A US jury found President Biden's son Hunter guilty of 3 charges of owning a gun for a week illegally and lying on the forms about drug use. At the time he was dealing with a severe addiction to cocaine but working on his recovery.
Almost no one is ever charged for this unless they commit another crime using the illegally-owned gun. This is similar to many states' seat belt laws: You won't be pulled over for foolishly driving without buckling up unless you've committed some other infraction. Then you get the additional ticket.
Nonetheless, the jury has fairly spoken.
Notice that NO ONE in the President's family, none of the Progressive pundits, or any hosts on MSNBC are shrieking, "Unfair! Witch hunt! Conflicted judge! Did nothing wrong! Rigged! Weaponized!"
President Biden himself, last week on ABC, stated he would accept the verdict and would not hand his son a pardon, despite the fact that the prosecutor was a holdover from Trump's term. Did the President have the power to fire the prosecutor? Yes. Did he? No. Does the President have the power to pardon his son? Yes. Will he? No.
This is how a fair and honorable president who understands the judicial system shows respect toward it, even at the expense of his own son.
Now imagine if an Obama-era prosecutor was held over into the Trump administration. Of course that would never happen. And imagine if that prosecutor brought a trial against one of Trump's spawn. Would that continue? Of course not. Trump would never keep the Obama prosecutor on the job, never let his spawn be tried, and never accept the consequences.
Trump's MAGATS are happy because they finally got a little, tiny checkmark in the win column. Yep, Hunter illegally had a gun for a week. But their cult leader still has 34 felonies and committed financial fraud, election interference, was judged to have raped E Jean Carol, incited a violent insurrection, stole classified documents, war plans and nuclear secrets, schemed with henchmen to send fake electors to 7 states, defamed and slandered election workers, demanded Georgia concoct 11,780 non-existent votes for him, among other crimes.
