“They act so self-righteous”: Charlamagne rips Dems for claiming “high ground” after Biden pardon
Charlamagne Tha God thinks that Democrats can no longer claim any moral authority after President Joe Biden pardoned his son.
During a visit to “The View” on Wednesday, the radio host fell into a heated debate with host Whoopi Goldberg over the president’s decision to clear his son of several tax and gun-related charges. In particular, Charlamagne took offense at Biden’s insistence that he w

Goldberg countered that Biden was flipping the table of a rigged game.
“He got sick of watching everybody else get over,” Goldberg shared, seemingly pointing to the vacated cases against President-elect Donald Trump.

The president laid out his reasoning for pardoning Hunter Biden in a statement shared earlier this week. He said that his son was the victim of “raw politics” and that the cases against him were an attack from the GOP.

Enough is enough.”
