Suck It Up, Buttercup; You DID Build This Fire

Does anyone else find it curious that Jesse Jackson called for a presidential pardon of Hillary Clinton yesterday?

Jesse, leading the “Free Hillary!” movement

Mumbling his way through a prepared statement at the University Michigan in Ann Arbor yesterday Jackson said:

"President Ford said we don't need (Nixon) for trophy. We need to move on. President Nixon wasn't convicted of a crime. He didn't apply for a pardon. (Ford) did it because he thought it would be best for the country.

Had she won the election on November 8th the comparison between President Ford pardoning President Nixon for his assumed crimes may have made sense. Assuming you believe Hillary is guilty of something. Which apparently Jesse Jackson does.

"Hillary Clinton has not been tried, but there are those who want to drag her for the next three years. It will not stop until they find a reason to put her in jail. That would be a travesty."

“Until they find a reason to put her in jail?” Like what, setting up a private server for the sole purpose of protecting her communications from public scrutiny via FOIA requests, setting her lawyers about to destroy evidence, and making classified materials available for foreign hackers? Or was he thinking perhaps about all of the crimes committed by the Clinton Foundation’s “Global Initiative” scam to fund Bill and Hillary’s lifestyle and her presidential campaign?

Never mind all that, remember when Trump said “pussy?” We were not amused.

And as Jesse pointed out yesterday, Trump’s the one who caused this horrible mess and it’s up to him to fix it.

"The one who set the field afire must be the one to put it out," he told the Free Press in a one-on-one interview. "He had the option to pour water on it (the dry field) and let it grow. He didn't do that — he chose to light it on fire. One of my concerns is that we see the division in America now because of that. We see classmates, roommates in a conflict over the way the campaign turned out.

Gee, yeah, who would pour fuel on a volatile fire like that?

Paging President Obama! Fire in aisle 3! Accelerant needed!
