    Anyone who doesn’t understand how this relates to Joe has a baby brain. I guess all those Ukrainian and Chinese private equity investors gave brain dead, crack addicted hunter millions to blow on hookers and makeup because of his astounding business acumen

      The “best” lib answer is that sure, they paid Hunter for influence but Joe didn’t actually do anything for them. Which a.) isn’t how conflict of interest works, it’s the situation itself that’s the problem, and b.) strains credulity, since after the first few hundies if they weren’t getting anything in return you assume they would just stop.

        The funny thing is they’re just reaping what they sowed when going after trump. “The swamp” is fucking real, the entire thing is stacked with corrupt weasels, and I’m sure if you started turning over rocks around basically any senator and their families you would pull out countless instances of corruption and inappropriate behavior though certainly not to this extent.

        And I agree with you the libs trying to sell us joes innocence must think we’re the dumbest motherfuckers on earth

          It’s like, libs want us to be mad about George Santos. He’s doing penny ante corruption while someone like Pelosi is really cashing in.
