President Joe Biden’s decision to pardon his son from federal gun and tax crimes —and any other offenses over a nearly 11-year period — has drawn outrage from Republicans, while only a few Democrats have criticized the outgoing president for establishing a potential precedent for the incoming GOP administration.

    Honestly, I’d respect Biden less if he hadn’t pardoned Hunter.

    That is very weird thing to say.

    “I would respect Biden less if he lived with his principles and didn’t abuse his position for his own benefit”

    It would be more respectful of him to issue a pardon for specific cause instead of making his son live with zero consequences for his actions.

    Even changing the law to be fair would be better than pardoning only his son.

      Curious. You seem to be under the impression that the President makes law in the US. They don’t. We’re not quite a dictatorship yet.

      And you’re entitled to your opinion. No one has to share it. <shrug>
