      The only thing relevant about Hunter Biden’s conviction is that his father, who is the current President of the United States, isn’t pardoning him, even though he has every power to do so.

        Is there a limit to how late he can pardon someone? If he loses (somehow) could he pardon him on the last day as a final “eff you!”?

          Donald pardoned a bunch of shitbirds on his way out. Definitely possible although it shouldn’t be. They should have to publish all the pardons they’re planning well before the election and can only pardon names from that list.
