Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) pressed New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) to pardon former President Trump following his recent conviction in his hush money trial.

“Donald Trump is a serial liar, cheater, and philanderer, a six-time declarer of corporate bankruptcy, an instigator of insurrection, and a convicted felon who thrives on portraying himself as a victim,” Phillips said in a post on social platform X Friday.

“@GovKathyHochul should pardon him for the good of the country.”

Because that makes total sense. God forbid Donnie face any fucking consequences. Who gives a shit if his base is pissed let them be. We do not kowtow to fascists.

      I don’t know what happened to him but I lived in his district and he was a great breath of fresh air as the first democrat to hold that seat in decades. The NW burbs of the Twin Cities have shifted bluer and I hope they keep the seat.
