I Rudy Giuliani had found even the slightest inkling of anything incriminating he would have been shouting it from the Four Seasons Landscaping parking lot before the election. Instead, we got nothing but vague insinuations for years. There’s nothing there.
I’ve tried following along.
“Hunter Biden is Joe’s son!”
“He had a drug problem!”
“He tried to leverage his father’s job to make money!”
Beyond that, I’ve haven’t heard of any dots to even try to connect. Is it unethical for a politician’s son to leverage his nepotism? Yes it is. And it was that way when George W. did it in the 1980s. In fact I’ve heard how unethical it is from Donald Trump, whose daughter and son-in-law were given high-level advisory positions at the White House despite one of them being unable to pass security clearance. I’ve heard it from Bill Barr, whose daughter and son-in-law worked for the Executive Branch. I’ve heard it from Rudy Giuliani, whose son is an assistant to then President Trump. I’ve heard it from Mitch McConnell, whose wife was appointed Secretary of Transportation despite several material conflicts of interest by then President Trump. I’ve heard it from Ron Paul’s son, and Mitt Romney’s niece.
I’m soooo grateful that the Republicans are all so willing to teach us that nepotism and use of family connections to get ahead are a sign of fundamental corruption. It’s an unethical (and maybe criminal) breech to use your name to get jobs If you are a Democrat. That’s the narrative to keep in mind here.
Since we know today's conservatives don’t actually care about rooting out corruption, we know that it doesn’t matter to them what's on the laptop or what Hunter Biden did or didn’t do; just like it didn’t matter what was actually in Hillary’s emails, or what policy changes could have improved the outcome in Benghazi, or what specific version of his birth certificate Obama produced. Obama = illegitimate. Benghazi = traitors. Hillary = lock her up. The goal here is to just keep up the association for consumers of conservative media that Biden = corrupt. Keep talking about it. Say those two words in the same sentence over and over again until it becomes the truth.
As today’s ‘conservatives’ have proven time and time again, it’s always easiest to lie to oneself.
