The Biden Crime Family (a.k.a. "Biden is an honest guy"

Have fun with that.

There are several distinct differences. First, there is simply no hard evidence that Joe Biden did anything untoward, yet a NY court has adjudicated that Trump has been a persistent business fraud for years (and perfectly willing to continue his fraudulent practices even while President). And secondly, the emoluments clause does not make exceptions for the income of corrupt businessmen (and the emoluments clause did not apply to Biden when he was out of government). Indeed, a great deal of Trump's emoluments derived from properties (e.g., the DC Trump hotel) acquired through fraudulent business practices.

And now that we find out that Trump enriched himself by ~$8 million in foreign money while president (prohibited by the Constitution without specific Congressional consent) and that this only represents the first 2 years of his presidency, 4 of his 500 business entities and 20 of 191 nations. IOW, this $8 million is the tip of the iceberg, yet your boy, Comer Pyle, deliberately halted any investigation into it (or Kushner's $2 billion).

In contrast, Hunter Biden (and by extension Joe Biden) has been thoroughly investigated by DOJ for 5 years (with nary a whimper of "witch hunt" or accusations of weaponization by Trump's DOJ (who initiated the investigation and had a record of weaponization (the Durham investigation)) with no criminal behavior from Joe Biden alleged (for that matter, Comer hasn't even alleged any specific criminal behavior by Joe Biden).

You are such a credulous MAGAMoron that you're simply incapable of realizing that Comer's folly is nothing other than a dishonest, ham-handed attempt to create some Biden equivalency to Trump's rampant criminality. Abe Lincoln (and P.T. Barnum) were right about people like you - you can indeed fool some of the people all of the time.

Laughable to even mention morals where Donny and family are involved. They clearly have none, nor, clearly, do you.

Sons profiting off the name and government position of their father? Sounds oddly familiar except this time there is hard evidence.

Oh, and by the way, as indicated in the link I posted earlier, Trump never tried to hide or lie about the fact that he was making money from international sources. He was quite up front about it.

That contrasts pretty harshly with Biden who stated that he was never involved in his son's business, and which he has slowly walked back in baby steps after testimony, photos and other documentation has created a quite different picture.

Do you have any proof where Hunter Biden profited from his father's presidency, just a link or two, not your opinions. Or, why is Comer in a permanent state of indigestion?

‘We Have Receipts!’ House Rep Gloats Over Trump Foreign Payments on Morning Joe — Slams Trump’s Corruption

https://www.mediaite.com/tv/we-have-...ps-corruption/

“Let’s be just clear. There is zero evidence, of course, as we know, that links present Biden with any wrongdoing. Republicans cannot come up with any information or any sort of wrongdoing,” Garcia replied. “And they are clearly projecting. I mean, this report shows where the real grift and corruption and illegal activity is.”

“We have receipts, we have bank records, we have accounting. It’s all there laid out in the report. And there is much more that has yet to be uncovered,” he added. “And so that Republicans it’s incredible to see the hypocrisy that the House Republicans, that James Comer, that the new speaker, are trying are trying to put together with this impeachment scam that they have put together, essentially to try to attack the Biden family.”

“But President Biden has no business interests as he serves as president,” he added. “Donald Trump had a complex web of ways of pulling in money from foreign governments to enrich himself and his family. And so we’re going to make that contrast. Clearly, Republicans want to just throw whatever they can at the wall.”

When the House is once again under Dem leadership, Donny will finally get what’s due.
