Joe Biden says things, and then there’s reality
By Jack Hellner

Joe Biden is out in Pennsylvania saying that Trump got rich the old-fashioned way: he inherited it.  At least that is an honest way to get rich.  Trump inherited money, and he took a massive amount of risk and created a huge number of jobs.

Biden, on the other hand, got rich the same way a lot of politicians get rich.  He used his powerful position in government and took his son around the world on government-paid transportation, collecting kickbacks from a number of adversaries, including Russia, Ukraine, and China.  The only thing the Biden family had to sell was access to Joe.  They did not take risks.  They did not develop anything.  They did not have a service or product to sell.  They did not create jobs.  They created shell companies to launder the money through.  That is not an honest way to get rich, but a lot of corrupt politicians have achieved wealth the same way.

Biden also claims that Trump doesn't pay taxes.  He pays a huge amount of taxes — whether it is real estate taxes, payroll taxes, or income taxes when the tax code shows he owes them.

That is unlike Hunter, who sometimes didn't file tax returns when he didn't feel like it and didn't worry about following the tax code.  And it certainly appears that there were payments to Joe that were classified as loans with no documents to show they were loans.  That means they were income.  It also appears that Hunter paid a significant amount of Daddy's bills, which would also be a taxable event.

[LMAO]

That’s because Biden is not connected to reality. And sometimes redirecting a dementia patient can make them anxious or violent

I suppose we can say it’s Biden’s dementia that makes him say all this. But where are the media  fact checkers? They seem to be taking a break as of late

Joe Biden is out in Pennsylvania saying that Trump got rich the old-fashioned way: he inherited it.  At least that is an honest way to get rich.  Trump inherited money, and he took a massive amount of risk and created a huge number of jobs.

The kindest way to put it for Biden's sake is to say that Trump's business situation is wa-a-a-a-a-a-a-ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy more complex than than. What Trump inherited was a middling residential property management company, after having worked his way up through management thereof to CEO. I don't know how he went about it, but Trump transitioned what he inherited over to multiple hospitality industry enterprises, growing it by at least 2 or 3 orders of magnitude.

Biden's father had been wealthy, fell on hard times, and then became a very successful used car salesman. Joe attended a private Catholic college prep high school, went to University of Delaware and to Syracuse Law School. Joe earned his JD in 1968, was admitted to the bar in 1969, worked briefly at a law firm , and was elected to his first public office in 1970, and was elected US Senator in 1972. What LIEden knows (or knew) about running a business might fit into a dollhouse thimble.

Is that the PA trip in which LIEden claimed, twice, that his uncle had been eaten by cannibals? https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2024/04/whats-eating-joe.php

IRL, the uncle he was referring to was in a plane that lost power and crashed into the ocean off New Guinea during WW2. The uncle's body was never found, not by US forces, not by cannibals.

[LMAO]

I’ve read stories of how the tribes in New Guinea cannibalized Japanese soldiers

I haven’t read were they had a taste for Allied troops
