Dave Portnoy attacks ‘liar’ Joe Biden for pardoning son Hunter and brands Democrats ‘f***ing scumbags’

Barstool boss Dave Portnoy has slammed ‘liar’ President Joe Biden for pardoning his son, Hunter Biden, on tax evasion and gun charges with his sentencing scheduled for later this month. 

Portnoy has been a staunch supporter of President-elect and Biden political rival Donald Trump for several years. 

His disparaging remarks of Biden come after the President maintained he would not pardon his soon several times earlier this year. The change of heart also comes seven weeks before the beginning of Trump’s second term in the Oval Office. 

Some Democrats have claimed Hunter Biden is solely being targeted for the crimes because of his last name and as an attempt to disparage his father’s political acumen. 

On the other side of the aisle, Republicans, including Trump himself, have used the pardon as proof to the need for change in Washington. 

‘Biden pardoning his son is the most predictable thing ever. He’s a liar,’ Portnoy said. ‘The Democrats are liars. Everybody knows they are liars. Yet they somehow still try to play the moral righteous card. That’s why they got smoked.’

‘Side note I’d have more respect for him if he just said if Trump wins the election I’m gonna pardon my son cause I don’t want him to go to jail,’ Portnoy continued. ‘I’d do the same for my family. The Dems just think we are all stupid and they can continually lie to our faces without consequences.’ 

Portnoy doubled down on his stance with a longer video posted a few hours after he first called the President a liar. 

‘What the Democrats have done for 12 years, have taken this moral high ground, that we’re the righteous party, the truth, honest, integrity (party). And Trump is a threat to democracy. And he’s (Adolf) Hitler and a Nazi and this and that,’ Portnoy said. ‘… They’re worse than anything Trump’s ever done.’

‘It’s the lecturing, it’s the Democratic engine lying straight to our face, pretending they’re the moral righteous authority and thinking the American people are so stupid that we don’t see through it. Blow up the Democratic party.’ 

There is also a general consensus that Biden acted as any parent would in his situation. It also comes with the backdrop of the 82-year-old’s defiance that he would ever use the pardon for his son.

‘I believe in the justice system, but as I have wrestled with this, I also believe raw politics has infected this process and it led to a miscarriage of justice — and once I made this decision this weekend, there was no sense in delaying it further,’ Biden said in a statement.

‘I hope Americans will understand why a father and a President would come to this decision.’

Biden’s pardon covers all offenses committed from January 2014 to present day.  

‘Does the Pardon five by Joe to Hunter include the J-6 Hostages who have now been imprisoned for years?’ Trump said on social media. ‘Such an abuse and miscarriage of Justice!’

Trump has mentioned plans during his second administration to pardon those arrested and awaiting sentencing from the January 6 insurrection. 

The President-elect calls them ‘hostages’ in his social-media message, a lie itself for those who attacked police officers and more in 2021.  

Trump himself incited the insurrection, with many of those arrested incorrectly believing the President-elect also won the 2020 election despite losing to Biden. 

In the 2024 election, Trump defeated Vice President Kamala Harris by around 2.5million votes.  

The political ramifications of the pardon are unclear, as Biden will not run for public office again. Yet, many of Biden’s allies are not leaving politics.
