The best way to sum up my view of him, after pardoning an online dope dealer serving a life sentence (Ross Ulbricht), he wages a holy war on drug trafficking by blowing up some boats.
Yes, Biden also pardoned drug dealers; however, he didn’t free any lifers. Even if Ulbricht’s sentence was excessive, there’s no way he should’ve been pardoned and freed just like that. If Trump had commuted his sentence to 30 years (as Biden did with one lifer), it would’ve been less blatantly pandering to some tech bro crowd.
