I am here, just busy so I don't comment often. You can't sell out when nobody is buying.

Happy New Year, party people!

I celebrated in the usual way, falling asleep at 10 p.m. watching TV instead of waiting for the ball to drop.

He has dementia. He was not calling the shots. He wasn't in charge. It was Woodrow Wilson 2.0.

You believe these things because some other bubblehead on the right said them, not because any credible evidence supports them.

Other than his son I firmly believe the other pardons were done without Biden's knowledge.

Saying you firmly believe something there is no credible reason to believe is cult thinking. You have no reason to believe it but you do anyway. This kind of thing suggests to me that the right-wing media/MAGA bubble contains too little oxygen to keep a brain alive.

Pardons are absolute. They can not be overturned.

Correct.

It is spectacularly dumb to think Trump is going to prove an autopen was used on a pardon without Biden knowingly granting that pardon. The claim Biden doesn't know what he signed is the kind of asinine thing that MAGA Republicans and Fox News viewers tell each other without ever bothering to ask themselves if there's evidence behind what they are alleging. Or whether it makes any damn sense at all.

Instead of accepting this, the person who began this thread is deflecting discussion with an attack on me, dragging out all the tired arguments that rhetorically outgunned right-wingers make on the Retort when they have staked a claim to a foolish position and can't bear to admit they are wrong.

I'm pretty sure this includes pardons also.

If Trump thinks he can revoke pardons he needs to retake high school civics.

A president can reverse any executive orders by the previous president. Claiming to be doing it because of autopen use is a stupid and meaningless publicity stunt.

Golf is a great sport, especially on public municipal courses where you don't have to put up with obnoxious rich dudes in their matchy matchy adult Garanimals.

The idea that NASCAR and IndyCar should be a single sport is pretty funny. Their styles of racing have nothing in common except being on four wheels.

Happy Thankgiving, everyone! Had a great meal prepared by some out-of-town relatives from Dallas and then we watched the Cowboys outplay the Chiefs.
