As we told you yesterday, President Trump commuted the sentence of Roger Stone, which naturally caused big waves on Capitol Hill. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi even wants Congress to pass a new law:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Trump commuting Roger Stone’s sentence: “I’m recommending that we pass a law that presidents cannot issue a pardon if the crime that the person is in jail for is one that is caused by protecting the President, which this was” https://t.co/ZzhLshSw7I pic.twitter.com/WCwCM5Xvq2

Are Democrats really going to pretend that presidents of their party never granted commutations based on political considerations?
This is some insanity. https://t.co/t0TI6X6LhK

That’s an evergreen tweet when it comes to Pelosi.
She is exactly why the President has pardon power.

Too bad Nancy is too self-unaware to understand that point.

Maybe Trump should tell Pelosi she can have her law as long as it’s coupled with term limits.
