President Trump lashed out on Truth Social Sunday, feeling deeply betrayed after granting a full pardon to Democratic Rep. Henry Cuellar (TX-28) and his wife, only to see Cuellar announce he's running back to the party that turned their back on him.

Trump accused Cuellar of showing a shocking "lack of loyalty" and suggested there would be "no more Mr. Nice Guy" when it comes to pardons for those who show no appreciation for his act of kindness.

Cuellar is a staunch Democrat whose lone beef with his party was the open border policies of former President Joe Biden. For that, Trump had alleged that the Biden Department of Justice went after him and his family. Hence, the pardon.

The couple was charged with bribery, conspiracy to commit bribery, money laundering, conspiracy to commit honest services wire fraud, and acting as an unregistered foreign agent in connection with allegedly accepting nearly $600,000 in bribes from an Azerbaijani energy company and a Mexican bank in exchange for political favors.

But within hours of the unexpected pardon of he and his wife, Cuellar happily announced he would run for reelection. In speaking to reporters after filing, Cuellar thanked the President but downplayed any sense of loyalty, saying "nothing has changed."

President Trump thought something should have changed, given the near-life-altering experience he went through under Biden's DOJ.

EXCERPT

So Trump thought that he was buying Cuellar's "loyalty" with that pardon but then Cuellar returned to the Democrat fold and left Trump high and dry.

Nice....

Trump Explodes After Pardoned Texas Rep. Cuellar Launches Reelection Bid As Dem

President Donald Trump ripped into Democratic Texas Rep. Henry Cuellar on Sunday after the lawmaker said he will seek reelection as part of the Democratic Party despite Trump pardoning him and his wife, Imelda.

Cuellar said Wednesday he will seek reelection as a Democrat, confirming the decision just hours after Trump pardoned him and his wife. In a Sunday post on Truth Social, Trump said Democrats during the Biden administration spent years trying to destroy Cuellar and his family through what he described as aggressive and politically motivated prosecutions.

“Can you imagine??? The Democrats, under the Crooked Joe Biden Administration, who always use extreme force and jail-time to destroy their political opponent, wanted to put Congressman Henry Cuellar, and his wife, Imelda, in PRISON, for 15 years, which I predicted these Radical Left Lunatics would do,” Trump wrote. “And they never stopped wanting to fulfill this evil quest! The Dems mercilessly went after Henry with everything they had!”

Trump said Democrats viciously targeted Cuellar and his family long after losing the 2024 election.
