And now that scumbag criminal has been nominated for Ambassador to France. But again, no criticism from these morons. Who needs MAGA enemies when you've got such clueless and stupid Democrats?

I suggest they begin looking for relevance in another direction. This makes them look petty and small, especially given the nature of Hunters offenses.

I can't believe this shit! Leave him alone, these people are so disrespectful. It's bad enough they didn't have his back after that debate performance, which is probably another reason why he stepped down and we lost. He won't say it, but I bet he stepped down because of these loudmouths.
Embarassing, makes me despise this country.

(56,896 posts)"I am disappointed that he put his family ahead of the country. This is a bad precedent that could be abused by later Presidents"
Oh, really?
LATER Presidents?????? Could be abused by them?
If I may be so bold, might I suggest you take a casual look at the record of the president that preceded Joe Biden, as well as that of the one that will succeed him, and observe that your potential "precedent" is already established history?

(2,455 posts)What's that? No President before Trump ever did any of the awful and illegal things he did? You mean he was able to do those things even though a precedent hadn't been set? Well, who knew? It's almost like awful people will do awful things whether there is precedent for it or not. And criminals are going to commit crimes, regardless what anyone else thinks.

(4,986 posts)These self righteous politicians make me very angry and disgusted. They arent worried about what is right or wrong but what publicity they can garner from the situation. So I guess we know how well the next 2 or 4 years are going to go. Even about something like this we cant come together.
BlueCheeseAgain
(1,983 posts)It's a tough issue and one that predictably has Democrats on both sides of it. We already had one round of casting out everyone who disagrees with President Biden in July after the debate. I hope we don't have another one now.

This isn't a question of principle, he was railroaded.
This is so disgusting.
Just wait until both houses of Congress and the WH are controlled by the sociopath and his cult.
What in the f**k do these imbeciles think would happen to Hunter once the magas take over if President Biden hadn't pardoned him?
A better question is what would they do if it was THEIR kid, and the same violations occurred.
and while I am at it, screw Garland for appointing Weiss, a trump flunky, and giving him additional authority to prosecute this circus.
and fuck our illustrious press while I am at it. Let's see how aggressive they will be going after the sociopath and his thugs.
Enough is enough.

(2,073 posts) Will we find this same type of message from you for all the times Trump pardoned his criminal associates?
First you defend RFK Jr and now this nonsense. You need to resign.
I don't know what you are angling to run for, but I'm out. Too many dumb statements in such a short amount of time.
Governor, you are so completely full of shit. You havent said a word about Kushers father-in-law being pardoned and receiving an ambassadorship nod from Trump this week. We see right through your pandering, and its pathetic.
Read Eric Holder's take on it. There was no case. What's wrong with you. Kash Patel would put him in jail day one. Oh, Kash Patel? You good with that?
Youve become dreadful and unhinged. Resign.
Trump pardoned his son in law's Jared Kushner's father Charles while he was president and just nominated him to be ambassador to our closest European ally. Are you sure you are still a Democrat?
Over the past week or so, Gov. Jared Polis has supported RFK Jr's nomination as HHS Secretary and now takes the Republican position on the pardon of Hunter Biden. WTF is going on in the governor's mansion in Denver? Joe Biden did the right thing. All out of f*cks to give.
And from Keith Olberman...
Resign.

Same for me. Im very disappointed with Democrats who have a problem with this. I believe theyre wrong. Pardoning Hunter was the right decision.

(1,983 posts)When any Democrat who said something critical of Joe Biden after the first debate got trashed and excommunicated, no matter how impeccable their credentials were beforehand.
I'm curious to see how stalwart Democrats like Senators Baldwin (D-WI), Tim Kaine (D-VA), Michael Bennet (D-CO), Gary Peters (D-MI), Maggie Hassan (D-NH), and Peter Welch (D-VT) will be roasted for speaking out against the pardon.
