Poll Shows Majority of Biden Voters Believe Hunter Biden Should Serve Prison Time

[Social Media]

 

In a revealing new poll, a significant majority of voters who supported President Joe Biden in the 2020 election believe that his son, Hunter Biden, should serve prison time following his recent conviction on gun charges. Conducted by Redfield & Wilton Strategies, the survey of 2,500 registered voters found that 60 percent believe Hunter Biden deserves a custodial sentence. Among those who voted for Biden, 57 percent echoed this sentiment. 

 

Hunter Biden’s legal troubles stem from his conviction by a Delaware jury in June for illegally purchasing a firearm while using drugs, specifically crack cocaine, and lying about his drug use on a government form in May 2018. Despite Hunter’s denials and claims of not being an active drug user at the time, he faces a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison, with his sentencing scheduled no later than October 9. 

 

However, some legal experts argue that Hunter Biden might not receive a lengthy prison sentence. David Bredin of the Bredin Law Firm in New York suggested to Newsweek that Hunter might spend around a year in prison, factoring in good behavior and his lack of prior criminal history. "Factoring in good behavior, he will be released early as he has no criminal history, and other guidelines are taken into account," Bredin noted.

 

In addition to the gun charge, Hunter Biden is also set to stand trial in California in September over allegations that he failed to pay $1.4 million in taxes between 2016 and 2019. This series of legal battles comes amid increased scrutiny and accusations from former President Donald Trump, who has claimed that President Biden has “weaponized” the Department of Justice against him to hinder his chances in the upcoming election.

 

Interestingly, the Redfield & Wilton Strategies poll also highlighted broader voter concerns about the justice system. A majority of 58 percent of respondents believe the U.S. justice system is currently being "abused" for political purposes, a view shared by 53 percent of Biden voters. 

 

This sentiment reflects the ongoing political tensions surrounding Trump’s legal challenges. Trump, who became the first U.S. president in history to be convicted of a crime after a New York jury found him guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records on May 30, has consistently denied any wrongdoing. He has labeled the investigation by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office as a politically motivated "witch hunt" aimed at preventing his 2024 election bid.

 

The poll results indicate mixed voter reactions to Trump's legal issues. About 34 percent of Americans say Trump's hush money conviction makes them more likely to vote for him in November, compared to 29 percent who say it makes them less likely to do so. Furthermore, 31 percent believe Trump's conviction increases his chances of winning the 2024 election, while 29 percent think it diminishes his chances.

 

These findings come amid heightened political drama and legal battles involving both President Biden’s family and Trump. The Supreme Court's recent landmark ruling that Trump is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution in the federal 2020 election if his actions can be found to be considered "official acts" carried out in office adds another layer to this complex legal and political landscape.

 

Hunter Biden’s situation also continues to evolve, with his legal team maintaining his innocence and disputing the charges. His case has drawn significant public attention not only because of his high-profile father but also due to the broader implications it has for discussions about justice and political bias in the U.S.

 

The Redfield & Wilton Strategies poll, conducted between June 26-28 with a margin of error of plus or minus 1.96 percentage points, provides a snapshot of current voter sentiment amid these ongoing issues. The findings suggest that while there is a considerable appetite for holding Hunter Biden accountable among Biden voters, there is also a pervasive sense of disillusionment with the justice system’s perceived politicization.

He shouldnt for the BS gun charges. Nobody but him would get charged for that, it wouldn't have been investigated. His Capone moment will come on the tax charges. The gun convictions will give him felony points. They do keep score. Hopefully Joe is removed before he is convicted as that case is open and shut.  If he isn't pardoned they can try to make him explain where the money came from. 

 

Although thinking about it if he is pardoned he can be subpoenaed and can't use the fifth.

Hmmm, a drug crazed man purchases a gun and ticks the box saying he is not a drug crazed man ! Cannot see why you believe he should not be charges. He a crook , he should be in prison for much more than this. The only reason he is not in prison now is due to his Daddy. You can even see now that he is promoting Daddy to run again as it benefits HIM , not his dad ! Selfish bottom !

Surely the head of the crime family can get him off this given his powerful position?

 

It's only a few guns, some crack cocaine and prostitutes. Jill must be so proud seeing him in the dock. "Well done Hunter, you answered ALL the questions".

and I would guess 99.99% of Trump supporters agree he should go to jail.   ( .01% missing there is alway 1 idiot in the crowd )

What he meant was that he wasn't actively using drugs at the time he was filling out the form - because he couldn't hold the drugs and the form and a pen in his hands at the same time.

Are you a believer in 'the corrupt biden family?'

 

Is yes, can you please share why?

I'm just the opposite.  I'm a Biden detractor and I don't care at all whether Hunter goes to prison on the gun charge. 

 

It's a bit of a nuthin' burger and delays and detracts from his upcoming cases that actually may implicate the sitting president.  Or maybe not.  But let's play fair and get the subpoenas and the testimony in before election day...

What I mean is that typically you wouldn't get prison for a first offense on that charge. Also it would have never came up if it wasn't somebody famous. People lie on gun forms everyday especially now that pot is legal in certain states but not federally. Basically if you smoke pot and hunt you are a potential felon now. 

 

I am no Hunter Biden fan but this is just small peanuts. As I said it will count as felony points when they consider his sentencing for the tax charges. That seems about right to me.
