      Pardoning his son from witch-hunts by the GOP isn’t dictatorial.Legally preventing the opposition from running candidates is absolutely dictatorial.

        pardoning witch hunts? hunter avoided paying taxes and got caught. why should he not pay the price for his crime?

          Because typically tax evasion is not handled by Congress. Surely you realized that it was really weird that Congress was looking into misdemeanor criminal violations.

            A great deal of the things congress seems to investigate are stupid. Like the whole baseball and steroids thing. And most of the rest of their investigations are dog and pony shows.

              There aren’t many if any cases of them targeting an individual citizen with zero role in government over simple crimes.

              This was done because the GOP is a clown show and needs to put on spectacles to entertain their supporters. Hunter Biden shoukd have been in a court like any other private citizen.

              Baseball and steroids was a pet issue for GWB as I recall and if I recall correctly he woukd have pursued that had he become commissioner instead of POTUS.

            I find it weird, yes. I guess I just don’t care about what’s weird or not anymore since weird actions have very real results.

            its only going to get weirder. nobody on the left wants to be painted as the person who overstepped societal norms they shouldnt have in order to keep crazy in check.

            oh well! what are ya gonna do lol
