Left wing authoritarian LUL im not a sanders stan, im actually voting for a neoliberal, bloomberg/klobuchar/biden. And yes you can tell that is a prevailing ideology when no trump supporter has a problem with preferring russians, a foreign autocracy over democrats. Just like how sometimes sanders stans are way too comfortable with anti semites, trump supporters are also way too comfortable with russian stooges ( manafort, mike flynn, lev parnas, roger stone, carter page, erik prince, rex tillerson)
There is something about this situation with the DOJ and Stone that I don't understand...
If Trump truly feels this whole thing is a sham trial why doesn't he just pardon Stone? Does he need to be sentenced first? Is there some other technical reason why he can't?
You can't tell me it's because of the optics...Trump's base would love it and that's all he cares about. Why get Barr to reduce sentencing for a trial Trump feels isn't legit at all?
Something doesn't add up here.

"Own the libs" is the core philosophy of a non insignificant part of the Trump base. Maybe not the rest but you can't really argue that piece.
That isn't exactly a stellar stance to have.
So is it okay to cherry pick examples to represent the broad population or not? I'm always forgetting the rule, unless this another "rules for thee but not for me" thing.
Plus, considering how anyone who strays from the accepted narrative gets labeled a Russian asset/bot:
Tulsi doesn't play nice with establishment Democrats: Russian asset.
Movie gets bad reviews: Russian bots.
Someone in Trump's cabinet once mentioned Russia at some point in the past: obviously a Russian agent.
I'd say we're all Russian all this blessed day!
she was never called a russian asset, thats literally fake news
clinton never NAMED tulsi
she said there was a FEMALE candidate, that was a FAVORITE of the russians, meaning she believed tulsi had policy that russia would like, which is undeniable.
She said that female candidate is an asset to republicans in dividing the dem party like sanders did in 2016
get your facts straight before you spew BS.
And yes russian bots are real it was well documented in the mueller report, mueller a life long establishment republican, someone you cant call a "triggered lib" And alot of people in his campaign team have been indicted for lying about connections to russia to congress. its literally a fact.

no, you could of easily voted for bush, marco rubio, kasich, ted cruz, or ben carson, who werent favorites of the russians, ( not assets or agents, favorites)
Instead in the primary you chose a guy who asked the russians to hack hillarys emails because he " triggered the libs" when other candidates would get the same policies but with less lawbreaking and help with the russians, so i do have to believe that the russian assistance is a feature of your support for trump that the other candidates lacked
Why bother attempting to interfere with the sentencing if Trump is going to inevitably pardon him? Whether he is sentenced to one year, five years, ten years, even a hundred years in prison, it would make no difference if Trump is going to pardon him regardless.
I know Trump is a literal retard, but it makes no sense whatsoever to get involved in this unless he wasn't going to pardon him... If he is going to pardon him, doing this ONLY hurts him, it doesn't accomplish anything at all, legitimately nothing to be gained in even the slightest way; all it does it make him look even worse than he already does and increases the scrutiny on him even further.
so Trump is just openly bragging about putting Barr on the case to give Stone a good deal.
Awesome, that's cool that we're just not even dressing up naked corruption.
Maybe Trump's impeachment victory is the second best thing that could happen for Democrats. Now Trump feels he is free to be himself. So, we get to see how well open and blatant corruption plays to anybody not drinking the Kool-Aid.
