Igor Bobic asked Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley about the Hunter Biden verdict:
“In our constitutional system, you gotta rely upon what the judges and juries decide. I’m sorry for the Biden family but people decide what justice is and you got to conclude that justice was done.”
As for whether that applies to the Trump verdict he said “it’s an entirely different thing. The Justice Department was doing everything they could to cover up his tax problems and his gun problems.”
What? Ok.
Sen. John Thune: “Hunter Biden’s not running for any political office. Donald Trump’s running for president. There are all kinds of different dynamics in two totally different cases,” he said. “The clear thing in the (Trump) New York case, I mean, there’s no argument. … This is politically motivated. The prosecutor ran, he got up there, got the job on the predicate of trying to prosecute the former president.”
Sen. Rick Scott: “First, in this case, this is existing law that people have been prosecuted before and they’ve been connected before, and they’ve been sentenced before,” he said. “In the case of (Donald) Trump, they’ve made up something brand new that nobody’s been prosecuted before. And it was complete political persecution.”
“No one’s ever been persecuted the way Trump was persecuted in New York. No one. No one in this country,” he said.
Poor Trump. He is the victim of a politically motivated witch hunt but Hunter Biden who has been mercilessly dogged by right wingers for years is just another case? Sure.
Meanwhile, here’s Mike Johnson also explaining why it’s “an entirely different thing:”
You see, Biden has weaponized the justice system against Trump by making them prosecute his son, a Democratic Senator and a Democratic Congressman to make himself look good and Trump look bad. He’ll sacrifice his party, his family and his country all for the sake of staying in power no matter what.
He is also a drooling old fool who can’rt string two words together but that’s why it’s so diabolical.
If you want to go deep on the Hunter Biden saga, there is only one journalist who has the complete picture and it’s, unsurprisingly, Marcy Wheeler. She’s followed the case in minute detail and what she’s concluded may surprise you.
