We're seeing it in real time. We keep hearing this time, this time, a witness will blow it all open. And then the witness testifies, and the republicans scurry to cover up what they said, because the testimony didn't support their hopes. How many times will that go on before people start wising up?
Either Biden is at once unaware and a fiendishly clever manipulator, or the republicans who are seeking to find a way to beat him are stuffed with prunes. I guess it could also be possible that they are naive and unaware.
I'm thinking "stuffed with prunes" is a more likely possibility,
Or the third possibility, just touched up but as you note you don't care. As much as the GOP goes out their way to make absurd claims, cooking text messages, and blocking testimony, they do so because it hurts their cause. Their cause? Because Trump said so, and they think it a win if a pair of impeached presidents are the voters choice.
I agree. We have now seen that there's nothing there. So the two possibilities are that either very many Republicans are so gullible that they actually believe that the 'evidence' is there somewhere and it will come to light at some point. Or they know very well it's smoke and mirrors but are too deeply committed to the lie that they can't back away from this dumpster fire without losing face.
Regardless whether Republicans have anything or not there are only two possibilities for Biden. He knew full well or he’s completely unaware. Neither one is good.
He knew that his son would make sure people knew that his dad was runing the country? Seriously? No, that wasn't a rhetorical question. Are you being serious when you say that Hunter liked to let people with whom he was doing business know that his dad was the man? Do you think that anyone doing business with Hunter was so unaware that they didn't know they were dealing directly with the presidents son? That Joe wasn't aware that everyone dealing with junior would know?
Read Hunter’s texts and emails if you want to know what was going on. You know what went on, everyone knows, some people are just so invested that they have to make excuses and deny the obvious
Or perhaps all these accusations are exactly as they appear - a lot of hot air that mysteriously evaporates as soon as there are any consequences to failing to tell the truth.
Predicting people are going to be skeptical of claims presented without evidence is hardly a feat.
Do the the people not know who Biden is? Why does Hunter need to tell people that his dad is a powerful important person? Do t they know?
Speaking of consequences for failing to tell the truth
Beats me. But it seems that that is part of what he being accused of.
Because there has been absolutely no evidence produced that there was. It's all innuendo. This is like the umpteen court cases regarding the stolen election. Hey yeah, the Kraken awakes! There is so much evidence you won't believe it! It is overwhelming! And then when the rubber hit the road and it was time to put up or shut up, we got...absolutely nothing.
Gee, you think that might have something to do with Russia attacking them?
There in 2 short sentences we have the situation summed up. 'There is evidence against Biden!' And then, soto voce: 'But whether it leads to something we can actually use...well, I'm not really sure. Guess we'll have to keep on waiting until...well, until something shows up'.
Perhaps a case where the shorthand talking points don't have much meaning outside of the right wing echo chamber? Some context might help others figure out which GOP fairy tale this is referencing.
Seems like the evidence against Biden must be really weak if all that can actually be provided is polling numbers.Speaking of consequences for failing to tell the truth
