@Parker8b43 The same thing happened with Biden dropping out of the race - they kept denying it right up until he dropped out.

So I don't think this changes the odds.

@TimothyJohnson5c16 Yeah... I just sold my no shares after reading this. Good point.

One way this resolves to NO is if they sentence the fifty four years old CHILD to community service, with probation and a fine. I feel like that's unlikely to happen, but who knows.

Assuming Donald Trump is sworn in as President, will he pardon Hunter Biden before January 1, 2026?

25% chance. Will resolve YES if Hunter Biden receives a pardon from Donald Trump regarding any current criminal charges before January 1, 2026. Will resolve N/A if Joe Biden fully pardons his son before leaving office. Will resolve N/A if Donald Trump is not sworn in as President. Will resolve NO if Donald Trump leaves office for any reason before January 1, 2026 and has not pardoned Hunter Biden.

I don't think this will happen. Easier to make a deal with Trump, maybe to have the case that was due for sentencing in Nov dismissed in exchange for letting Hunter go. Please don't reply with nonsense about independent courts.

Any father would, that’s fine

@beaver1 I don’t think it’s fine but I now think that Jill has enough influence over him and is so shameless in wielding her power in purely self-interested ways, that this is quite likely.

@NicoDelon Interesting point

He should just do it

@beaver1 and enter the history books as the feeble minded man who abused one of the most powerful positions in the state for the personal gain of his scumbag son?

@ICRainbow it's not like he didn't already do that

@ICRainbow Obama pardonned a bunch of crooks and friends, so did Trump.

@ICRainbow pardoning a failson is very respectable

@ICRainbow american aristocracy coded

@beaver1 Ah, the aristocrats...

@beaver1 when I looked into this it seemed like Obama (and HW Bush) hadn't pardoned people for corrupt reasons. Clinton, W. Bush, and Trump all did.

Who did you have in mind as an example of a corrupt Obama pardon?

@Vernas how so?

@ICRainbow worst telling of the Aristocrats joke I've ever seen. 0/10

@MartinRandall yeah, I was thinking of Clinton and that oil salesman crook. Obama pardoned terrorists and drug dealers, not much better in my eyes...

@ICRainbow This is such a stupid comment. Obviously it‘s not going to enter any history books if Joe Biden pardons his son. You clearly have no idea, or are just to hateful to care, that the presidents have over the lifetime of the us pardoned so many people and so many family members, which have all not been a topic of discussion, because you‘ll forget it soon, even if it would be a big deal

@beaver1 Which terrorists did obama pardon? i feel like you're just making stuff up.

@Parker8b43 just google it, "Barack HUSSEIN Obama terrorist pardons"

@beaver1 lmfao

@beaver1 other than rivera, which even then its debatable, i don't see anything else on google when i copy pasted and searched that exact string.

@beaver1 wait, Obama has a terrorist son?..
