Trump to Pardon Susan B. Anthony

Apparently this was the big pardon he was teasing. Susan B. Anthony was arrested for voting when only men were allowed. On the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment, Trump will posthumously pardon Anthony for illegally voting. Kind of ironic, but otherwise harmless. Glad the pardon is a symbolic pander instead of a Trump crony who doesn't deserve it.

for the amoral, depraved gestational slavery advocates featured at the RNC hate fest next week. This is a pander to the “SBA List” that co-opted Anthony for the forced birth movement.
