Whoopi Goldberg and her lefty cohorts on “The View” went to the mat Monday in defense of President Biden’s sweeping pardon of his son Hunter, writing it off as just “what presidents do” and dismissing criticism of the controversial move as “foolish” and “pearl-clutching.”
Goldberg launched straight into her defense of Biden during the ABC TV show’s “Hot Topics” segment by rattling off a list of people President-elect Donald Trump pardoned during his first term, including Roger Stone and Michael Flynn.
“That’s what presidents do every time. They do it every time, they pardon somebody, so I’m not sure why the pearl-clutching is happening now,

The left makes a living pardoning and venerating criminals and perverts.

Whoopi, just shut up and go away...yep, he did do what he does best...lie...don't worry though, the cocaine kid will screw up again beyond his 'pardon window' .. two people are already screaming about unpaid rent to the tune of $800K....that ain't Federal so he can be prosecuted for that...
Wonder how many more criminals he will pardon before 1/20??? Bet he won't pardon the J6'ers though..that would be too worthwhile...

Not a surprise. Everything Leftists do can be excused in one way or another. Biden even CONTINUALLY promised he would NOT pardon Hunter. He lied when it was politically convenient just like he has lied about so many other things while President AND throughout his whole political career.
Did Biden have the right to issue a pardon? Absolutely! Was Biden wrapped up in Hunter's mess? Absolutely! Did Biden pardon Hunter to protect himself? Absolutely! Was it sleazy to offer a pardon under these conditions? Absolutely! Do you think that Biden's legal counsel pointed out that while he had immunity under his term as president he didn't have immunity for actions taken as VP and perhaps pardoning Hunter would insulate him from what he did as VP? Absolutely!
The View is where Leftists go to get absolution from their misdeeds. ALL is excused by the dingbats. We eill see how long they can keep it up.

It’s actually great. It shows the two tiered system of justice and how corrupt and just liars the Democrats are.
It also sets the stage to pardon every single J6er.

Given recent political events, I'd say The View will be cancelled sometime in 2025.

Yeah, right. I'm sure Whoopi would be singing the same tune if the roles were reversed and Trump was about to leave office and he issued such a broad pardon of Don, Jr., or Eric. Don't you just know that she would be writing it off as just “what presidents do” and dismissing criticism of the controversial move as “foolish” and “pearl-clutching.”

I haven't heard Whoopi's name as another Hollywood leftist invited to a Diddy party.
Diddy probably didn't want anyone that ugly spoiling the groove.

The so-called View these days has become a politically partisan joke that continuously covers for leftist Democrats.

It's Whoopi's right to go through fat, dumb, stupid, and ugly and say what she wants to. That doesn't make her correct.
I can't boycott that show because I never watched it before.

Whoopi will be asked what her opinion of Trumps sweeping Pardons of the J-6ers, Daniel Penny and the new DOJ's investigation into members of the Biden Administration. We'll see who clutches pearls, then!!

There she goes again. Whoopi Goldberg flagrantly displaying her "I'm a Moron" bona fides for the entire world to see. The head of the massively corrupt Biden clan just pardoned himself by pardoning his crackhead son. Whoopi wouldn't know the truth if mugged her!
I'm sure many of y'all have heard the expression "If she had any brains she'd be dangerous." But Whoopi really fits that bill!

What the hell is that Predator/Alien hairdo that Whoopie is sporting? Is that her half-ass attempt to be in solidarity with all the nutjob lefties shaving their heads right now?
Of course she's excusing the Biden to Biden pardon.

Nope, no president has ever pardoned his criminal bagman son who was responsible for collecting the bribe money from foreign governments for Traitor Joe, the most corrupt president ever.

Look at the list of those he pardoned and it's nearly all who had served some, if not most, of their time. Many had bipartisan support for the pardon.
Just shows the lack of candor from The View hosts who are continually required to read legal notices after they've made stupid comments that can present a lawsuit.
Wonder if the habitual need to continue doing so might not be enough anymore since they clearly have intent.

They really mean it's OK for Democrat Presidents to do that. God forbid if President Trump pardoned anybody they don't like.

Presidents do pardons. That is a perk of the job. And often those pardons are politically motivated. Trump, Øvomit, Bush, Clinton, Bush, etc, etc, etc, all did that. Everyone understands that.
And, as a mother, I don't even blame Senile Joe for deciding to save his son from prison, especially since Hunter is a crack-head child molester, and they don't tend to survive very long in prison. I think most parents would want to do that if it was in their power.
But Senile Joe sanctimoniously insisted that he wouldn't pardon Hunter over and over again, because "nobody is above the law" -- so that he could look so piously pure when he was running for re-election (and even after to try to help Cackling Kamala). Where we come from that is called a huge L I E, and political hypocrisy at its most blatant!!!!
But that is far too complex a reality for someone like Whoopi with 5 working brain cells to comprehend!!!

Actually, Whoopie is mostly correct: Lie, Lie, Lie, then pardon their cronies and co-conspirators for their crimes in their last few days in office IS what (most) pResidents do.

This pardon may come back to bite the HairSniffer right on his backside. My understanding is that, having been pardoned, Huncher cannot 'claim the 5th' and refuse to answer questions from investigators looking into the Biden Crime Family's activities. The ol' Sniffer may one day find himself in a bad spot due to his own crookedness and stupidity. (It's a long shot, but maybe real Justice will be done, one day.)
If and when that happens, it'll be amusing to see what nonsense Caryn Johnson spouts off about it.

No, Presidents don't do that. But making crap up for inflammatory rhetoric, that's what Whoopi does.
