You can’t get a better contrast between the Trump administration and the Biden Administration than the pardons issued. All the people Trump pardoned are folks that he thought were punished for their political beliefs and or overcharged were pardoned at a time when it would cause maximum blowback from the media.
Most of those Biden pardoned were those who had aided him in attacking his political foes or enriching him and or enriching him and his family and were pardoned at a point least damaging to his presidency.
Oh and there were the killers as well.
It was hilarious watching the press go after the J6 pardons and acting as if Trump didn’t care about police less than 24 hours after Biden commuted the sentence of Leonard Peltier who killed two FBI agents. along with quite a few other violent criminals.
It is even more ironic that as they still complain about this they are ranting about going after violent thugs that have been let free by blue state authorities directly after committing violence because they came here illegally.
The narratives never change from the press, never.
The biggest contrast so far from Trump term 1 to Trump term 2 is the fact that the inside people are no longer restraining him.
There were a lot of things Trump wanted to do in term 1 that people in the Senate or in the Cabinet or elsewhere repeatedly advised him not to do or secretly tried to stop him from doing and Trump trying to get along went along.
Not any more, like the US army at the Kasserine Pass he learned from his last term and the years in between and is plowing full speed ahead.
One of the best realities of the situation has been Donald Trump telling people to their faces actual reality. From his inaugural speech to Davos Trump has not hesitated in calling a spade a spade and doing so in the face of those who deserve it.
Such frankness in saying the truth aloud is completely foreign to Capital Hill and their minions.
I wonder how they will deal with it?
The biggest Contrast between this week and last week has been press access.
Trump has taken questions every single day and spontaneous questions from hostile press outlets and hasn’t ducked any of them.
The press has had almost nothing to say about their sudden access and the the contrast between a president who IS in charge and a president who isn’t.
But industry has got it and Chrysler has already announced that they will restart one plant in Illinois and build another vehicle in Detroit.
Jobs no doubt that the blue governors of those states will take credit for.
