On Sunday night, President Joe Biden issued an unexpected pardon to exclude his son Hunter Biden from all federal charges that were against him!
The announcement shocked the nation unintentionally! It completely broke the trust of those voters who elected him and believed in him!
Ironically, for many times, Joe Biden has told the public that he would not pardon his son but he did not keep his words eventually!
He failed to put his personal interests behind the law and order! This bad example will further erode Americans' faith that the justice system is fair and equal for all!
President-elect Donald Trump calling it "an abuse and miscarriage of justice".
Both democratic party and republican party criticized the irresponsible decision of Biden that they believe the judge system has been damaged by the rude behavior of a sitting president!
The impact of damage will take years to recover and to be repaired!
