David Brooks on Hunter Biden Pardon: Democracies Fall When Practices And Norms That Work Get Slowly Abandoned

The article from RealClearPolitics features David Brooks discussing the implications of a potential Hunter Biden pardon by President Joe Biden. Brooks argues that democracies deteriorate when established practices and norms are gradually abandoned. He suggests that if Biden were to pardon his son, it would represent a significant deviation from the norm, potentially undermining the rule of law and public trust in governmental institutions. Brooks emphasizes that such actions could contribute to the erosion of democratic integrity, as they signal to the public that personal or familial interests can supersede legal accountability. He also touches on broader themes of how democracies fail not through sudden coups but through the slow degradation of ethical standards and institutional trust.
