Sports broadcaster/podcast host Stephen A. Smith told Democrats “nobody wants to hear what you have to say” after President Joe Biden’s sweeping pardon of son Hunter Biden.
During “The Stephen A. Smith Show” on Monday, the host said Biden’s reversal of course to pardon Hunter for any federal crimes he “committed or may have committed” over the span of 11 years has essentially neutered his party.
“You were intending to do this all along, which, again, is no problem. But it doesn’t make you any less full of it,” Smith told his audience. “Because when you look at Donald Trump and how the Democrats went after him, you do understand that the Democrats are no longer in a position to say anything, right?”
“You can talk till the cows come home,” he added. “You whistling it to the wind. Nobody wants to hear what you have to say right now. I’m not talking about you; I’m talking about your party. Because when you pardon your son, going back on your word, telling the American people there was no way that you were going to pardon him when everybody and their grandmamma knew you were lying, but then hold you accountable for it.”
“And now you’ve confirmed what people believe, that you’re probably going to be lying about that very thing that you said you wouldn’t do for your son,” Smith continued. “And as a result, now you have brought more skepticism in the direction of the Democratic Party.”

“He [Hunter] was singled out because he had an illegal gun and tax evasion charges, not because he was the president’s son. And I honestly don’t care. I just want Democrats to stop acting like they are on this moral high ground politically when they have shown us they’re not.”
“You know, whether it’s skipping the primary process when Biden stepped down and things like Biden pardoning his son,” he added. “Stop acting like y’all are the pure party and Republicans aren’t. And it also shows me elected officials can do whatever they want as long as they have the political will and courage to do it.”
Barstool founder Dave Portnoy echoed a similar sentiment, unleashing a rant on the Democrats — whom he said have completely lost the moral high ground they have attempted to tout for the last decade — after Biden pardoned his son.
“What the Democrats have done … have taken this moral high ground that ‘we’re the righteous party. The truth, honesty, integrity, and Trump is a threat to Democracy. He’s Hitler and he’s a Nazi,’” Portnoy said. “And then the Democrats, whether it’s the primary or whether it’s this [Hunter pardon], time and again, they’re worse than anything Trump’s ever done.”
