Hunter Biden: so what?

Post by commonsense »

Is there any evidence that VP Joe Biden participated in Hunter’s business dealings?

Was Hunter Biden conducting illegal foreign lobbying with his father’s approval?

What responsibilities did Brandon have in directing the actions of his grown son?

If Pres. Biden should have been impeached as Vice President, should he be impeached now instead?

Is the “what about” game appropriate for comparisons among political figures?

Convince me that I am wrong to dismiss Hunter’s problems as beneath politics by answering any of the above questions.

1) indirectly, and possibly with direct benefits to JB (if the reports are accurate).

2) Exploiting his influence, certainly. Highly unethical. Illegal? Remains to be seen.

3) Impossible to say. Powerful people can direct other (empowered) people to guide and counsel.

4) Why impeached as VP? For what? (No, he should not be impeached. Neither should DT have been. Unless real evidence of corruption is uncovered. And even then: legal proceedings must be postponed till after the elections).

5) Inappropriate. Inevitable.

6) Depends what *real evidence* is uncovered. So far — not enough (to implicate JB).

Leaders of countries and societies are demonstrative of moral Archetypes, the type of men which should be looked-up to as role models, and what the average citizen should aspire toward.

So...do you look-up to Joseph and Hunter Biden? Is that the type of morality you want for yourself, between father and son?

Between President and Citizen?

The Trump appointed justice officials responsible for this case has looked for years and found nothing.

Think about that.

Are you sure you want to talk about morality?

Both sides in your insane country throw equal amounts of shit at each other that no one understands or gives a crap about, thereby cancelling each other out. It's simple maths.

This much is clear though: Trump isn't senile yet, so that little equation doesn't yet cancel out...

Why indeed would anyone start a thread about him/it/them?
