According to the article about this in the Federalist, one of her followers even tried warning her off saying "I know you're only joking, but you can't say this, that's bribery", and she responded, doubling down on it, "no I'm serious, $2 million cash for a no vote to any Republican"*.
Yeah, I don't take her to be joking at all. I'm also not holding my breath waiting for someone to tell her by serving her with an arrest warrant. I too favor the pre-emptive pardon, with some reference to her universally beloved status and the desire to take into account her complete innocence of social and legal norms.
Oh, Mike, it's better than that. The 'one of her followers' is Louise Mensch, who is the #1 out-front leading Russia-Russia-Russia conspiracy theorist. When even she thinks you've left the realm of the sensible, you should worry.
It's more fun if we don't, don't you think?
ReplyDeleteIsn't this evidence of attempted bribery? I mean... surely this can be prosecuted.
ReplyDeleteIf you ever thought these people were under-paid, that should put an end to it.
ReplyDeleteNo need to prosecute. Res ipsa loquitur here, too.

It is true that she could hardly be clearer about her intentions.
ReplyDeleteI think Trump should pardon her. That would make her head explode.
I was referring to the foolishness of her remarks. But I like the idea of a preemptive pardon.

ReplyDeleteRosie, though, didn't worry.

ReplyDeleteI burst out laughing reading this- He should absolutely do it.
We could start a petition ...
