The president’s son is currently standing trial on three felony gun charges that could carry a sentence of up to 25 years in jail if he is found guilty.

Asked if he would rule out issuing a pardon for his son, Biden replied, “yes.”

      I don’t see why he wouldn’t do it. It’s his son. trump has pardoned criminals waaaay worse who then went on to commit more of the same crimes they were pardoned for. He also gave medals to people who were wholly undeserving of said medals.

      Hell now that trump is a convicted felon how about undoing the bullshit he did while in office. Take away the medals from those assholes who don’t deserve it and throw the criminals he pardoned back in jail.

      If he was a detective, wouldn’t all his past cases be under scrutiny? Why is that not the same for a president? It should be put to higher standards than police work.

      Uh huh…we’ll see. He’s already lied for him time and time again saying the laptop was Russian disinformation when he already knew that wasn’t true and abused his power by getting Facebook and Twitter to block the story and suspend the New York Post’s account in order to interfere in the last election but you don’t think he would clear his son before leaving office?
