Pat Robertson: President Trump Should Issue A ‘Blanket Pardon’ And Shut Down Mueller Investigation
Right Wing Watch ^ | | October 30, 2017 2:55 pm | By Kyle MantylaPosted on 10/30/2017, 2:10:12 PM by drewh
On “The 700 Club” this morning, televangelist Pat Robertson reacted to the news that former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort had been indicted by special counsel Robert Mueller by calling on President Trump to issue a blanket pardon of everyone who might be implicated in the probe and to then shut down the investigation entirely.
Robertson claimed that Mueller’s investigation has been inexorably “tainted” by the fact that the Clinton campaign and DNC reportedly helped to fund an opposition research dossier during the campaign that alleged connections between the Trump campaign and Russia, insisting that any indictments that result from the Mueller’s investigation must therefore be dismissed and the investigation quashed.
Trump “can grant a pardon to everybody involved in this thing if he wants to,” Robertson said. “This whole thing has got to be shut down … He has every right to shut Mueller down and say, ‘You have gone as far as you need to and I have instructed my Justice Department to close you down.’”
“He can grant a blanket pardon for everybody involved in everything and say, ‘I pardon them all, it’s all over, case closed,’” Robertson continued. “I think that is what he needs to do … He’s got to shut this thing down, he’s just got to.”

I for one would LOVE to see him issue some “F-U” pardons, just to watch the dems heads explode.

Yes, this should be done immediately. Robertson on target yet again.

I wouldn’t be taking advice from Pat Robertson. He’s been saying some wacky things in recent years.

To: drewhPat needs to shut it.Shouldn’t he be retired by now anyway? Somewhere OUT of the limelight, enjoying his great great grandchildren?
To: drewhThat’s some terrible advice there.I read the entire 31 page indictment, and it is clear that he has been doing as charged, large scale money laundering, hiding assets in foreign banks, lying to mortgage companies.All of this happened well before he was hired by Trump, who hired him for a particular job, and fired him only two months later, when that job – delegate wrangling – was complete.
Perhaps Mueller should resign, but I don’t see any reason for Trump to support Manafort – who is merely a common criminal who got caught.
(snip)
Manafort knew damn well he was cheating his taxes for years, he just thought he was too smart and well connected to ever get caught.
No sympathy from me, and I hope none from Trump either.
To: Jack BlackAll of this happened well before he was hired by Trump, who hired him for a particular job, and fired him only two months later, when that job – delegate wrangling – was complete.Manafort worked for the Trump campaign from March 29 to August 19 of 2016, about four-and-a-half months.
And the indictment states that “In order to hide Ukraine payments from United State authorities, from approximately 2006 through at least 2016, Manafort and Gates laundered the money through scores of United States and foreign corporations, partnerships, and bank accounts.” So while he may have started well before he was hired by Trump, Manafort’s criminality appears to have continued while he was working for the campaign.
Trump: Roy Moore will ‘step aside’ if sexual misconduct allegations are true

President Trump on Thursday believes Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore “will do the right thing and step aside” if the sexual misconduct allegations against him are true, the White House said in a statement.
To: SoFloFreeperAny time these type accusations are made
So he wasn’t groping a 14-year-old?
the Republicans should have a two-word answer: “Bill Clinton.”
Because of all the 14-year-olds that Clinton fondled in cars?
If the demondogs didn’t mind him forcibly raping at least 20 women
Don’t forget that he killed them afterwards and buried their corpses next to Vince Foster.
I read it on Drudge.
then they have nothing to say about a Republican chasing some under-aged tail.
So he WAS groping a 14-year-old?
I’m sorry to be so crude but that is the way it is.

To: Eleutheria5I tweeted Trump and chastised him for throwing a good man Roy under the establishment bus.
I’m sure that just ruined his day.
McConnell will do anything to stay leader. Anything but lead, and get Healthcare and Taxes passed.

Given how quickly McConnell, McCain, Flake, etc. released prepared remarks tells me what I need to know about this. I don’t smell a rat. I smell something much worse – I smell a bought and paid for globalist GOPe pile of BS.

To: Alberta’s ChildPresident Trump can’t “stay out of this.” His silence would be taken as an implicit acknowledgement that the allegations are true.Sure he can. He should have stayed out of the whole primary to begin with.
To: Kevin CSo, you are saying that Moore should stay in the race even if this turns out to be true?It is time to say, Who Gives a Crap about what happened 40 years ago?
The girl he tried to have sex with when she was fourteen?
Nothing horrible happened.
Just a little kiddie-groping, and who here in Freeperville hasn’t done that at one time or another? It’s not like he killed her afterwards. Amirite?
McConnell the Groper has had a hard-on against conservatives for years.
I want Moore in his face every day in the Senate.
Screw the worthless GOP.

When the “who cares about what happened 40 years ago” rhetorical question was posed, I was disappointed that a Chappaquiddick reference didn’t immediately ensue.
Oh, they did – but the hypocrisy threatened to create a “divide by zero” wormhole, so I omitted them.
Does the stated amount of fundraising on this issue among the Freepers seem suspicious to you too? A back of the envelope calculation here suggests that just from Free Republic promises alone, Moore has collected more than he grifted from his own charity just this week alone!
Oh the Chappaquiddick references come fast and furious, just not on that thread. There is a piquant mix of Chappaquiddick, “What about Menendez then, huh???”, and “My granny got married at 13, had 20 kids by age 25 and so feeling up 14 year olds is just fine!” all over the discussion boards there. It’s pretty awful.
What Tommy here has illustrated here is the bizarre willingness of the Freepers to tacitly admit that Roy Moore may be a pedophile, but he is THEIR pedophile gosh darn it! Their best defense against this confusing situation so far is pointing at polls proving that Moore is still in the lead, and their rock solid conviction that the Washington Post bought these allegations. They also seem to find it odd that one of these women is a proven LIBERAL who is unwilling to vote for the guy who creeped on her when she was a teenager.
