I never mentioned the gun.
Pardon powers are nearly unlimited. Pardoning your son is a bad look, I agree, but that's are far as it goes. I don't like Joe, I don't like Hunter. This is, to my knowledge, completely legal, and far from the worst thing either of them have done.
If someone in Trump's family was a criminal, I wouldn't care if he pardoned them either.
We all knew this was coming, not sure why anyone is surprised or outraged.
While I agree with you on the gun charge (Trump should have pardoned Hunter for that one if Joe didn't), and I don't care about throwing Hunter into jail, this makes presidential pardon power sound worse. Just pardon family members who are criminals? That's why the Romans threw out Tarquin...
