President Joe Biden ruled out pardoning his son Hunter Biden if he’s found guilty of the criminal gun charges he’s currently facing.
Biden sat down with ABC News anchor David Muir at the Normandy American Cemetery on the 80th anniversary of D-Day, and he touched on the legal troubles of both his son and Donald Trump.
Asked if he would accept the outcome of his son’s trial, which is currently ongoing in Wilmington, Delaware, Biden said, “yes.” He followed up with another “yes” when asked if he would rule out a pardon for his son, should he be found guilty. The younger Biden is facing federal gun charges.
Biden was also asked about Trump’s recent conviction in his hush money trial in Manhattan. The former president was convicted on more than 30 felony counts related to falsifying business records.
“He got a fair trial. The jury spoke,” Biden said on Thursday, accusing his presumptive November opponent of trying to “undermine” the justice system with his accusations of a rigged trial.
The full interview between Muir and Biden airs at 6:30 p.m. ET on World News Tonight.
