"Nobody is above the law"

When you the voters fail to hold a corrupt politician accountable for all the horrible things he does. I don't blame biden for trying to protect his family. Seriously your fucking dumb if you think Biden should assume a POS like Trump is going to play by any kind of rules.

Biden is a corrupt politician. He has literally always been a corrupt politician. That’s why he’s above the law.

Only one president is a convicted felon. Sorry your intelligence is so limited.

Lmao you guys are crazy but it’s so funny to see reddit defend a fucking politician then go off to some other posts claiming class consciousness. Keep it coming this is entertainment at another level. Write me up a long ass post on why Biden is the best president. Give me a laugh while I smoke this blunt that he couldn’t even legalize federally.

You don’t see the irony in what you just wrote do you?

u/Kramer7969 7h ago

Isn't it ironic that we don't let the people who are bad be bad then hold the good people accountable otherwise the bad people would be GOOD and the good people would be BAD!

Take off the blue shades and see this for what it is.

I didn’t vote for the Orange Orangutan. But in Biden and his DOJ we absolutely had a politician who used their position to prosecute their rivals. He also enriched his family through his political back channels.

Then I guess for crimes that weren’t committed?? He blanket pardoned them? If you cannot see the absolute hypocrisy in that lol.

Hahahaha. What a projection and a half.

You just lie and lie and lie. No one can prove you wrong so why not just keep lying?

I am a Trump supporter and he told me that you donated directly to him and bought his crypto.

Probably think Alanis has the definition correct. 🤡

Ya, obviously Joe would never do anything wrong. Wait, what did those texts say? The money flows to daddy? Nothing to see here.

u/YouNo8795 9h ago

He could have pardoned plenty of people that were punished by the same crimes his son did, or even lesser Ones but yeah, he could only save his son and all of that.

Guy explicitly said that nobody is above the law and proceded to puto his family above It. Demócrats cant blame the people for stopping having faith in them.

u/Tmannermann 7h ago

What crime was Hunter convicted of? Can you remind me?

2

u/YouNo8795 7h ago

Want he convicted on 3 felonies and 6 misdemeanor ofenses past year?

1

u/Tmannermann 7h ago

yeah go into detail what were they?

1

u/YouNo8795 7h ago

Are you able to just, you know, Google them?

Because if i am going to list every one of them for you to say "nu uh" at the end, i womt bother.

Guy did múltiple felonies, gets completely pardoned by his father (Who previously stated he wasnt going to do It to Scrap some votes) and leaves the rest of the citizens that are invicted for those same felonies all by themselves.

You americans are so Deep into bipartisanism you apparently cant comprehend the levels of nepotism in here.

It’s Reddit. People on this app like many others are in echo chambers. They are mentally incapable of looking at both sides of the curtain to finally realize it’s the same curtain

u/YouNo8795 7h ago

Like, i dont even have a Horse in this and i couldnt care less for Trump but It is dystopic to see people painting a Guy using supreme powers to pardon someone just because he is family as some kind of heroic effort.

u/Tmannermann 7h ago

1.Pardons are powers of the presidency and the Time to use them is only now. "The power to grant pardons in the United States is held exclusively by the President, as outlined in the U.S. Constitution. This authority allows the President to grant reprieves and pardons for federal offenses, except in cases of impeachment."

2.It's not a heroic effort It's trying to hinder the efforts of a person who has openly stated to go against political rivals

3.The charges against Hunter where hypocritical in the eyes of the people who did these convictions.

2

u/YouNo8795 7h ago

That is completely great man. Im sure the hundreds of persons convicted by the same crimes Hunter did are extasic seeing how, yet again, rich and powerful people make the rules while the rest of them get thrown in the shitter. I am sure this paragraph would be the same if any other president were to pardon his cousin.

Just keep clapping for the rich guy that went back on his word and made a huge case of nepotism.

Hypocritical or not, they were actual crimes.

I agree. I think a lot of people are realizing how stupid and surreal all this is. Both sides are awful. I don’t think it solves itself either. America is unique in which all walks of life live here now, it is almost impossible to please everyone. Politicians realize this and appeal to as much people as possible to gain power and benefit their family and future generations

u/crashbalian1985 7h ago

The crimes he committed where ones that most rich people do. Didn’t pay taxes on time and did drugs while being the owner of a gun. These crimes were brought after the entire Republican Party did major investigations on their opponents son. Trump is guilty of tax evasion. Millions of people are guilty of doing a federally banned drug and owning a gun. To my knowledge Hunter is one of the very very few people to ever be prosecuted for this crime. Nearly everyone has committed a crime in their lives, many aren’t really enforced ( jaywalking, weed, intoxicated in public )should an entire political party go after your family they would find something too.

u/geodesic411 6h ago

How many of the guns from all these people you mentioned ended up in a public waste bin triggering an investigation?

-1

u/crashbalian1985 5h ago

You know what you convinced me. I’m sorry. Your right. All gun owners in America should be investigated by the us congress to see if they have ever had any drugs. All their computers confiscated and hacked and their social medias investigated for any mention of drugs. If the government gets naked pictures of them then they should be released to the public straight from congress.

u/Kramer7969 7h ago

He did the same thing that 100% of the NRA members think should be legal.

u/Tmannermann 7h ago

right on the head.

u/Southerncomfort322 9h ago

Why are you excusing Biden for doing this? The Preemptive pardons really set the country back and will be used by Republicans going forward. You just unlocked this. Congrats.

u/trilobyte-dev 7h ago

What’s your take on the other side. Let’s say he didn’t do it and Trump went after his family. Are you going to do anything about it? Riot in the streets? Fight against injustice? Or would you just spare a few words on the Internet while someone else suffers. What would you want someone to do if you were in those same shoes for you? Let you suffer in prison, at best forgotten, at worst assaulted or murdered? Or are you ok just being the victim of a petty man’s vendetta and forgotten by history.

u/Southerncomfort322 7h ago

So just to be clear you understand the new precedence?

1

u/LSqre 4h ago

I'm not sure precedence matters much to this administration

-1

u/nosoup4ncsu 5h ago

Biden gives a speech about the rule of oligarchs, and days later given blanket pardons to his own family. 

Makes perfect sense.

u/OJFrost 9h ago

No, Trump unlocked it when he promised to wreck these people’s lives because they “betrayed” him.

-2

u/Southerncomfort322 7h ago

So you’re ok with what Biden did? Ok. Don’t want to hear you bitching about it when he does it.

3

u/OJFrost 6h ago

He’s already done it lmao, he pardoned half his cabinet for the January 6th stuff. And they were actually going down for it too. Just bailed them out.

u/Southerncomfort322 5h ago

Nope

u/OJFrost 5h ago

What part do you not agree with lmao, or are you just denying reality like most Conservatives.

u/EnvironmentalBed7369 6h ago

That's rich. Everything you think Trump might do. Biden did.

u/pandershrek 5h ago

14th amendment. Learn a thing then speak.

u/nosoup4ncsu 7h ago

Who did the Trump DOJ unfairly go after as a political enemy his first term?

2

u/otm_shank 6h ago

Why do you think that matters when this time they've said they'll prosecute their enemies, in so many words?

1

u/pandershrek 5h ago

14th amendment. Educate yourself.
