Sure, your feelings are valid. Just explaining his actions, not justifying them.

Do you think Hunter would be protected from his own wrongdoings if his dad wasn't president?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Clearly not, but what's your point? Biden is president. Not saying it's right. But I think it's what any parent would do. Hunter isn't some moral monster. He's just messed up more than anything, in the way a kid in his situation might.

Not justifying it, but executive power is insane. Trump will break the law far more destructively with respect to Hunter then this pardon, or at least that's the fear I imagine Biden has.
