    Biden has always been a piece of shit. That said, he’s old, his other son is dead, and his loser son got caught up in a shitstorm that had less to do with justice and everything to do with politics and optics. The country decided that it is happy to go down the a fully corrupt, inept and fascist rabbit hole, and Biden opted to save his loser son and tell everyone to go fuck themselves and go suck an mushroom shaped cock.

    but

    EDIT: Don’t get mad at an old man for choosing to save his son. Be mad at a system that allows a man to abuse his power to protect his friends and family from consequences. For once, a proper use of “Don’t hate the player, hate the game”.

        Oh course. Certainly don’t mention the Democrat party that ran two uncompelling candidates against the most flawed opponent in history, spent 2.5 billion dollars in 15 weeks while having almost no presence nationally, and give the American people nothing to get excited about, exerting no effort while expecting IQs above 100 and plenty of involvement from every voting American in order to win, even though those Americans don’t really understand that inflated prices aren’t going down but that’s not the administration’s problem, they’re not going to change anything.

        WHAT COULD GO WRONG?

          Well, yeah. Not being Trump is basically all that was needed. Given the choice between Trump and anyone else, You should automatically pick anyone else. It’s not hard to understand. Who cares about media presence, you go to the voting booth, locate the square next to Trump, and select the other one. What can be difficult or complicated about that? Most people in the world understand that, but not Americans. They’re too stupid, so fuck them, it’s their fault, I don’t give a shit what happens to them now.

            Obviously, that’s not all that was needed. And I would have like to have our party do what’s needed rather than expect things to happen without them trying.

            Plus all that money. Wtf

      If that was Biden’s motivation, then where is Fauci’s pardon? Or Adam “Enemy from Within” Schiff’s pardon? Or what about Liz Chenney who is supposed to face treason charges according to Trump, where is her pardon? What about Jack Smith, where is his pardon? Kash Patel has an appendix in his book which is a literal enemies and prosecution list, any pardons for anyone on that list?

      If Biden was concerned about the Trump justice department going after his political enemies, and Biden wanted to protect those people, there’s probably 80+ pardons he should be handing out.

      But instead he only issued one. For his son. So Biden is either actually concerned about overreach of the Trump justice department but he’s only willing to save his son, and leave everyone else hanging. Or, Biden isn’t actually that concerned with the Trump justice department and is just abusing his pardon power to protect his shithead son from the consequences of his own actions. Either way, fuck Joe Biden.

        Biden is not sharpening the knife: he simply placed a knife sharpener on the counter and is a good sport about letting others use it .

        It always was a caretaker presidency, that’s what I thought when he first got into office.

        I expect thoughtful words from his speeches as he gently leaves office

    “Hypocrisy isn’t illegal, nor is it particularly unusual in politics,” Stewart said Monday about Biden’s pardon. “It’s not like he’s ever going to run again. So why not take care of your kid, even if you said you weren’t gonna? I respect it. I don’t have a problem with it.”

    Suck it whiners.

    Go pass your own purity tests.

      Democrats can complain, although I’m not a fan of the decision, I get it.

      Republicans can go suck a giant dick. You’ve lost your right to complain after electing a treasonous, orange rapist.

    Him pardoning his son is a giant nothing burger.

    Hunter was the victim of a partisan witch hunt that wanted to get him on Trumped up charges (pun intended) because of his last name.

      TRUMP runs on ethnic clensing, claims he won’t project 2025, wins, immediately puts authors of 2025 in every key position. Convicted of over 30 felonies, convicted rapist, says ‘‘there will be some hardship’’ while selling is economic strategies that will destroy US economy, wants to stop billions a day in trade from Mexico. Refuses to appoint anyone that can pass a background check. Decides he doesn’t need to even PRETEND hell be lawful and ethical, caught on hot mic taking about disarming citizens. .

      • soft to no press coverage . Biden pardons his son. .
      • entire newscycle every day dedicated to the ABSOLUTE OUTRAGE this grievous crime is. Now the Presidential office is forever tainted… . It’s hard to even grasp how deeply loyal to Trump these institutions are.

        Especially since Hunter Biden was unfairly targeted just for being Joe’s son, and it’s clear the things he’s guilty of are clear examples of selective enforcement.

        Anyone paying even the slightest attention just saw a father who was there for his son in his time of need.

        What could go wrong is millions of childish idiots would decide to walk across broken glass barefoot because they don’t like the choices of shoes available. And then blame it on whoever brought the shoes.

          You see thats the problem, you didn’t bring shoes. you literally spread the glass. bringing shoes would have meant having policies that would actually help working americans.

              Oh I showed up and voted. you’re not some special snowflake. just didnt vote for harris or trump. get better candidates next time and maybe we’ll support your shit party. You know maybe people who dont shit on a minority group being murdered by our policies their entire campaign, or immediately try to through lgbt+ groups under the bus immediately following their loss. Maybe someone who also supports policies beneficial towards the working class.

              You know, basic fucking human decency. if you want safety for yourself you need to support safety for others. which dems clearly don’t. Next time you spout ‘blue no matter who’ or other such nonsense to defend your preferred parties candidate remember: you need to actually give people reasons to vote for your candidate. things you may not personally agree with.

      oh, no. I’m being challenged!

      “Haha, I’m gonna say Rogan, telegram, Russia or Altright and fuck off because I have no opinion outside of spoonfed leftist media, haha”

      The only difference between you and a Trump voter was the position of your hand on the ballot.
