Social Media Users Remind Trump He Also Pardoned a Family Member — And Then Made Him an Ambassador - eviltoast

Summary

Social media users criticized Donald Trump for pardoning Charles Kushner, Jared Kushner’s father, in 2020 and later nominating him as U.S. ambassador to France, while Trump supporters condemned President Biden’s pardon of his son, Hunter.

Charles Kushner, convicted of tax evasion and witness intimidation, joins a list of controversial pardons issued by Trump, including Steve Bannon, Michael Flynn, Roger Stone, and Paul Manafort.

All of these individuals were close allies or associates of Trump who were involved in scandals or investigations related to his presidency.

    We’re no worse than Trump makes for a lame bumper sticker.

    Hunter’s prosecution may have been political, but that’s only because that’s what it takes to overcome his privilege. Hunter Biden is the phrase “do you know who my father is” made into a person. Everybody in prison is someones child. Fuck Hunter Biden and his defenders.
