      I mean his son was the target of politically motivated prosecution. Biden should’ve pardoned other people in similar situations, but pardoning his son wasn’t wrong. In other words, the fact that other people deserved these pardons doesn’t invalidate its use for Hunter.

        Biden legitimized Trump’s claims of politically motivated prosecutions when he pardoned his son.

          I mean it was literally politically motivated so that’s that. Did you want him to martyr his innocent-ish son to not legitimize Trump’s claims? Because I personally wouldn’t expect that from anyone.

      Just giving the people what they voted for. A complete lack of accountability among the leaders of the country and anyone who associates with them.

      You wouldn’t pardon your own son?
