Showing Original Post only (View all)Joe Walsh (on MSNBC just now), you are wrong, wrong, wrong in your take on Hunter Biden's pardon [View all]
It won't embolden Trump. Trump has shown repeatedly that he will do whatever he damn pleases. Joe Biden's action is irrelevant.
Joe Biden didn't pardon him simply because he loves his son. He pardoned him because it clearly was a targeted prosecution by Republicans who wanted to discredit and harass Hunter's father, and because Hunter has paid his dues.
A pardon is entirely appropriate and just.
