Pardon Hunter and drop out: How Biden can spare his party, his family and his image
The Hill ^ | 09/20/2023 | DEREK HUNTER

Posted on 09/20/2023 5:46:31 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Few Presidents as unpopular as Joe Biden have ever sought re-election. In the modern history of polling, only Jimmy Carter and Donald Trump rival him with their disapproval ratings at this point in their respective presidencies.

What’s more, “Bidenomics” is already making Trump look much better by comparison. This reality has many Democrats nervous, looking for some way to ditch their current standard bearer and replace him with (almost) anyone else.

Biden’s loss of mental acuity has reached a point where it can no longer be denied or defended. Concerns about Biden’s age and sharpness are turning up in every new poll, expressed by overwhelming majorities of voters. Normally, this would be cause enough for party leaders to convince him he shouldn’t run again. But having spent the last three years swearing up and down that Biden is as sharp as ever, Democrats can hardly make that their excuse for ditching him now. It would turn everything they’ve said about him into a lie, to say nothing of the optics of kicking the old guy to the curb.

Hunter is one thing. But then it comes back to the question of whether a president can pardon himself. People seem to disagree on that. But I suppose a Democrat could do it.

Yes, the Bidens get to keep their $50 million or whatever in bribe money they have collected...and no legal repercussions.

The point is to make it easier for the Democrats to win in 2024 so that the next term will be effectively Obama's fourth term.

So, What WE have been saying since DAY 1. And the Press has gone to the mat to deny continuously and call us names?

Pardon Hunter!? Then he just lives the rest of his life in luxury with his ill gotten gains. Any ordinary citizen would be breaking big rocks into little rocks for life.

when trump gets into office, he should use civil asset forfeiture to take all of the Biden family money and resources.

Let Joe and his crime family run for a second term, maybe then the American people will see the light and defeat him at the polls. Yes, I know the danger of the rigged vote.

Pardon Hunter and he will be dead of a massive drug overdose or some wild variant of monkey pox within the year.

“Pardon Hunter and drop out: How Biden can spare his party, his family and his image”

Pardon Hunter and drop is the new plan since the original slap on his wrist plan failed.

There, fixed it

I think the problem the DNC is having is finding a replacement that would be as compliant as Biden. Few narcissistic polticians would be willing to be given the most powerful job in the world, and allow an unseen group led by Obama call all the shots. Even Harris wouldn’t make that deal.
