Trump Haters Should Prepare for Disappointment... Conrad Black

Trump Haters Should Prepare for Disappointment

There is a widespread aversion to the president, but his record in office is increasingly hard to dispute and his attractions as the ultimate single combat warrior are slowly growing.
Conrad Black
- January 21st, 2020


It is not too soon to consider how to assist the millions of Trump-haters in the country in adjusting to the imminent collapse of their hopes and dreams. Their entire political world now rests on a series of absurd suppositions; it is a levitation that defies all laws of nature and politics.


They have propelled themselves into an insane impeachment trial over non-offenses the president did not commit—a trial over matters which are not legally actionable and for which there is no evidence. For this, the Senate and the chief justice of the United States will be tied up for weeks. When it fizzles ignominiously, the anti-Trump media will squawk like hungry parrots that there was a real case, but that the Republican senators refused to recognize it. That hackneyed line is wearing very thin.

The Democrats will not be liberated easily from their addiction to having destructive partisan investigations riveted on the president’s back permanently. This will be a painful process, like all addictive treatments, with desperate cravings, fantasies, relapses, and the torment of cold turkey withdrawals. At some point in the next two or three months, the Democrats are also going to have to face up to the prodigious inadequacy of all their leading presidential candidates.

I dunno, I kinda want Trump-Haters howling in mental anguish when Trump is not voted out of office, and again after the November, 2020 election.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Conrad Black had been convicted of felony fraud and obstruction,
sentenced to 3 1/2 years in federal prison and also fined.
Then he wrote a flattering and obsequious biography of Trump
and guess what transpired ?????
In may of 2019 Trump gave him a full and unconditional pardon!!!!!
Hey are these two a class act or what?????

Your post, as written, gives the impression that Trump's pardon came while Black was in prison (or even before he went to prison). In reality, Trump's pardon came some 7 years after Black was released from prison at the end of his sentence. Why did you omit that detail, @Absalom?

Er..........on the remote chance you're interested in Black's
conviction, the data is available from the Federal Register.
But regardless, say enlightened!!!

Because it's an irrelevant/meaningless triviality as
far as I'm concerned, as the issue is direct and simple.
Trump will caress anyone's rectum that kisses his.
It's called a "quid pro quo".
Got it!!!!!

Your original post omitted entirely relevant information and thereby implied wrong-doing or corruption on Trump's part. Your original post has the appearance of lying by omission. And the second post I've quoted here has the appearance of trying to evade acknowledging that fact.

It is in fact immaterial: Whether he got him out of jail or not, he cleared his name, which is still a massive thing. @Absalom  is right in that. Whether his cynicism is deserved or not might be a question, but not the statement itself.

Apparently you're looking for a fight in which I have zero interest.
I stated facts in black and white from Federal Records about his
dealings w/Black, which speak for themselves.
Trump's public record defines him and nothing need be implied.

A more interesting account of a conviction is in the Conrad Black book.
