Probably, but I haven't heard much from him in a while. In my defense, if he has done something terrible recently, a lot of terrible things have been happening. It's hard to keep track.
Now that the election is over, I'm also willing to throw Biden on the pile. More then a few times in the past few years, he's done things that remind of me of my old, conservative acquaintances. Biden pardoning the Kids for Cash asshole cemented that.
People say "Pardoning Hunter ruined his legacy."
Pardoning Hunter was the right thing to do. The Republicans hounded him when they realized they had no real dirt on Biden, and basically got him via an unhonored plea deal for a crime that not even Joe Q. Public would get convicted for. Hunter was only convicted because his last name was Biden.
Pardoning the "Kids for Cash asshole" as you put it, was a rubber stamp affirming that Joe Biden only cares about the people on HIS side of the on-going class war. It cemented that if Hunter was in the same situation but not named Biden, he wouldn't have given a shit. And THAT destroyed his legacy, at best he was the "Good Cop" in a "Bad Cop, Good Cop" game, and need I remind you both cops are trying to convict you, even if they know damn well you didn't do that shit.
