Can’t be trusted

And for anyone still thinking President Biden could be trusted, I offer you the pardon of Hunter Biden that followed his insistence that he would not pardon Hunter Biden.

Hunter Biden pardon

President Biden has pardoned his son, Hunter. This has nothing to do with drugs or prostitutes, this is for all the dirty deals that President Biden made himself. Kash Patel is coming for these condescending thieves.

Vendetta

It’s disappointing to see the vendetta between Donald Trump and President Biden. In retaliation for Trump making bizarro cabinet appointments and announcing he would pardon the Jan. 6 criminals, Biden (the good Catholic), promised he would not pardon his son Hunter, yet he does it anyway. Was it out of spite for Trump’s actions?

Why the outrage?

Jim Jordan is outraged that President Biden pardoned his son. I wonder what he thinks about Donald Trump asking for a pardon from President Biden and dismissal of his criminal charges of conspiracy to overthrow the government.

He’s old, you know

Is it possible that President Biden is just so old that he forgot he said he wouldn’t pardon his son?

Something stinks

President Biden has pardoned his son, and no one should be surprised by this, or his lie that he wouldn’t. Next expect all kinds of Republican hypocrisy about this turn of events. Donald Trump has absolutely no room to criticize lies or pardons or get-out-of-jail-free cards, but of course he will, even though he pardoned Ivanka’s father-in-law and now wants to give him a government position. There’s a very foul odor and it’s coming from both sides of the aisle.
