President-elect Donald Trump's communications director responded to Biden's decision without directly naming the president or his son.

Summary

President Joe Biden pardoned his son Hunter Biden, prompting strong backlash from Republicans.

GOP lawmakers criticized the move as an abuse of power and an attempt to avoid accountability, with figures like Rep. James Comer and Sen. Chuck Grassley calling it hypocritical and corrupt.

Biden defended the pardon, citing “selective prosecution” and claiming Hunter was unfairly targeted due to their family connection.

Hunter faced convictions for federal gun and tax charges.

      Yep that’s a mask off to reveal the trumptard face moment. Trump supporters are garbage and we will remember who is one for quite some time.

      Personally I’m boycotting any business with visible Trump support, and I make it a point to tell their staff that I won’t be back and the reason why. Last time I had to do this I told them their Trump shit was fucking disgusting and I would never be back.

      I’m of the, apparently wildly fascistic, opinion that vice presidents’ sons shouldn’t sell off their father’s influence to foreign nationals.

        But Trump placing his son in law, sons, and daughter into White House positions and using their fathers influence to obtain backroom deals with the Chinese government (ivanka) and securing a $3 billion loan from the Saudi royal family (Jared Kushner) is different right? 🤡

        The problem with you and other ghouls like you is that your game doesn’t work when talking to people who have paid attention to events in the last 8 years. Not everyone is as willing to suspend facts as you are.
