Biden made his brief statements on his son’s historic trial in an interview with ABC News anchor David Muir in Normandy, where Biden and other dignitaries were taking part in a service to commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day, a turning point for the Allied forces in World War II.
Asked if he would rule out a pardon for his son, who’s facing three federal gun-related charges in court in Delaware, Biden answered simply, “Yes.”
Asked if he would accept the outcome of the jury trial, a first for an offspring of a sitting president, he again replied, “Yes.”
“I’ve been very clear; the president is not going to pardon his son,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters in December.
In a statement when the trial started Monday, Biden said: “As the President, I don’t and won’t comment on pending federal cases, but as a Dad, I have boundless love for my son, confidence in him, and respect for his strength.
In the ABC interview, Biden also took aim at former President Donald Trump for refusing to accept a New York jury finding him guilty of 34 charges of falsifying business records last month, and calling the case “rigged.”
