Even those posts , they were critical of Trump, stating that he only did it to get votes .

Thats not really praise , now is it .

Which proves my point, anything Trump does , Lefties will criticize him , and find an angle to do so .

You have no evidence whatsoever of what you claim.  None.  Zilch.  Nada.  Nothing but conspiracy theory.  Go ahead and prove me wrong.  And, no, I don't care what you think.  Prove me wrong.  Show some evidence.

A little removed from OP but how about  Trump declaring "If I do not win this election it will be because it was  rigged ! "

A while back, when The Don was doing his 'apprentice' stuff on TV, he was right at the top of who US ladies would most like to spend the next 24 hours with.

 

The ladies still secretly like him. He is simply reinforcing his popularity, ready for his second term.

A claim is made that Trump's pardon of Anthony is strictly self-serving.  I'm disputing it.  How is that not related to the OP.  Explain.

An example of Trump providing a pre-emptive "victim " card should he lose the election.

I asked you to explain how my post was not related to the OP, not to hear your take on why you think Trump pardoned her.

Being the nast vindictive child that he is i would not be surprised if he is looking for some criminals kamala has prosecuted to be pardoned.

i can guarantee you that there is not an ounce of sincerity in any politician roaming this planet.

Anything they utter is the result of hours in conference rooms trying to work out the strategy which

will appeal to the greatest amount of voters.

Just go to their past history and you will find more twists and turnarounds than a hula dancer on LSD

A convenient case about an old issues which, unlike more recent feminist causes, is not going to offend the 'morality' of his ultraconservatice core electorate.

Yes, because Hillary Clinton did not do that for the last 3-4 years.

Yes, if you have nothing else, you can always play the Clinton/Obama/Soros card.

Perhaps some of those "criminals" who ended up in jail due to her Brady violations? (The ones she refused to answer for when questioned about them by Tulsi Gabbard in the 2016 Dem. primaries.)

Funny that while Trump allegedly honors her fight for right to vote, he has engaged in a national strategy to deprive many Americans the same right and questions the legitimacy of the vote if he loses; especially with focus on immigrants and minorities being vote cheaters.

In effect Trump dishonors her through political contortion.

If I understand correctly, Susan B. Anthony was quite proud of the charge and wore it as a badge of honor. Women today would be better off with better pay, cheaper healthcare and childcare, affordable and accessible family planning and the list goes on and on. Pardoning Susan B Anthony doesn't cost anything and doesn't lose him the neanderthal vote.

So what's wrong with them?

Well, Trump received a significant number of votes from white women but not women in general. Currently 62% of women polled claim they are not voting for Trump. That is 62% of more than half of the adult population.

I think he does that because he wants the same.

Maybe in 100 or 200 years someone will posthumously pardon Trump.

I don't think it will happen much earlier because lots of generations will remember him. But maybe one day in the far away future. Maybe Trump will dream about that.

One can sense the utter desperation from Trump as he gets closer and closer to the most humiliating loss of his lifetime. See ya Don!

Earlier we had a discussion about the letter sent to publishers by "We Have Her Back" group.  You insisted there were no underlying motives behind the letter and that you take it at face value.  Just curious.  Do you take Trump's pardon of Susan B. Anthony on face value or do read nefarious or self-serving motives by Trump into it?

We can see how self serving Trump is in regards to women's right by looking at his 180 degree flip-flop on reproductive rights. Trump was a strong supporter of abortion rights. Strangely enough he turned into an ardent foe when he campaigned for the nomination and since.

Tug you have a strange sense of logic.  Trump has done nothing to alter women's reproductiver rights.  In terms of social security that program has been bankrupt for decades long long long before Trump ever even considered running for office.  I guess you have no problem with Biden saying he was deliberately picking a woman and a black woman.  But as an Anti Trumper I suppose you don't look at that as pandering to women and blacks to gain their votes.

Depends on your defining, "significant". Glad you did not grossly overstate by recognizing it was not the majority. Ah right, the majority of the popular vote went against him in 2016 and you are betting his words, policies and actions have gained more support over his time in the White House.

Next is to pardon any Confederate War Heroes to gain the vote of those defending the Confederate War Monuments.
