The verdict undermines their claims that the U.S. Department of Justice has been “weaponized” against Donald Trump and his supporters.
Several prominent Republicans said they were not impressed by the guilty verdict against President Joe Biden’s son on Tuesday, complaining that the government should have busted him for worse crimes.
A Delaware jury found Hunter Biden, 54, guilty on three counts related to a gun purchase in 2018 when he was addicted to crack cocaine. Hunter Biden’s crimes carry a prison sentence of up to 25 years.
“This trial has been nothing more than a distraction from the real crimes of the Biden Crime Family, which has raked in tens of millions of dollars from China, Russia and Ukraine,” Karoline Leavitt, a spokesperson for Donald Trump’s Republican presidential campaign, said in reaction to the verdict.
Aren’t the Republicans the reason why this began?
Of course they are. What they wanted wasn’t what they got though. What they wanted was for hunter to walk. Since that didn’t happen they have no position to whine about it and of course they are whining about that.
Reminds me of my zealously religious family members, they can take any argument and twist it into supporting their beliefs.
But he’ll do it on the way out, I’m sure. Hunter has served his purpose as being a showpiece for the belligerent right, albeit not as good as they hoped, and someone’s kept the email traffic where they strategized about this as a distraction.
I hope Hunter is safe in the Fed clink, and I hope if he’s still got a substance issue that it gets resolved.
Ask Monica Lewinsky.
