Goodbye, Joe Biden, and thanks for nothing. History’s verdict will not be kind. His one-term presidency failed almost immediately with the chaotic retreat from Afghanistan and has culminated in a blanket pardon for his criminal son, Hunter. This blatant act of favouritism will have opened the door for Donald Trump to behave like a despot in his second term of office, without having to suffer the stench of hypocrisy enveloping his predecessor.
