I'd be hesitant to link Biden with the Democrats anymore Cannoli Send a noteboard - 06/12/2024 01:24:44 AM

They have clearly been going through a contentious divorce since the Presidential debate. First of all, he, or whomever is calling the shots for House Biden has to be really pissed at the Democrats' willingness to throw him under the bus, and offer up Hunter as a sacrificial lamb to their sanctimonious posture on 'rule of law', after defending Clinton selling pardons out the figurative backdoor of the White House, and meanwhile, he has vastly outperformed either of the far left's preferred candidates against their bete noir, and has even allowed them free reign in his administration.

Lot's of people see his crowning Harris as his successor as a 'fuck you' to the party that decided they didn't need him anymore, and I wouldn't be surprised if the pardon for Hunter, in addition to the blatant familial benefit, is in part intended to embarrass the party in which no member of his family will be running in Joe's lifetime.

The Democrats have made it pretty clear how little use or care they have for the Bidens now that they no longer serve the party's agenda (and one could argue that has been the case since 2019, when they used him as a front man, despite his infirmity and unsuitability for the office), so why on Earth should Joe Biden feel bound to act for the benefit of the Democrats? Why should he hold himself to their promises that will allow them to continue attacking the Republicans, at no benefit to himself? Why see his son behind bars for the good of the party that used him up? Why not run an amicable transition with the incoming President (and it should be noted that, his rhetoric aside, the Trump White House didn't give the Biden transition team any problems, with the First Family all behaving with the White House staff as if they were intending to depart on schedule), and maybe get a few more perks & favors tossed his way during the next administration, rather than wait for hollow honors from the next Democratic president, for whose term Joe might not even be cognizant.

Painting the Democrats with the brush of Biden's conduct in the last half year of his term isn't exactly fair to them, considering he might very well be their enemy at this point.

Of course, just as with the Democrats who suddenly chose to be concerned or disguested by the Clintons looting the White House on the way out the door, there is the fact that they were the ones who put him there and roundly denounced any objections to his fitness for office...

No Fucks Left to Give Joe tosses Hunter a blanket pardon - 02/12/2024 09:23:33 PM 297 Views
I think if he hadn't said he wouldn't pardon his son, then this would be a non-issue. - 03/12/2024 12:53:15 PM 40 Views
I don't agree with that - it would've been a serious issue still. - 03/12/2024 05:56:18 PM 45 Views
How about this? - 04/12/2024 03:43:52 AM 42 Views

Trump was already going to pardon all the J6 defendants, though. - 04/12/2024 07:18:56 AM 40 Views

We've been over this - some of this is true, some is, at a minimum, not proven that I ever saw. - 05/12/2024 11:18:24 PM 35 Views
I know it was factually true - 06/12/2024 12:46:44 AM 40 Views
Sounds like you need to become a whistleblower and go talk to the FBI yourself, then? - 06/12/2024 11:37:00 AM 35 Views
Typically, whistle blower and attorney client privilege are not viewed as compatible. - 06/12/2024 03:57:12 PM 37 Views
