Wait, so your argument isn't that the statement is nonsense or untrue, but....well he did it too!

And I have no trouble with anyone doing that being severely penalized, democrat, republicrat, whoever.

There is no doubt Kushner is raking in tens of millions in fees for handling the Saudi $2 billion. At least he did it 6 months after Trump was out of office. He didn't hide it behind shell corporations or take it in pallets of cash that mysteriously disappeared. Unethical? Yes. Illegal? No.

Trump not being in office at the time makes a huge difference, at least to me.  Hunter, in contrast, was openly and purposefully trading off his father's influence.

Simply say that DeSantis is a good governor and next thing you know, exploding heads. It’s ridiculous.

Again, Ron is reacting, not acting out like Don.  And it is long after Don slung arrows.

Trump has not pissed on Ronny's supporters.  Ron's slinging arrows at the very people he NEEDS to vote for him proves he's too stupid to be a national candidate.

Oh that's rich.  Is Donnie RICO the underboss, or does he have has own crew?  Not just anybody's son-in-law gets $2 billion from the Saudis.

@cato potatoe

Ahhh,I see.

You can justify supporting a career criminal in public office by accusing another candidate of doing what YOUR boy spent his whole life doing.

How many billions did Bush's buddies get from his made up Iraq war? The lying SOB should have been hung from the castle walls.

Shhh! He's trying to justify supporting a career criminal from a career criminal crime family by condemning someone new to politics that is richer.

@Maj. Bill Martin

What fries MY fritters more than a drugged-out drunk taking advantage of family connections to become wealthy is that there are SOOOO many professional politicians from BOTH parties that honestly don't seem to give a damn about it.

I guess Hunter could rape and set on fire a 9 year old girl in public,and they would probably ignore that,too. After all,raising a stink might influence THEIR cash-flow,right?

Agree

And despite the claim of the media, there is plenty of evidence suggesting that Hunter and Joe himself benefited off Joe’s influence

Ah, last I checked Ronny was a candidate in desperate need of my vote, not an anonymous poster on social media.  Get the difference?

You've already made it clear you won't turn your vote over to him willingly. So he'll just have to find two to make your vote irrelevant.

@sneakypete

Most Republicans have been going after him pretty hard. The only reason the DOJ was forced to do anything was that Republicans in Congress kept having hearings, and inviting witnesses who are not willing to let Hunter get away with it.

It’s going to take another administration and another DOJ to truly uncover the Hunter/Joe Biden crime spree

And it’s gonna have to be done in a way that doesn’t look like it’s just in retaliation for Donald Trump

Normally, the news media would be working to uncover the corruption. But today’s media is in the business of protecting Biden.

When, and if the Democrats find an acceptable replacement for Joe Biden, then the media will start investigating

Uh, no.  Never did that.  YOU were the one bringing up Bush.  Remember?  You were the one here tossing out the Bush name by making a rather pathetic  and idiotic attempt to falsely attach his name to my argument.  Don't blame me that your candidate happens to be significantly to the left of everyone in that family.  If you don't like that, then stop bringing up the name.

Earth to Pete, do you copy.  The STATE is accusing your “boy” in four jurisdictions.  As for Jared, my guess is what he did will remain legal if Trump wins re-election.  Good luck convincing people that Hunter is worse.

And it seems that NOBODY that is in a position to do anything about it has ANY interest in DOING anything about it.

The only people in a position to do anything of substance right now are Biden, and those he appointed.

That's why Republicans in Congress have adopted the only strategy available to them - subpoena documents and hold public hearings in an effort to keep this issue in the public eye.

They don't really have any further recourse under the law.

Half of the Desantis 2024 crowd is pushing the BS excuse that Desantis called GOP congressmen “listless vessels” — not Trump supporters

The other half is doubling down. “Desantis is right!”

This is a crisis in Tallahassee and a disastrous start to debate week
