And do you not see how those sort of investigations failing to turn up anything is precisely what makes people think the entire system is brokenly corrupt? You can't in good faith argue you think he was in that position on merit. He was (and is) a drug addict with no relevant skills, and he's making millions working on the board of directors for a Ukrainian gas company?

You can, for instance, make your same argument about Dick Cheney and his relations with Halliburton which were equally obviously corrupt. Yet lo and behold, plenty of showy investigations, and the political establishment finds that the political establishment did nothing wrong, well at least nothing deserving of anything worse than a few very gentle taps on the wrist.

Somehow, the "Everything is Corrupt" folks always end up supporting the most corrupt president in our history.

Maybe you have to say "everything is corrupt" in order to not be morally required to condemn the current administration.

Yes, other administrations were corrupt, going back at least to Andrew Jackson. No, from what I can tell, they weren't this corrupt (with the possible exception of Grant).

What was Hunter Bidens official job and what corrupt official acts did he commit? Some private third party hires some washed up relative of someone in power is looking decidedly quaint if you look at the brazenness and dimensions of the current administration.

I'm completely lost on what your position is here. You think the fishing expedition against the Bidens was actually kinda good but the Republicans were secretly positioning to only charge him with a gun-form thing that almost no one gets charged for standalone and for taxes that he paid back?

What crime did you want him found guilty of exactly?

I can in good faith completely reject your comments, which are totally lacking in good faith.
