President Joe Biden will not pardon Hunter Biden if he’s convicted on federal charges, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Friday.
Asked during the daily briefing if the president would pardon or commute his son’s sentence if he gets convicted on the gun charges against him, Jean-Pierre told reporters he would not. It’s the first time the White House has explicitly said a potential pardon is not on the table following Hunter Biden’s indictment this week.
In her response, Jean-Pierre noted that she answered a similar question after the president’s son was first hit with a felony gun charge.
They don’t actually care about Hunter or even the charges; heck they probably don’t even agree with the gun background check law he broke. They just want a way to go after Biden and take him down. They want something to make him unpopular and rally the rest of the normal public behind so they can get him to lose. Once he’s out of the picture they can have their way on Abortion or Immigration or whatever their single issue voting topic is.
