Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse, predicted Hunter Biden’s conviction in Delaware on Monday. He believes the First Son is unlikely to receive a paternal pardon this side of the November election.
“There is a circumstance where, if they want to show that there is some equal justice under the law here, they might try and pull the wool over people’s eyes and say, ‘No, look, you know, Hunter Biden has to pay a fine as well for breaking the law,'” Kassam told Dinesh D’Souza.
“I don’t think Joe will try and attempt a pardon… I’m not certain, I’ll say, where this case is going, but what I think is certain is that there isn’t going to be a presidential pardon if Hunter is convicted,” he added.
Speaking to @DineshDSouza yesterday, @RaheemKassam predicted Hunter Biden would be convicted, to “prove” Donald Trump is not being treated unfairly. He doesn’t think the First Son can count on a paternal pardon either, at least not before the election. pic.twitter.com/c8CzgftnG1

Hunter was convicted of all charges against him, related to unlawful firearms possession while abusing drugs, in Delaware early Tuesday. He faces further charges for tax crimes in California later this year.
Biden stressed his “boundless love,” “confidence in,” and “respect for” the “strength” of his son prior to the verdict, while insisting he would not pardon him.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has also claimed Biden will not pardon the First Son.
