The pardon of Hunter Biden by his dad, President Joe Biden, was met with scorn by not only Republicans but even Democrat supporters.

One such support, former Republican Congressman Joe Walsh, a fierce critic of President-elect Donald Trump, called it “utter bulls**t.”

“This is utter bulls**t, just plain wrong, & stupidly selfish. Shame on you @POTUS, you’ve given Trump license now to dole out favors to his family & wealthy friends. And when he does, you’ve given his supporters the opportunity to say ‘everyone does it.’ And btw Biden, you lied,” he said in a post on X.

“I discussed here how I voted for Harris despite feeling like Democrats indulged in a lot of bad behavior that voters were rational to publish. After the White House lying about the Hunter pardon I’m not sure how much more I can tolerate,” pollster Nate Silver said.

“A colossally selfish decision that will allow every Trump supporter to note that Democrats say one thing and do another,” former CNN analyst Chris Cillizza said.

There were even some elected Democrats who spoke against what the president did.

“While as a father I certainly understand President @JoeBiden’s natural desire to help his son by pardoning him, I am disappointed that he put his family ahead of the country.,” Colorado Gov. Jared Polis, considered to be a star in the Democrat Party who spoke at the Democratic National Convention, said on  X. “This is a bad precedent that could be abused by later Presidents and will sadly tarnish his reputation. When you become President, your role is Pater familias of the nation. Hunter brought the legal trouble he faced on himself, and one can sympathize with his struggles while also acknowledging that no one is above the law, not a President and not a President’s son.”

“I respect President Biden, but I think he got this one wrong,” Arizona Democrat Rep. Greg Stanton said.

“This wasn’t a politically-motivated prosecution. Hunter committed felonies, and was convicted by a jury of his peers,” he added.
