Donald Trump just decided he cares more about keeping Roger Stone quiet than winning

I don't have a problem with putting PR as far left

but you immediately hand wave anything and everything to the right of Lenin as "RWNJs"

Good for Trump!

Good for Trump!

And somehow Trump supporters will still believe Trump is the law and order president......

I too saw that not even conservative outhouse could find a good way to spin this.

Did you even look at the link, dumbass? I wasn't quoting Conservative Treehouse.

Process crimes are what vindictive prosecutors resort to when a witness doesn't tell them what they want to hear (even if what they want to hear isn't the truth), and Dirty Cop Mueller is just about as vindictive as they come.

It may be good for Trump but not for your country or the rule of law. It's interesting how conservatives so called principles are dependent upon their politics rather than their politics being based upon their principles.

Wrong bonehead, process crimes are what prosecutors charge defendents with for obstructing justice. As R. Stone said 'I could have turned on Trump, it would have eased my situation greatly, but I didn't.' And because he lied about his own corrupt activity in endeavoring to undermine U.S. elections and covering for Trump, Trump commuted his sentence. You all have shown yourselves to be politically unprincipled even at the expense of your country and democracy.

Ain't it funny how the pinko commies think themselves to be American patriots?

Jim, you're back to saying stupid stuff! That literally makes no sense at all. All it does is show what a dummy you can be.

It's a mixed bag - he's most certainly for law and order for the country, but he looks after himself in ways I'm not at all comfortable.

We've actually got extreme left wing nutters here who defend anarchists as "statue topplers".

Might I ask exactly what it is that you are not at all comfortable with?

Do you have specific quotes of anyone here supporting anarchists defending statue topplers?

It doesn't make sense to Trump supporters.

Trump's actions here are perfectly legal and something many past presidents have done, including Saint Obama. I don't really have a problem with this considering just how corrupt the Mueller investigation was. I suppose you could argue that commuting Stone's sentence is the lesser of two evils. In this case significantly the less.

Another way to look at it, Stone is simply getting the Andrew McCabe treatment. McCabe leaked information to the media and repeatedly lied under oath about it, and yet he remains a free man, so why shouldn't Roger Stone get the same deal?

I would change this to "right-wing" conservatives, but otherwise, you nailed it.

ps. normal conservatives are an endangered species, though...
