While most Americans do not agree with the president’s decision to pardon his son, they have a more favorable view of his performance in the White House, a new poll shows.
A new poll shows only 2 in 10 Americans approve of President Joe Biden ’s decision to pardon his son Hunter.The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research conducted the poll which shows some Americans "strongly" or "somewhat" approve of the pardon, which came after Hunter was convicted on gun and tax charges. About half said they "strongly" or "somewhat" disapprove, and about 2 in 10 neither approve nor disapprove.
This age disconnect in part relates to younger adults who are more likely than older individuals to say they neither approve nor disapprove of the pardon or that they do not know enough to say, the AP noted. Meanwhile, roughly 6 in 10 white adults disapprove of the pardon, compared with slightly less than half of Hispanic adults and about 3 in 10 Black adults. Relatively large shares of Black and Hispanic Americans — about 3 in 10 — were neutral, the AP reported, citing the poll.
