Would you support an amendment to the constitution that members of government can't receive pardons?

Pardons for members of government for actions they took from the seat of government just removes the public's ability to hold our government accountable. We already have too little accountability.

Further because pardons are more likely to be political in nature it allows for a regime to entirely protect themselves when and if they commit abuses of power.

Doesn’t matter, since the Constitution is ignored no matter what it says.

I would just like the current laws followed and enforced equally.

No, but the pardon must be for a specific crime, not a blanket overall pardon. Furthermore, the recipient has to publicly admit he is guilty of the crime, and that is why he is receiving the pardon.

There is zero chance that an amendment to the constitution could pass related to any issue.

The constitution appears to be for the benefit of gay jewish niggers

I think the biggest problem with Biden pardons is the fact he is not mentally capable of anything.
He is not pardoning anybody, his fucking team is.. That should be undone and those responsible be jailed.

How about something something you only get an opinion if you pay taxes.

If you pay taxes you did it wrong, apparently.

No.

The only thing I would support is a march on DC, burning that mother fucker down, burning all but the founding documents, every last head on a pike.

Then first order of business for the new guys is to beef up protections of said founding documents. eg.. fuck with 1A, die. Fuck with 2A, die. rinse repeat.

Note that concealed carry permits are fucking with 2A, as are gun free zones.
