President Joe Biden announced late Sunday that he is pardoning his son, Hunter Biden, who has faced federal prosecution for gun and tax-related charges. The move comes after multiple statements by the president along the campaign trail saying he would not do so if his son is convicted.
Biden will be remembered as the president who let Trump win - ran when he shouldn't have, stepped down far too late, endorsed Harris immediately shutting down any attempt to find the best possible candidate. And now he's a major hypocrite.
All his achievements in Office will be overshadowed by this election. He will be a footnote in history, which will be the Trump story.
I think we'll find there was never actually any chance it wouldn't be Trump. People voted on their perception of the economy. All the shit we were on here wringing our hands about, no one actually gave a shit.
The lies and crimes are just seen as normal political bullshit that everyone does. Outside a couple of communities, no one cared about Palestinians. People thought inflation was bad so they voted for change. End of story.
Trump gained in every demographic. That's not Biden's fault. That's us. A bitter contested convention would have only left us more divided. There wasn't a more electable candidate waiting in wings, not when Biden dropped out and not 8 months earlier.
God, remember all the drones saying he'd go down as "the bravest president in history" for deciding way too late to drop out of a race he shouldn't have started?
Well the fascist fucks that Republicans pushed into the Supreme Court promised they wouldn't ban abortion but they did, so I don't give a fuck, Biden should go ahead and pardon every single person ever convicted on non-violent federal drug offenses while he's at it. Put a pen in his hand and let him spend 16 hour days signing petitions until that orange fuck comes back.
