I think Joe will go for the best outcome for himself and his family. Tomorrow he meets with Trump and I think he’ll be sniffing out a pardon deal for himself and Hunter.
Trump may offer a pardon for him not Hunter if he does not resign, after all Mondale in 1981, Gore in 2001, and Quayle in a VP case in 1993 presided over their defeats. But Kami cant?
“I think he’ll be sniffing out a pardon deal for himself and Hunter.”
An interesting thought. Joe is nothing if not pragmatic. It’s unlikely Trump will use the DOJ to go after him as the optics would look terrible. Trump is a master of optics. So what does Joe have to trade that Trump values enough to do this? Joe can and I expect will pardon his son. Joe doesn’t give two (insert word here) about what people think or how he looks to the faithful.
No pardons by Trump for any Biden. He let Hillary skate, which was a big mistake.
Pardon seems likely so long it is not a forward deal. I cant believe that Hunter would stay away from either dugs or easy money after a pardon and Joe is no longer capable of crime.
That deal was already made. He did all he practically could to subvert Harris, and look at that big smile the day after the election. He and his family are safe and he knows it.
