    I'm sure if one of Trump's children was given a cushy job in a foreign country they weren't qualified for and were paid very well you would just say "Sounds okay" right?

    And Joe Biden's son was kicked out of the military because he couldn't get enough cocaine, was almost immediately given a high paying job he isn't qualified for in another country, said company was then being investigated for corruption then Joe Biden literally bragged about how he threatened withhold aid to said country unless they fired the prosecutor investigating said company. And that doesn't even warrant a formal investigation? What's wrong, Back, afraid there might be even more evidence that Joe Biden and Obama were corrupt? If Joe Biden has nothing to hide he should welcome an investigation. Isn't that what leftists such as yourself said about Trump and Kavanaugh? Funny how that goes right out the window when it involves a Democrat.

    If everything us above board, yep, I would. Do you think it will be ok for the next democrat president to ask a foreign country to investigate Trump's children? You're crazy if you do.

    Your lack of wanting to read more is the issue. You would have seen that the prosecutor was investigating the owner of that company before Hunter was hired and that investigation was on hold when Joe pressured them to fire the prosecutor because the prosecutor was not doing enough to investigate corruption in the first place.

    What exactly do you consider "above board"?

    If they were profiting off of nothing but the fact that their father was the president? Yeah I would be fine with that. Look, Back, I would have no problem if Hunter Biden had a long history of being paid 50k a month for being a consultant or whatever his bogus job title was. But you don't think it's just a tad fishy that he goes from being kicked out of the military because he loved drugs so much to right into being paid 50k a month in a foreign firm where he didn't even have to show up to work or anything? That instantly passes the sniff test for you?

    No one ever said the investigation started BECAUSE of Hunter Biden or anything. If anything the fact that the prosecutor was investigating this company before Hunter Biden was hired and was then forced to resign after Hunter Biden was hired just makes this all look much worse.

    You're crazy. And really, while going after your political opponent's children isn't illegal, its a garbage move.

    Again you don't think it's a tad fishy that Hunter Biden went straight from being kicked out of the military for failing drug tests to landing a cushy 50k a month job in Ukraine where he doesn't even have to show up for work? That seems normal to you and doesn't sound like corruption?

    Can you name one other person in the history of the world who has managed to do the same?

    Biden literally bragged about blackmailing the Ukraine. You people will go at Trump for anything.

    If its anything it may be nepotism but there is no evidence of that and nepotism in business is not necessarily corrupt. People get friends and family jobs all the time. Its pretty common. If Joe directly appointed Hunter to a job in the US government with a huge salary that would be an issue of corrupt nepotism.

    That wasn't blackmail, it was out in the open, and it had support from Obama, the EU, the IMF, and others for the benefit of fighting corruption in Ukraine.

    So nepotism in politics in suddenly okay now?

    Shit the left had a fit when Trump appointed his daughter and son-in-law to unpaid positions within his cabinet, but they are perfectly fine with Biden using his influence to secure a high paying job for his son for which he is not qualified for. Yup. No corruption going on here!

    You're not reading what I post and purposely misrepresenting my points. Thats always been your issue. I'm still here as usual trying to tell you to stop listening to the people who are telling you that your fellow Americans are your enemy. The real enemies are outside of America. In my opinion corruption from Russia has seeped into our and others politics.
