After saying he wouldn’t.

Hot take: Don't care. This is the least of his (Clarity EDIT: President Biden's) crimes, and I don't care about him looking after family.
Hunter is absolute scum, but this still might be the most honorable thing Grandpa Joe did in the last four years.
EDIT: I still think it's understandable, if corrupt. However, I think I was also unclear; I meant the pardon is the least of Joe's crimes, not Hunter's. The president has nearly unlimited pardon powers. Of course he was going to use them. I'm not saying it's good, I'm not saying Hunter deserves it, but I'm saying it's par for the course. It was much more broad than I initially thought, too, which does sour me on it, but it's still totally expected and within Joe's rights.
"Any and everything he did across a decade of time, it's all covered, any and everything" is, to you, "the least of his crimes"?
What the fuck did he do in December 2013?! Because the only way this covers the "least" of his crimes, is if "anything and everything" he did for a DECADE was somehow dwarfed by what happened prior but still within statute of limitations, a very thin window!
Yeah, I realize I was unclear, which might have contributed to my absolute downvote blowout.
I meant pardoning his guilty as hell son was the least of President Biden's crimes, not the least of Hunter's crimes. Agreed, it's a massive chunk of Hunter's crimes. And I didn't realize it was quite as broad as it was.
To be fair, there's potential incest rape that meets those requirements. Hunter is such an awful person there might very well be worse crimes earlier. But that wasn't my point.
