John Fetterman said yesterday that the federal cases against Hunter Biden and the New York hush money case against Trump were both “politically motivated” and deserving of pardons. What a jackass. Via NBC News:
Biden issued a broad pardon for his son Hunter over the weekend. Trump was convicted by a New York state jury earlier this year on charges of falsifying business records related to payments to Stormy Daniels, an adult film performer, ahead of the 2016 election. Pardons in state cases like that one are handled at the stat level, not the presidential level.
Fetterman told a small group of reporters in the Capitol that the tax and gun cases against Hunter Biden were “politically motivated” and “weaponized for political gain,” comparing them to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s case against Trump.
“The same thing was done with Trump with the New York case. And that was bulls--- too,” the Pennsylvania senator said. “And that was weaponized for political gain.”
He also said the same thing to Joy Behar on The View.
Imma try to be charitable here, because maybe Fetterman has memory problems from his stroke. (He also seems to have impulse control problems as well.) So let me remind him.
