#Biden gives son #Hunter 'unconditional' #pardon
Source: bbc.com/news/articles/cjwl3ven…
Biden has proven that what #Trump can do, he can do too. Lies, nepotism and saving criminals from their just punishment. Look, he's just the lesser of two evils and Trump is much worse. US democracy can only be saved without these two evil parties. Trump's supporters can now pull off much worse things with reference to Biden without the other side being able to justifiably outrage. Righteous anger at this despicable system can only come from the outside.
