They’re the ones that wanted it! An actual political witch-hunt! That he was, in fact, a witch is besides the point!
I guess nailing Hunter for being a gun-toting Murican doesn’t quite have the optics they were looking for
I mean, I’m not going to wade into whatever shit waters it would take to see how right wing audiences are reacting to this.
It’s a nothing burger to end all nothing burgers for those of us on the left. I’m not sure how the right is reacting to it. I don’t care. I don’t think it changes anything.
You don’t need to, they are going to be reacting badly, just like always
They’re a group with the collective mental resilience of a toddler.
…what…?
And to clarify what I mean by that:
…what…?
This was their headline fucking thing for MONTHS. They distracted themselves.
No matter what happens, they have to invent some stupid shit. Would be nice if these deranged people got an education and something better to do with their collective time. it’s also like playing poker with some coked up asshole who accuses you of cheating even when you lose.
How TF are these morons in power? Why are people even reporting this odiotic nonsense. If no one listened to them they’d get pissy and fade away.
Maybe. I can dream.Because some people think elections are someone else’s problem.
Heh. finding out that cars don’t taste so good after all when you’ve caught them?
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Republicans responded to Hunter Biden’s conviction on Tuesday of lying about his drug use to buy a gun by doubling down on conspiracy theories that many senior party figures have been using to try and damage his president father.
Despite the fact that Joe Biden’s son could now face a hefty jail sentence, Donald Trump’s election campaign and its surrogates repeated unfounded attack lines that the conviction was part of a conspiracy to deflect attention from more serious crimes and represented the use of the Department of Justice (DoJ) as a political weapon.
Matt Gaetz, the far-right congressman from Florida, was distinctly dismissive, posting on X: “The Hunter Biden gun conviction is kinda dumb tbh.”
That was echoed by Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist and founder of Turning Point USA, who derided the conviction as a distraction from worse crimes he claimed have been committed by the president’s family.
Trump’s case was led by a New York state prosecutor, who does not work under the department’s jurisdiction, while Hunter Biden was prosecuted by the DoJ, which is part of his father’s administration.
But Republicans have also alleged – but so far failed to provide evidence – that his former connection to the Ukrainian state oil company Burisma profited his father.
