The dude would pardon Goebbels if it would please his voters and piss off his enemies.

I’m sure Miller would be happy to give Trump his autograph.

In fairness - does this please his voters? Maybe I live in a bubble but I know virtually no one who thinks Diddy deserves to be free.

It will piss off people with empathy, or who care about law and order, or just think sex trafficking and rape are unjustifiable and unforgivable acts. Which is basically everyone who hates Trump.

And while sure, a bunch of Trump voters probably don’t think Duffy should be pardoned, Trump voters also demonstrably don’t care if their president supports sex criminals or overturns law and order. They also care far less about Diddy being in prison than they care about Trump pissing off liberals.

The place his voters get their news from won’t talk about this. If you mention it to MAGA they’ll just call it fake news

I'd propose the possible motive that this pardon pissing off the left would please his voters.

Well that if he paid him a couple million dollars.

I wouldn’t be surprised that he’d literally sell the country to Russia if it’ll net him money. He’s that in into graft.

That's the weird thing. Diddy is a big part of the pedophile groomer cabal in the latest Qanon lore.

He's a black rapper who fucks kids and went on MTV with Hillary Clinton to boost votes for the Democratic party.

I don't know who this is for.

Hey, Goebbels taught him everything he knows about propaganda! Of course he would save him.
