are you joking? hunter filled out a form wrong.
who could possibly care?
pop your head out.
He pleaded guilty to 3 felonies and 6 misdemeanors for not paying $1.4 million over 3 years, including making false deductions and dipping into company funds. That's not "filling out a form wrong", and if it is, his father should pardon everyone who has been charged under the bad laws that allow people simply "filling out a form wrong" to catch 9 charges. Especially for the people who couldn't afford accountants and lawyers to file the form correctly for them.
Pardoning your own son only for any possible federal crime, not just the ones he was charged with, especially after saying you wouldn't, is gross nepotism. And the pardon starts from 2014 when the tax and gun charges are for 2016 onwards, which implies there's more Joe Biden knows about.
Tell it to these chuds talking about death of democracy or whatever.
This was a witchhunt targeted at Hunter only because he's Joe Biden's son. Good on him on doing this after that Orange cunt gloated how he's going to come after 'Biden crime family'.
