    Biden allowed the prosecution of Hunter to avoid the appearance of not being neutral.

    Now that Trump has won and a) is openly talking about pardoning anyone and everyone and b) wanting to prosecute his enemies list, it 100% makes sense to beat him to the punch and pardon Hunter.

    If Kamala had won, he would have let it all stand.

      Biden allowed the prosecution of Hunter to avoid the appearance of not being neutral

      But the reality is he wasnt neutral…

      So, when you portray a situation falsely because you know the blowback would hurt your chances in an upcoming election (Biden was the candidate then)

      That is commonly referred to:

      Being a fucking liar

      And when you do that for something everyone knows you’re lying about, that’s going to hurt turnout for the entire party, even if you do eventually shuffle off the stage before the election.

      You may be 100% of with the only two parties only running liars

      But if you want a way to make Dems able to win again, fight for honest authentic candidates who will help Americans.

      You’ll never find a neoliberal as good as lying as a Republican. So why play that game.

      If Kamala had won, he would have let it all stand.

      My opinion is obviously he wouldn’t have. I’m not sure why your preventing your opinion as a fact, or even why you still think the next president somehow controls sentencing…

      Like, you get that right?

      That the entire premise for your argument about why this is ok has no factual basis?

      If you think I’m wrong, by all means explain how the incoming president co trolls that, and how Biden wasn’t able to control it now for a fair result and not an all or nothing like you’re presenting

        Oh, he definitely wasn’t neutral, no father could be, that’s why I say he was trying to avoid the APPEARANCE of not being neutral. ;)

        Now that Trump has won and is talking crazy shit, there’s no need to maintain appearances.
