Rumored Trump Running Mate Tom Cotton Pushes For January 6 Pardons
The GOP senator also said he'd accept the election results—if he feels they're "fair and free."
Just a reminder, Tom Cotton lied about being an Army Ranger.
Had to look that up. Holy shit this guy is a knob.
I really hope Trump snags him for VP so we can have a completely tone-deaf slogan like, "Pick Cotton" or "Black Voters Love Cotton." I mean, the satire writes itself.
Unsurprising. I think the real goal is short term rally of J6ers for the sentenceing on July 11.
It's a slow boil...
There's a case going to the SC that would wipe out almost half the convictions.
Republicans are talking about pardons now in prep for a SC vote along party lines, then say Biden is against the SC while trump followed the rule of law by going thru with his trial.
It's why we should have done something about the SC long ago. Republicans keep pulling shit and we don't take up the fight, then act surprised when they use it to their advantage. They were always going to do something big before the election, something where there isn't a lot of time for Biden to act, and if he does he'll be called a lame duck and they'll frame it as 1/6.
The "boots on the ground" are complete idiots, but the ones calling the shots and writing the checks have been planning this shit for a long time and are smart.
We can't afford to just always play defense.
Cosplay fake Army Ranger lil’ Tom
Tom Cotton... was Goebbels too on the nose for Trump?
Stephen Miller is too busy.
It's hard to really compare people that extreme but it's always been my impression that Tom Cotton bought a lot more into the white supremacy fascist bullshit. Tom Cotton and Josh Hawley are the first two names that come to mind when I think genuine "Hitler had some good ideas" fascist.
Josh Hawley is a less famous pick, but I'm sure he has a lot of experience suitable to being a running mate.
these GOP conservatives are too soft on crime. Bleeding heart snowflakes.
We need leaders with the balls to make the hard decisions and get things done.
they may run on freeing the j6ers, but they don't actually care about them. it will go down the memory hole if they get elected and those traitors will rot in jail. the gop doesn't care about them in the slightest.

No it won't. I'd agree with this if there were anything resembling real work involved in it. But if Trump gets re-elected, he can issue a blanket pardon for all of them any time he wants, for any reason or no reason at all. That's like 30 seconds of work scribbling his name across one piece of paper, in exchange for a huge boost to the GOP voting base. Trump would absolutely do that in a heartbeat, even if only for the huge ego boost he'd get from the Proud Boys sucking him off in appreciation, or just to "own teh libz".
