Does anyone really believe Biden is corrupt?

[Tahuyaman]

The Blue Dogs are gone. Purged.

Remeber when the had guys like Sam Nunn? He would be run out of the Democrat party today.

Odd? Yes.
Illegal? No.
Immoral? No.
Am I jealous? Yes.

Look, they wanted his last name on their board to lend it respectability. He gave it. They paid him for it. That ought to be the end of it.
Trump licenses out his name for ridiculous sums of money world wide, even in corrupt regimes. Do you find that odd?

If you have a theory about what is wrong/illegal/immoral with that, come out and say it.

Incidentally, when Donald Trump was around 5 years old his dad was paying him a 6 figure salary.

He was on the board because his last name prevented criminal prosecutions of the company. That is illegal.

[Rationalist]

I think you might have that backwards. Many on the right, Trump and Trump supporters see themselves as victims.

Victims of a "coup", a "witch hunt", gun grabbers, war on Christmas, a war against Christian and conservative values. Victims of illegal immigration, Muslim immigrants. Victims of mainstream media and Hollywood. Victims of the so called liberal agenda, gay agenda and the so called global warming hoax. Some conservatives would have us believe that men and specifically white men are oppressed. That's just the shortlist...

Ironically many conservatives use the term snowflake, yet they describe themselves as victims more than anyone these days.

Really now? And how does that compare with Affirmative Action, microaggressions, welfare dependency, wealth envy, reparations, and pretending that detainment of immigrants is tantamount to "concentration camps"?

There's not much respectability to gain when you've got a drug problem and a criminal record. Hunter is not exactly the overachiever of his family. He's like the Ted Kennedy of the Bidens.

[Tahuyaman]

It was around $83K a month.

And there's nothing wrong with a VP who has been put in charge of foreign policy as it pertains to the Ukraine to use conersion to force the firing of the prosecutor who is investigating corruption involving his son. Not even a hint of corruption. Let's move on. Joe said if elected, it won't happen again. All is forgotten.



Then he and the media can sidestep the corruption involving China.

If Biden broke the law then I will join you in criticizing him. Would you like to quote the specific statute that he violated?

If you are saying that it is not illegal but it is still wrong then show me where the corrupt intent was.

I can agree that it looks like a conflict of interest but why has it taken this long for anyone to point it out? Could it just be a coincidence that Biden is Trump's primary rival? Are you gonna tell me that has nothing to do with it?

More importantly, Haven't you heard? Conflict of interest is no longer any reason to be outraged in this country. The president does it all the time and it apparently is no big deal. He ordered Mueller fired more than once (order was ignored by saner people). He has military planes, the vice president, and other officials going out of their way to spend money at Trump resorts. His children are holding public offices. He has never separated himself from his business even though by law he is supposed to (my understanding). so why the frowny face? Its all ok if the president does it.

18 USC 208- conflicts of interest - Joe
15 USC 78d-1, et. seq - Hunter

[Tahuyaman]

Biden violated some government conflict of interest laws and Hunter violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

Absolutely.

Bill Clinton would probably be run out of it.

Bill Clinton would probably be run out of it.

Policy wise maybe, but his character is a perfect fit still.

Sam Nunn was a friend of my fathers. Wrote my college and AFA recommendations.
