Senate Majority Leader John Thune was asked about Trump\u2019s J6 pardons by reporters today and he had a nearly perfect answer. He simply reminded them that Joe Biden exists and was president up until yesterday.<\/p>\n

The media sure has a short memory. Do they not recall all of the pardons that Biden has issued? some within the last 24 hours?<\/p>\n

Thune handled this really well.<\/p>\n

Townhall<\/a> reports:<\/p>\n

\n

Sen. John Thune (R-SD) had some pointed comments for Democrats complaining about President Donald Trump\u2019s decision to pardon almost 1,500 individuals convicted on charges related to the riot at the U.S. Capitol building on January 6, 2021.<\/p>\n

The president rankled more than a few feathers when he issued the pardons, with high-profile Democrats criticizing the move. Yet, as Thune pointed out, perhaps Democrats should be more upset with former President Joe Biden for paving the way for this move.<\/p>\n

While answering questions from reporters on Capitol Hill, Thune addressed the issue directly. He noted that he is not familiar with each executive order Trump issued on his first day back in office but highlighted Democrats\u2019 role in the matter. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe said all along that Biden opened the door on this,\u201d Thune said, seeming to refer to the former president\u2019s decision to pardon his son, Hunter, as well as other members of his family.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Democrats are super upset about the J6 pardons but seem to have no problem with Biden\u2019s questionable pardons. Watch Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer in this video.<\/p>\n

They don\u2019t even seem to care about their obvious hypocrisy.<\/p>\n
