From the New York Post: Former President Donald Trump said Thursday he wouldn’t rule out pardoning convicted first son Hunter Biden — assuming his incumbent father doesn’t do so first.
“I wouldn’t take it off the books,” the Republican nominee, 78, told syndicated radio host Hugh Hewitt during an interview after previously declining to say whether he would grant clemency to Hunter, 54.
“See, unlike Joe Biden, despite what they’ve done to me, where they’ve gone after me so viciously, despite what — and Hunter’s a bad boy. There’s no question about it. He’s been a bad boy. All you had to do is see the laptop from hell — but I happen to think it’s very bad for our country,” Trump said.
“I could have gone after Hillary. I could have gotten Hillary Clinton very easily,” Trump continued. “And when they say lock her up, whenever they said ‘lock her,’ you know, they’d start, 30,000 people, ‘lock her up, lock her up.’ What did I do? I always say take it easy, just relax. We’re winning. Take it easy. Take it easy.”
“I could have had her put in jail. And I decided I didn’t want to do that. I thought it would look terrible. You had the wife of the president of the United States going to jail. I thought it would be very bad if we did that. And I made sure that didn’t happen, OK? I thought it would be bad,” Trump added.

On special counsel Jack Smith, Trump said he would “fire him in two seconds,” which has created an uproar from liberals.
Trump says if he’s elected, he would fire Special Counsel Jack Smith “within two seconds.” His first order of business is not the economy, health care, or the border. His primary goal is to protect himself after being indicted twice. That’s why he’s running for president. pic.twitter.com/QdXIThkaVs
