Do you know ANYONE who thinks the same way about Biden's pardons as they do about Trump's?

I certainly don't.

I think they are both generally ok, but also somewhat sketchy. I don't see them as much different from Clinton's pardons, Fords or Andrew Johnson's Christmas day pardons for confederate soldiers.

What big differences do you see?

People in the conservative ecosystem are very much up in arms about the pardon of Hunter Biden.

Like most things in MAGAland, these matters are framed in a certain way, and all nuance is eliminated. The irony of being upset about Biden while being a cheerleader for Don Jr is lost.

If we are wishing changes in law, I wish an impeachment would automatically trigger a new election.
