups he promotes, or who dies. He has no morals, no priorities, no political desires beyond obtaining wealth and power. And he’s getting it.

              He also likes it when pretty girls play with his genitals, but I doubt he can still get it up.

                  You don’t think Trump would commit genocide as a distraction from his power grab? I think Trump would commit genocide to distract from a fart.
