    Really?! He could have at least made it so he was better than Dorito but I guess he’s not.

      He is better. We all know he is. However, that doesn’t make him “good”

      Just be happy we never have to hear “Biden” again. You’ll forget about him pretty quickly once the real shit goes down. $10 bananas, here we come!

        He said that he wouldn’t pardon him though. It was supposed to show that no one was above the law. A stab at Trump trying to be above the law.

    He has the right to do that I guess and the American people have voted against rich and powerful people having consequences for their actions.

    Not what I would have chosen for us

    Honestly? With the absolute thought crime aspect and the way the plea deal was handled, I don’t blame him one bit. There’s no public interest in locking up Hunter Biden.

      Justice for oligarchs wasn’t on the ballot. No matter which party won, the ruling class was going to remain more equal than the rest of us.

      Maybe next time Democrats can do a better job of judging the character of their nominees.

      *Need to give Trump cover so he can pardon all Jan 6 rioters without political consequences.

          He would have had the same political cover he has now that Hunter was pardoned?

          Make it make sense.

            Trump’s going to do whatever the hell he wants and doesn’t give a shit about “cover”.

              The same way he locked up Hillary in 2016 right? Biden is a liar and hypocrite. His sycophant supporters are out of touch with reality.

          He could have done it any time between the 6th and the 20th last time and didn’t. He might do it now, or he might not. It all depends on whether he sees personal advantage in it. Trump is big on loyalty, but it only flows one way. The reality is that Trump despises MAGA.

    He should quickly blanket pardon himself so the Republicans push to codify that a president to pardon himself.

    Then he should arrest and seize the property of all members of the opposition party under some BS national security claim. The Supreme Court has already granted immunity for this sort of actions by presidents so no for another pardon.
