How does Rump pardon some drug leaders, then risk American lives to kidnap another?

Has anyone thought about this? Rump is clearly unhinged.

President Donald Trump has issued pardons to several individuals involved in drug trafficking, including former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández, who was convicted of drug-related charges, and Baltimore drug kingpin Garnett Gilbert Smith, who ran a multimillion-dollar cocaine operation. These pardons have raised concerns about their implications for U.S. foreign policy and drug enforcement efforts.

This makes me think these two drug leaders offered him enough money for a pardon, where Maduro hasn't quite settled the money issues yet, but soon will. How long until Rump pardon's him too?

Another point is, if you were sitting in your house and the police suspected you had evidence in a case against you, and they kicked your door in without a warrant, the evidence would not be admissible in court as it was taken illegally. Now Rump has invaded a foreign country, taken their leader, and I would assume he did not have a warrant to do any of this, and is now proceeding to trial with evidence he took illegally.
Kidnapping is a serious crime, or used to be. When will the justice department step in? All of this makes no sense.

You’re absolutely right, none of it makes sense, and I can’t imagine how the MAGAs can justify it.
Trump cares nothing about the drugs, not really. As has been said, he’s pardoned drug dealers.

It’s not even about Maduro as a dictator— if it were Trump wouldn’t be looking to replace him with a U.S. dictator (Steven Miller). He would be working with the opposition candidate that those Venezuelans wanted—Maria Machado (winner of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize—very interesting.)

Trump claims she doesn’t "have the qualifications to lead”—pretty ironic and arrogant for him to make the claim for another country, especially with his record.
Personally, I wouldn’t be surprised if that assessment was sour grapes because Trump clearly didn’t have the “qualifications” for a Nobel Prize…🤔

@bijouxbroussard He is insanely jealous of her Peace Prize.
@JimboSaturn Yes ! That’s how petty (and dangerous) our president is.

@bijouxbroussard Yep he bases foreign policy on personal grievances.
@bijouxbroussard @newjaninev2 You are both correct and the only ones Demented Donnie is fooling are his own brain dead MAGAts!

His excuse for commuting Hernandez’s sentence was that “he wrote [tRUMP] a letter saying how badly he’s being treated” and, BTW, that’s the same flimsy excuse he used to pardon George Santos after barely any time in minimum security (not solitary confinement as Demented Donnie falsely claimed.

None of Demented Donnie’s nor Kegsbreath’s lies hang together on any of this—hence why their lies fall apart instantly and they constantly change their stories.

Welcome to the Demented Donnie crime syndicate!
@bijouxbroussard He’ll NEVER be my president!
