If Biden claimed presidents need immunity,




Brian Tyler Cohen

'If Biden claimed presidents need immunity, it'd be nonstop fainting spells. But because TRUMP said it, and they’ve all taken up residence in the protective warmth of his colon, suddenly it’s crickets from the supposed party of the Constitution.'




Ouch, but true!

If Rump pardoned one of his kids, it wouldn't even make a ripple no matter how large the offense. But let Joe pardon Hunter for whatever minor offense they finally get him on....
