‘Joe Biden Will Pardon His Son': Conservative CNN Pundit Drops Hand Grenade Into Hunter Debate
2024-06-11
[Daily Caller] CNN political commentator Jonah Goldberg dropped a bomb into a debate about Hunter Biden’s scandals Saturday.
$10. on Crooked Joe to Place and pardon.
President Joe Biden told ABC’s David Muir that he would not pardon his son Hunter Biden, who faces three federal gun charges brought by special counsel David Weiss in September 2023. In a panel discussion also including CNN’s Chris Wallace, Lulu Garcia Navarro and Kara Swisher, Goldberg unleashed on the idea that Biden would refrain from pardoning Hunter Biden, asserting that the Democratic president will do so after the 2024 election.

"If he didn’t say it, they would attack him for being a terrible father," Swisher said.

"And also, by the way, he has said, he was asked directly, and he has said he wouldn’t pardon, um, his son if he gets convicted," Garcia Navarro added.

"Let’s wait and see what happens if he loses," Wallace remarked.

"Yeah but, I mean, but he said it!" Garcia Navarro exclaimed. "I mean, and he said he would abide —"

"Well what was he gonna say? He has to say that," Wallace shot back.

"Well, I don’t know!" Garcia Navarro said.

#21  His income stream is becoming more selective. I anticipate Velociraptors tearing him to pieces in Jurassic World 7

#20  No no no no, this is unpossible.

Goldberg a conservative?

This a title, or was he handed The Black Spot?

#19  This is how I see things playing out:
Trump insults Hunter.
Biden declares that the debate is off.
Dems decide that Joe is too far gone to run but can finish his term as the ceremonial White House greeter, effectively.
He dies sometime in the fall. No autopsy or fake autopsy due to all the meds in his system and scurrilous previous medical clearance.
Hunter asks Kamala for the promised pardon, she delays him until after the election.
Hunter starts acting sqirrellly which makes a lot of people in Washington nervous.
Hunter ODs on something laced with something and without Secret Service protection actually dies.
A couple of media people portray this as a tragic story.
DeNiro blames Trump.

Now what about all the other stuff he (and his Dad, Uncle and assorted relatives) did?

#16  A plea bargain with him eating the gun would be acceptable.

#15  As usual, you need to be precise in dealing with what demokrats say and what they actually will do.
No pardon, but "commutation of any and all punishments has not been mentioned. Viola, no punishment, just a meaningless phrase that will be dismissed as unimportant.

Yes, 'Street Money' aka 'Walking around money.' An unlimited Federal budget permits such investments.

#7  They delayed this so that Hunter can stay out of jail during the appeal and get a pardon with no time served. Hunter will miss an opportunity to be a celebrity going forward by serving some time. His relevance and ability to make money is soon ending.

#4  The mafia and the DNC merged 1975-1990 and Joe Biden was a big part of that. Of course he will pardon his son. It's the mafia thing to do.
