I bet more than half of us didn’t want him to go to jail for something that no one else would have gone to jail for if they weren’t a political pawn.

Of course. We went from "Trump can totally pardon himself" to this and somehow this is going to make bigger headlines with the "law and order" Republicans.
He could have abused his power like this to fix the justice system. Forgive student loans, Codify abortion. And all those other unfulfilled promises.
Instead Biden has fully destroyed the illusion of Democrat commitment to "justice" only to bail out a coke addict.
Both sides anyone?

I had a brother who was an accessory to a crime at 17 and went to prison for three years at 18, and that experience makes me viscerally angry that Hunter Biden is going to skate just because he's a member of the lucky sperm club. This is bullshit.
Just wait until Trump pardons himself
I don't think that's going to be necessary after the SCOTUS ruling on official presidential actions.
But it's Trump. He might do that one day. After Biden pardoned Hunter yesterday, I 100% think he'll issue preemptive pardons for all of his family before his next term ends.

Seems like they are dropping the idea they are not corrupt as the other team. Can only hope that the new idea that would go after the common worker can hold the mask on for a few decades.
Why should he? It's already been made clear there is no law for the ruling class. Mind your place pleb.
Never change, Clintonian dynasty swamp monsters.
- I still believe Anita Hill.
Joe Biden Expresses Regret to Anita Hill, but She Says ‘I’m Sorry’ Is Not Enough - Why were you paid $1M/year from 2014 to 2019 as a board member of Ukrainian energy company Barisma, Hunter?

Israel is violating the ceasefire mean while Bidens drumming up controversy to drown it out. What a pussy.
Even if you think that HB was or will be unfairly treated, look at the size of the ethical door that was just opened. Of all of the "norms" that could have been broken, this is the one?
"Sir will you legalize mariuana and pardon all those black people who have suffered unfair trails"?
"Sir will you close the asylum detention camps pardon all those Mexicans people who have suffered unfair trails"?
Exactly
Ahahahaha
The lamest of ducks
Lmfao. Okay, whatever.
Who cares? I don't like biden at all but this shouldn't make news just because Republicans are fixated on biden. Hunter biden didn't commit anything of value. Yeah sure, those in power can get away with things. Nothing new here.
