Good for him. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.

Might as well have the completely corrupt country we deserve. Both parties.

We know Biden is a monster, but at least he takes care of his children. However, it would have been funny if Trump ended up pardoning Hunter.

Fat chance. Pardons are for paying customers and useful goons.

If it were me I would absolutely pardon my rival's son as both a matter of class solidarity and also to rub his nose in the fact that he's being a shitty father.

Yeah, but you are probably a normal person with sense of decency.

Yes, thank you, I think I am IRL. But I'm giggling to myself imagining an indecent scenario in which President Trump asks Hunter, as he's about to sign the pardon, "who's your daddy?".

I guess they can just skip the uncle touchy middle man.

Yeah, can't fault him on that one. And honestly, I feel like he should swing at the fences a bit more. Not like there's much to lose for him at this point.

Uh-huh. Wake me up when he packs the Supreme Court or cancels student loans. I think he’s gonna do jack shit.

"Lose."

Loose is for morals and stool, such as in the outgoing and incoming presidents.

Thanks, corrected.

Can’t believe you got downvoted for calling the genocider in chief a monster.

CrimeDad@lemmy.crimedad.work · 2 pts · 1y (1 reply)

It's alright. Downvotes aren't real on here.

They aren’t “real” anywhere but it just goes to show how easily people and networks are manipulated
