>>Bush never did this
*********************
because he was and is a major prick. The Bushes are enthralled with themselves, arrogant, selfish, and entitled. To them, the rest of us are, well, .........deplorables!

But DJT has genuine compassion for The Forgotten Man, for the Common Man, etc. We are truly blessed to have him as President.

Yes, Bush spent his effort on pardoning Bankster felons and making their restitution orders go away.

Excellent news. Back in 2016 I posted that pardoning Libby was one of my three agenda items for President Trump.

Post #40:

The pardon should come with an explanation of the reasons that Libby should never have been prosecuted. Just as Special Counsel Robert Mueller knows that Trump did not collude with the Russians, Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald knew that Valerie Plame had been outed by Richard Armitage, not Scooter Libby. He went after Libby anyway. It was a political prosecution, a disgusting abuse of power.

And let's not forget who appointed Patrick Fitzgerald: James Comey.

Sweet...should have been done by 43. DjT is clearly committed to righting many wrongs.
