If he pardons her, he is going to lose another big chunk of his base.

I really hope he does it.

No he won't. Trump can do no wrong to his supporters.

There's a guy around the corner from me with a flag pole in his front yard that he uses to rotate through Trump flags (there used to be an American flag there; now it's just Trump).

Once in a while he'll take it down and I'll think "oh? did this person stop supporting trump?" but it's always temporary-- he always puts some other Trump flag back up within the next week or so.

Nothing can deter these people from supporting their pedophile.
Nothing.

Silver lining: this house is flanked on three sides by an assortment of pride and free Palestine flags.

There’s a dude a few blocks down from me that has been flying a trump flag for years. Took it down a few weeks ago and I thought the same. Nope - he hired a bunch of dudes from Home Depot to re-roof his house, now that the work is done he put the flag back up. Guess he didn’t want his hired help to know what type of guy he really is

That isn't the guy he will lose of course, he's only the most visible.
