    What this actually proves is that Hunter Biden made good on a loan from his father, and kept track of these repayments on an actual spreadsheet.

    No wonder Republicans are so upset, this might establish a precedent that people ought to repay loans, and not just leave others on the hook for them

      That’s what they already think. See student loans and Biden.

        And here I thought they were for predatory loans driving people into bankruptcy but not allowing them to offload the debt unless it’s a corporation.

        See Biden and student loan forgiveness.

          Yes. As I said to someone else, it’s all hypocritical. The republicans only care about how they serve themselves and the narrative will always be whatever helps them get what they covet.

            And you think it’s hypocritical that Democrats are trying to do something to help Americans struggling with student loans? Your logic is not clear.

              I literally did not say that at all. I was commenting on the republican side of things.

              I personally think it’s fine, and owed, to give student loan debt relief. That is not full wipe outs for everyone, it’s a helpful token that helps everyone. Businesses and wealthy always get the kickbacks but struggling people get one little bone and others throw a hissy fit.

        Which paradoxically differs from how they view PPP loans. Or is it hypocritically?

      Clearly, the Republicans must impeach Biden now. Do you know how much this could hurt Trump if “people have to pay back their debts” catches on?!!!

    So… wait… if Hunter was so low on cash that his dad was having to cover his car loan, and Hunter repaid back that money… then doesn’t that mean he WASN’T getting millions and millions from China?

    So Hunter paid Joe about $4100 over three months when neither of them were government employees or office holders.

    Next they’ll bring out evidence Joe paid for hunter’s orthodontics in 82 and that proves they’ve been in cohoots the whole time.

        universal healthcare would be cheaper than what we pay now.

        but both conservatives and democrats dont want universal healthcare… now go figure out why

          I WAS actually going to say “more than the transition to universal single payer healthcare would cost, after which it would be cheaper than the current system of paying trillions to private insurers for denying as much care as they possibly can”, but I could come up with a concise with better punctuation way of saying it 😁

            i like to put it this way and have people try and make it not sound terrible:

            health insurance profits only come at the expense of human suffering.

            repeat it. shout it. because its the truth no one wants to say out loud.

    I’m not a fan of Biden. I held my nose when voting for him. But if all these investigations can’t turn up ONE thing besides for Hunter’s huge cock then the Biden’s are way less corrupt then I thought. That’s a pleasant surprise!

      Hunter Biden’s whole life was turned inside and out in 2014 when he joined the board of Burisma. The Republicans tried to make it a scandal then but he was cleared of any wrongdoing or nepotism by the Office of Government Ethics in 2014. I literally cannot even find those stories anymore because of how the media resurrected the story and saturated the public record to create a fake scandal. Like yeah, he probably got the job because of his last name, but the only reason Burisma wanted his last name is because this was a company dedicated to the sole goal of getting Ukraine off of dependence on Russian oil and for that it needed credibility in the West, who cares about that?
