Conservative CNN commentator Scott Jennings argued that the recent pardon by President Joe Biden is “a complete and utter failure” by the Democratic Party and that it is the inverse of what many claimed President-elect Donald Trump would use his power for.
The president pardoned his son, Hunter Biden, on all “offenses against the United States which he has committed or may have committed or taken part in” over an 11-year period, giving the largest-scale pardon since then-President Gerald Ford’s pardon of former President Richard Nixon in 1974. With less than two months before Biden leaves the White House, Jennings contended that the pardon makes “the strongest possible case” that President-elect Donald Trump was right in saying that the nation’s government and justice system is “of, by, and for the elites.”
