Presidential hopefuls vying for a spot on Illinois’ March 19 primary ballot had to submit their nominating petitions to the State Board of Elections on Thursday or Friday. The loyalty pledge is not required but is a long-standing tradition that candidates undertake as part of that paperwork.
The problem with trump’s next attempt at an armed rebellion is that he left the J6 traitors rotting in jail even when he was still president. He could have pardoned them all, but didn’t.
Are people really going to risk death or years in the federal pen a second time?
He seems to keep on getting people to sacrifice themselves for him. It’s kind of a lifelong habit
For nothing, too. It’s absolutely bizarre. He has an expansive history of just dumping people the moment they become less than useful, and people still go out of their way to lay under the next bus.
Probably yes. These people aren’t the cream of the crop.
I think with all the chaos at the end of his term that he was talked out of pardoning them all (he wanted to originally). He has made it a promise to pardon most/all on day one when he is “being dictator for a day” as a campaign promise. And the fun of the cult is he 110% doesn’t have to follow through on any of what he says/promises because he despises his followers and they love him for it.
Its like how you deal with killbots. You send wave after wave of troop at them until they hit the limit of their kill count and deactivate.
He wven said publicly he was going to pardon them, but not many have spoken up about it.
