Why is this not an attempt to obstruct justice? seems to me that this is an attempt to keep Manafort quiet.

Giuliani suggests Trump may pardon Manafort after Mueller’s probe

Quote:
“When it’s over, hey, he’s the president of the United States, he retains his pardon power, nobody’s taking that away from him,” Giuliani said on CNN’s “State of the Union” when asked whether Trump would pardon Manafort should he be convicted. “I couldn’t and I don’t want to take any prerogatives away from him.”
This second part sounds like a standard disclaimer, but the offer to pardon Manafort is out there between the lines.
Quote:
“The president has not issued pardons in this investigation. The president is not going to issue pardons in this investigation, and my advice to him as long as I am his lawyer is not to do it because you just cloud what is becoming now a very clear picture of an extremely unfair investigation with no criminality involved of any kind,” Giuliani said.
You are not his lawyer Gui, simply another mouthpiece looking to stay relevant.

Stephen Miller: Congrats, the separation policy that you sold to your boss Mr. Trump will result in images that will crater you both. We will ensure you will never escape them. In your fascist zeal, you forgot that mothers are mothers first, regardless of their politics. #Basta

Miller the sociopath was bragging about being the instigator of this insidious policy, while Donny lies and blames the Dems.

Laura Bush blasts this corrupt, disgusting administration’s policy of separating children of asylum seekers from their parents, the handy work of sociopath Stephen Miller and Donny.

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
It is the Democrats fault for being weak and ineffective with Boarder Security and Crime. Tell them to start thinking about the people devastated by Crime coming from illegal immigration. Change the laws!

Actually Donny, it’s your administration’s policy, and it’s stoking outrage in decent people of all stripes. Oh, and learn to spell “border”, moron.
