Proud Boys leader predicts Trump will pardon him as he bemoans prison food
Proud Boys leader predicts Trump will pardon him as he bemoans prison food
In the wake of his 17-year jail sentence, Joseph Bigg said: "Oh, I know he'll pardon. I believe that with all my heart."
HEY MEDIA!
Stop. Giving. These. Fuckwits. Attention!
On the contrary, make an example of what happens to insurrectionists.
Oh, I completely agree on that point. But let them fade into the dark where cockroaches belong and stop giving them free advertising for their gofundme accounts!
as delusional as ever
Trump May pardon him, despite all his pretending he doesnât know what a proud boy is.
'trump will pardon him with his mind. from his own prison cell'
good luck with that.
Dollars to donuts Trump doesn't even know this dude exists.
irrelevant since he cant pardon anyone while he himself is in prison and disqualified from holding any office
The constitutional qualifications for being president are being a natural-born U.S. citizen, a resident for at least 14 years and over the age of 35. A person can be disqualified by conviction in a Senate impeachment trial, but a criminal conviction does not affect eligibility.

He can become president again even if he's in prison. And then he can pardon anyone including himself.
Or would care to.
I'd pay good money to see his face the moment he realizes that Trump isn't going to help him
Sorry, that isn't a pay to win feature. You'll have to wait the 16 years 11 months and 25 days for him to realize it.
Where's the remind me bot when you need it....
but he believes it with all his heart.. all teaspoon and a half of it..
He thought Trump was gonna pay their lawyers as well.
Not the sharpest tool in the shed this one.
And their finger and thumb in the shape of an L on their forehead.
Dude, he's already forgotten about you, if he ever knew who you were in the first place. He most certainly doesn't care if you rot in jail or not. In fact, he'd probably get off on it if he knew.
If someone told Trump about this guy 4 years from now, he'd be bragging about how there were dudes doing long jailtime for him, because that's how great he is. Getting Biggs out of prison would mean less bragging rights. He literally has an incentive to keep him in there.
We have it here as well but it isn't a free for all. The President receives a list of proposed pardons that have to be vetted one by one by a legal team. Certain offenses are not eligible and only sentences below a given number of years may be pardoned.
It's not like the man can hand out pardons on a whim.
How does it work in the US?
How does it work in the US?
Generally, the pardon power is meant to be a check on the legislative and judicial branch, and thus it is designed to be this powerful.
Obama used his pardon power to free individuals who were nonviolent drug offenders who got sentenced to years often for simple possession. This doesn't mean that he didn't use a slew of lawyers to find these cases. He very much did. But he could, literally, go through a roster of inmates and just pick random people to pardon.
Trump, if reelected, will likely pardon himself and it will need to go through the courts to see if that's even feasible. Given the current nature of our highest court, it likely will be found constitutional.
Nobody knows, including the president. Trump thought he could pardon himself. There aren't any restrictions other than it must be a crime with federal jurisdiction, the only jurisdiction over which the president has direct power. He can even pardon people in advance.
It is very open for abuse but historically hasn't been abused that much. Seems like the states are moving towards making it less powerful.
Trump could have pardoned him on January 7th.
Trump doesn't give a shit about them.
Also, Trump is about to get removed from the ballot in several states.
âAlso, Trump is about to get removed from the ballot in several states.â
I hope youâre correct.
I wouldn't count on the 14th argument. There's going to be so many lawsuits flying around they're going to have to put a jetway at the Supreme Court, and Alito, Kavanaugh, Thomas, and whatsherface will tie themselves in knots to force that shitstain back on us.
If there weren't a million reasons to not vote for Trump already, keeping this POS behind bars is just one more to add to the pile.
Just like Joe Exotic !
Came here to say "have your limo waiting!"
Look at this guy, thinks heâs better than the Tiger King.
Lol trump only cares about himself this dudes in for a wild ride. Don't drop the soap my man.
Yeah, you served your purpose and you failed... enjoy prison.
Thoughts and prayers
I'm guessing, because he's clearly a moron, that he doesn't realize that former presidents don't have pardoning power.
I think he thinks Trump is still president.
Then why do his people keep blaming Biden for things? If Trump is president then he's responsible for checks notes [current gas prices], for example.
Depends how brain damaged you assume this guy is, but he either thinks trump will win in 24 or that trump is secretly the actual for real president. Probably the former but I wouldn't bet on it.
desperation i think
Trump can't pardon the shiv your cellmate sticks into you because you won't stop talking about Trump all the damn time. Just put a little hydroxychloroquine on the wound and walk it off!
lmao, has this guy ever heard Trump's opinion on losers? Don't expect a pardon any time soon, bucko.
Joe exotic already tried this
I don't think he gets that Trump will NEVER be elected again. It's possible for Trump to even wind up in a state or federal penitentiary; assuming that his defense fails to convince a judge.
I remember being one of the fools who thought he wouldnât stand a chance the first time around.
This time around Iâm praying and Iâm not even religious.
I live in red country. I hear them every day. Teachers, lawyers, doctors, nurses, police officers, farmers, constructions workers, welders, even dirt poor disabled welfare recipients. They all say, âI canât wait until Trump gets back in and fixes this mess.â
The media they consume all says heâs innocent. The podcasts they listen to all cheer for the day his political opponents are jailed.
Even with the recording where he pressured officials to find more votes. Even with all of the charges. Even with the republicans who come out and talk about his crimes.
To them itâs all political theater from the left. Itâs all a big conspiracy to take down the greatest man who ever lived.
Iâve heard the words, âpoor old Trump. Itâs a shame what theyâre putting him through, and he just keeps going because he loves America.â
The threat is real. Please please please, donât think for a second he canât win.
I remember telling people it's possible and having a whole bunch of online folk tell me how Stephen Wang from Princeton said there was a 98% chance that Democrats would win.
Nate Silver went from being congratulated for his predictions to getting criticized for mentioning that there were correlated errors which could easily result in a Republican president. It was interesting because Silver wasn't even predicting a Republican victory just a 40% chance it could happen.
Please stop spreading misinformation. Donald Trump cannot win. The 14th amendment prohibits it.
Is Trump the new Jesus or something?
"Thoughts and prayers" or whatever?
Got me to laugh. Thank you.
Nah. Trump actually exists.
He's going to eat shit for a long time.
Bless his freaking heart.
Do you have $2 million?
After inflation it's probably $5 million now, Trump has been living the high life off his donations after all and if there's one constant he is greedy.
Right after he pays his legal bills...
How many gramss of copium he's putting on his prison food as seasoning?
Where is the court room video of his crying and begging?
Well, if the worst comes to pass and that orange bastard actually does become president again, it'll be fun to watch Joey Bigtime Biggs squirm waiting for that mythical pardon. Assuming we're not all nuclear vapor by that point.
Oh honey, don't hold your breath.
Please hold your breath. Just a few more months, you can do it.
I found a whole prison full of Proud Boy guards and warden. They're insidious.
Letâs say that trump wins in 2024. Does this guy have a gofundme that can raise $2 million?
Oh I know I'll win the lottery. I believe that will all my heart
No he won't
They are probably right, trump will pardon them.
Trump literally doesn't understand doing something charitable for someone else.
He literally let his own fanbois and fangirls risk hypothermia after rallies in the winter because of stiffing the bus companies that got them there. TWICE.
Nah, he could have pardoned them before he left office but as usual doesn't give a flying fuck about anyone except himself. These idiots don't realize they were simply tools used and then discarded.
However, I could foresee a scenario where another candidate runs hard on the "pardon all the J6 'political prisoners' platform" and get some traction. That said, they would only follow-through if it got them political points or some other personal gain.
Just like he âdeclassifiedâ those documents
If he won he'd pardon himself for sure, this guy though? Doubt it. But it's a bit of a moot point. Nothing turns out the majority like voting against this fuckstick.
I think so too. With a second term, and nothing to lose.
Regardless of political leanings, if one of the steps in your master plan is "receive pardon from glorious leader once they return to power", you might want to rethink what you're about to do.
Good news then, he's got 17 years to think about it
People in the freaken gulags were waiting for Stalin to pardon them. No one, including myself, wants to accept the existence they almost certainly have and will have hope for saviour. Even if it is the person who put them there.
