Jon Stewart: Dems Must Abandon Norms, Fight Fire With Fire
On *The Daily Show*, Jon Stewart criticized President Biden’s pardon of Hunter Biden, not for the pardon itself, but for the Democrats’ prior use of Biden’s promise *not* to pardon his son as a cornerstone of their “law and order” platform. Stewart argued this created a perception of hypocrisy and undermined public trust in the system. He urged Democrats to utilize legal loopholes and strategies, but to do so for the benefit of all citizens, not just those connected to powerful individuals. This inconsistency, Stewart contended, fuels the belief that the system is rigged.
