20. I didn't say Joe hired his boy

Just that Hunter used his Dad's name to make some good dough...that seems irrefutable. Not saying I wouldn't have done the same thing if my Pop had been famous and had some political influence if I didn't really have to do anything for it.

I wouldn't have done anything illegal, unpatriotic or used my Pop to then influence peddle...which I do not believe Hunter did. No matter how much the GOP tries to say he did if/when they have a show hearing later this year.

Just looks real bad and wish he hadn't put his father in such a position, is all. Seriously doubt it will derail him, thankfully. And it's not like Dems don't have a target-rich environment when it comes to corrupt kids who've done FAR worse than anything Hunter ever did.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
