Hunter Biden Has Managed To Catastrophically Sabotage His Father’s Campaign

There is little question Hunter Biden’s proximity to power shaped the arc of his so-called “career”.  There is also little doubt his father Joe used the Office of the Vice President to advance and protect his son’s interests from old controversies surrounding his work for a bank, a lobbying firm, a hedge fund and his recent business dealings in Ukraine and China.

Hunter has struggled for decades with alcohol addiction and drug abuse.  He went through an acrimonious divorce from his first wife and fell into the arms of his deceased brother Beau’s widow.  Just this week we learned a DNA test revealed Hunter fathered a baby with another woman while he was dating the aforementioned widow.  What a slimeball.

Joe Biden’s staffers have spent recent months berating journalists for digging into the Burisma story.  Glenn Thrush and Kenneth P. Vogel of the New York Times reported, “Hunter Biden’s activities struck many of the officials in the Obama Administration working on Ukraine policy as an unnecessary distraction or worse.”

The Washington Post revealed another State Department official’s attempt to get Biden staffers to intervene with their boss. WaPo reported that George Kent, then a Deputy Assistant Secretary of State, “raised concerns in early 2015 about then–Vice President Joe Biden’s son serving on the board of a Ukrainian energy company.”

During Adam Schiff’s two-week shampeachment extravaganza, Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee repeatedly asked witnesses about Hunter Biden and his connection to the corrupt Ukrainian energy company.  Schiff shot down every effort by Republicans to call Biden’s son to testify before the Committee.

Whether you like Sen. Lindsey Graham or not, he has joined the House Republicans’ phalanx of attack in an effort to get to the bottom of the Biden corruption scandal by writing a letter to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.  In the letter he requested all documents and communications, call transcripts and/or summaries related to Joe Biden’s phone calls with former Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, all documents related to the raid on Burisma founder Mykola Zlochevsky’s home in February 2016 and the firing of Prosecutor General Yuriy Lutshenko.  Graham is also very interested in documents related to a meeting between Devon Archer who served on the board of Burisma and was convicted of conspiracy to commit securities fraud, Hunter Biden and Secretary of State John Kerry in March of 2016.

When Sleepy Joe got wind of this news, he was some more kind of pissed.  In an interview with CNN’s Don Lemon, Biden appeared to threaten the sitting senator saying, “Lindsey is about to go down in a way that I think he’s going to regret his whole life.  He knows me; he knows my son; he knows there’s nothing to this.”

The bumbling, stumbling septuagenarian talks a good game.  Remember when he fashioned the tall tale about bringing a chain to a knife fight against a tough, black gang member by the name of Corn Pop?

Biden recalled a hazy summer day in 1962 when he used his authority as a lifeguard to tell the leader of the Romans, the biggest black gang in Wilmington, DE to stop bouncing on the high diving board.

“Corn Pop was a bad dude, and he ran a bunch of bad boys,” Biden said in 2017. “If you used pomade in your hair, you had to wear a bathing cap, and so he was on the board, wouldn’t listen to me, I said, ‘Hey, Esther [Williams, the synchronized swimmer and movie star], you, off the board, I’ll come up and drag you off.’”

“Well, he came off and said, ‘I’ll meet you outside.’” Biden said recalling the event with cinematic vividness, including the fact that Corn Pop had patiently planted himself next to his car until his shift ended. “He was waiting there for me with three guys and straight razors. Not a joke,” he said.

And who can forget the bluster of Joey Plugs back in March 2018 at the University of Miami when he boasted, “If we were in high school, I’d take him [President Trump] behind the gym and beat the hell out of him.”

He later walked back his remark saying, “I shouldn’t have said what I said.”

Joe Biden’s god-awful case of hoof-and-mouth disease may have just put him deeper in the quicksand pit his son put in front of him.  The fallout is going to be delicious.
