Former President Donald Trump, the 2024 GOP presidential frontrunner, anticipates that President Joe Biden might pardon his son, Hunter Biden, if he is convicted of the criminal charges he currently faces.
Despite the White House’s repeated assertions that Joe Biden will not pardon his son, concerns have been raised that Biden might consider doing so after the next election, as he would no longer face voters.
Karine Jean-Pierre said, “I’ve been very clear; the president is not going to pardon his son.”
Trump also mentioned that his attorneys suggested he pardon himself before leaving office, but he decided against it, asserting his innocence and not wanting to be the first president to pardon himself. (Trending: Hollywood A-Listers Revealed In Epstein Court Documents)

“I think he [Joe Biden] would do anything. I think he’s a guy that would do anything. He probably would do that,” said Trump.
“You know, I could have pardoned myself,” claimed the former president.
“I had a couple of lawyers that said these people are crazy, if you don’t do it you’ll go through a lot. I said I didn’t do anything wrong so I’m not going to do it. But I could have pardoned myself when I left the White House. That would have held up very strongly. Pardon is a very powerful right. I didn’t do it because I thought it would be totally inappropriate, and if you do that you look guilty somewhat. But I had that option and I was given that very strong option by lawyers somewhat,” he added.
“I was given that by numerous lawyers who said, ‘If you want to do that you could because you’re going to spend a lot of your time in court and these people are totally nuts, they’re bad people, they hate our country, and they hate you. They have Trump Derangement Syndrome, so, sir, you could pardon yourself now so you won’t have to go through it,’ and I said, ‘I don’t want to do that for purposes of history. I don’t want that history that I pardoned myself, because I did nothing wrong,’” explained Trump.
