"So a couple of rappers have come out or let’s say one in particular -- YoungBoy. One of his lyrics in 2017 that he put out is "F Donald Trump" and some more disparaging things to say. He had a violent past of assault and battery. Multiple cases of that, and firearm, drug and fraud charges. What sold you on him getting a second chance?" co-host Brian Kilmeade asked her.
"I looked at the age and how this young man grew up. He grew up in a very impoverished neighborhood. And the things that he had to face, NBA YoungBoy growing up. Most of those were gun charges without the guns being discharged," she said.
So I don't know a damn thing about this rapper. Never even heard of him until now TBH. But I am just really curious as to how Trumpers feel about this pardon? Because this seems like a very Dem thing for Trump to do, or at least how MAGA views Dems, as freeing criminals.

Trump is playing politics. He's a sucker for a celebrity endorsement and he knows cozying up to a famous rapper will make him more popular with lefties and black people.
Looks like it was a federal charge for possessing weapons while being a convicted felon. He was about to serve a 23 month sentence. Not like the guy killed anyone.
Not thrilled about the pardon but I don't see it as a hanging offense. Maybe Trump owed someone a favor.

kanye advocated for his pardon
but trump is an idiot, he designated mexican cartels as terrorist organizations then negotiated with them afterwards :facepalm
like he struck a deal with el chapo's son and allowed 17 of their family members into the US, most likely into a witness protection program. for all we know, there's going to be some cartel bosses living in some small town with US marshalls protecting them.
so much for our country's long standing policy of not negotiating with Terrorists. he's setting all sorts of new precedents. :facepalm

He couldn't technically grant him a full pardon, he simply commuted his federal sentence.
He's still serving out the rest of sentence.

You're right actually, it is kind of hypocritical. Brandon pardoning a rapper for a federal gun charge probably would have caused right wing outrage for a few days and the usual circles would have all gotten their clickbait. Orange Face does it and no one seems to mind.
It speaks to the fact that we are judged not only by our actions, but by our intentions. People are willing to give someone the benefit of the doubt if they believe their intentions aren't harmful. The opposite is also true. When people suspect you are out to harm them, they are hypercritical of every move.
Perfect example. Orange Face said the covid vaccine was safe and effective but too many people didn't trust the messenger. A mere few months later Brandon said the vaccine was safe and all of a sudden those same people are in a rush to roll up their sleeve.
Under normal circumstances, no one in their right mind would ever rush to inject themselves with an experimental government vaccine that was rushed to market and then mandated by the higher ups. But because they trusted Brandon, they were willing to let their guard down.
So trustworthy that Brandon.

Everyone took the vaccine immediately guy lol. It wasn't just a United States thing, it was very global. Much bigger than Trump.
The US is only 5% of the world's population.

Sorry but there will be no pivoting or rewriting history.
We all saw the liberals flip flop on the vaccine in real time.
Everyone knows you guys were the original anti-vaxxers.

That never happened. Libs were pro vaccine day 1.
You're the only person I've ever seen try to push this narrative.
Trump had to convince conservatives to get on board. They were the anti-science skeptical ones who thought I put microchips in the vaccine lol.
Trump took the vaccine to convince the right. Not the left.

The stances of politicians are accepted. The public didn't care what any of them said. Trump voters stayed away even though Trump said it was okay. And left leaning people did not.
But really beyond that, almost everyone on both sides over age 50 took it immediately. Go look at the numbers. 2 doses, cars were lined up. They couldn't even get enough out

So the one time Democratic Politicians actually used some logic.... left leaning people ignored and disregarded it. Makes sense to me.

Bill Gates:
"The democrats were never anti-vax!"
Bill Gates 5 minutes after being shown concrete proof:
"Okay the democrat POLITICIANS were anti-vax but not the voters!"
:oldlol:
Yea, no.
There were countless left wing Twitter accounts and prominent Brandon endorsed influencers who parroted every word.

I thought you meant the population. Like ME.
If you were talking about Kamala Harris this whole time, fine.
The people didn't give AF though. On either side. And I don't see Trump running around claiming he saved millions of lives because of his vaccine like he used to either. So if you're just talking about politicians? I think both sides flipped on the vaccine.
Not that any of this matters in a thread about a rapper.

Gtfo with "both sides flipped". Your side is the one that flipped. You've already been shown the proof.
You guys say all the time that Trumpers are in a cult, okay well if Trump is telling everyone the vaccine is great and so get vaccinated... why didn't they??? Why would they need further convincing??
Most people on Team MAGA had already made their decision by the time the vax got released. They didn't need any further convincing. YOU guys were the ones who needed convincing. Because YOUR cult leaders were the ones telling you to stay away.
