And the Democrats wonder why faith in the party has eroded

[bellapisces]

That's not true. It stands for genocide.

[peddlestools]

well, that's true

[progression]

Nah, this was the right move. The problem is that he’s probably going to just pardon his son and no one else. That’s what pisses me off about him and the Dems.

[tinkyfinky]

Fair. This is the only response that has been coherent lol

[katheli]

hasn't he already pardoned quite a lot of people on a federal level? like for small crimes like weed possession and stuff. He can't do anything about state crimes.

[progression]

He has. I’m talking about him doing anything he can within his power, though. He can do MORE. But, I don’t think he will. People are saying we could have a 12 Days of Christmas from Dark Brandon and… idk where they seem to get this confidence in Biden. He’s going to excuse his son and go out quietly. That’s it.

Biden’s use of the pardon has been historically low for any president. It’s part of what makes this stand out so much. In addition his sweeping pardon regarding marijuana crimes released exactly zero people from prison.

Many had hoped he would use his pardon power to correct some of the wrongs of his past. Crime bill etc. He has not.

Pardoning Hunter is prob best for him given what’s coming. But it’s his failure to use this power to alleviate the wrongs done to others that is absolutely infuriating.

Dont try have a different opinion here, the Dems cant do no wrong; ONTD will shit on you.

[maeir]

lol this place shits all over biden and the democratic party. they do a lot wrong in the eyes on ontd (but then again so does everyone).

[scaryt]

It's sad and alarming that everyone is defending this.

I get that where living in a curropt country and that Trump has done and will do worse, but this is still unjust.

Let people complain

[aristobrit]

It's sad that you have no understanding of the entire situation. US Attorneys from all over the US have said if Hunter wasn't Biden's son, he never would have been prosecuted this way.

I agree with @KGreenberg. When I was Chief of the San Jose Branch of the US Attorney's Office, I, too, was responsible for approving charging and declination decisions. I would not have approved any of the charges brought against Hunter Biden. https://t.co/8InXSnJ5LP

Honestly I’m alarmed people care about this. Hunter should’ve never been prosecuted. It’s a nonviolent crime. Biden is old as fuck and already lost a daughter and wife. As if hunter wouldn’t have been targeted in prison.

[scaryt]

"Honestly I’m alarmed people care about this."

There are so many people who are in jail for similar nonviolent crimes. Why does it surprise you that people are mad at the hypocrisy?

[rihaty]

The presidents ability to pardon isn’t fair as it is. He’s going to end up pardoning hundreds of people as they usually do before they leave office.
