I don't get the argument of "it's just tax fraud.' People get charged for tax evasion every year, and 2/3 get jail time for it. https://www.ussc.gov/sites/default/files/pdf/research-and-publications/quick-facts/Tax_Fraud_FY16.pdf
He avoided $1.5 million and filed a false return. People have received prison terms for less.
and he subsequently paid it.
Now I don't think he deserved hard prison time. But pardoning him before even the sentence was handed down after stating he would not pardon him is definitely a bad look. He avoided taxes, turned in a fraud tax return and lied to buy a gun. How exactly was Hunter being treated unfairly by being charged for things he admitted to doing? Because he said "sorry" and wrote a book about it its unfair he's now charged?
If there was fraud determined, then the DOJ can press charges. Paying fees on skipped taxes does not exempt you from charges. Not paying $1.5 million in taxes is kinda a big deal, people have and do go to prison for less.0 -

If you want to go that route, wouldn't it be more ironic that the anti gun party wants to skip out on gun charges?0 -

Choccoloccotide said:I could care less if Hunter was pardoned over tax evasion and gun charges. But I do care that he’s going to get away with being the bag man for the Biden family international money laundering scheme. Trump should pardon ALL J6ers, b/c there’s not a damn thing that can be said about it now after this.0

The IRS charges tax plus penalties and interest. The penalties can be severe if you don't file and owe a lot. It sounded to me like Hunter was taking "loans" from his business rather than payroll. The IRS basically said you can't do that and reclassified the loans as compensation.Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)
