Former President Donald Trump stated that he has not dismissed the possibility of granting a pardon to Hunter Biden, the convicted son of President Joe Biden, should he be reelected.
“I wouldn’t take it off the books,” Trump told radio host Hugh Hewitt in a Thursday interview when asked if he would pardon the first son, “despite what they’ve done to me.”
“Hunter’s a bad boy. There’s no question about it. He’s been a bad boy,” the Republican nominee said. “All you had to do is see the laptop from hell. But I happen to think it’s very bad for our country.”
Donald Trump stated that he “could have gotten Hillary Clinton very easily,” but he believed it would reflect poorly if the former first lady were to be imprisoned.
“I thought it would be very bad if we did that. And I made sure that didn’t happen, okay? I thought it would be bad,” Trump told Hewitt. “What I didn’t know is that they were going to play dirty with me. Who thinks that?”
A jury determined that Hunter Biden was guilty on all three counts related to gun charges in June, as reported by Breitbart News. He is facing a potential sentence of up to 25 years in prison and fines amounting to $750,000, based on court documents acquired by CNN.
