If this were one of the Trump kids, liberals would be going hoarse screaming about it.
It was the most obviously thing in the world that Hunter being on the Burisma board was naked corruption.
I have had the displeasure of working with corporate boards before. I can tell you that these positions are highly coveted not just for the prestige, but for the easy money. You basically get paid well into 6 figures to attend 4 quarterly meetings per year and pretend to hold the CEO accountable.
Given how easy the money is, these board positions are incredibly difficult to get. Most companies (really, their shareholders but I’m keeping it simple) do actually bother to get people who are capable by bourgeois capitalist standards. So an oil and gas company will typically put former top industry executives, scientists, lawyers, etc on their boards.
The idea that some coked-up bro from America with no real accomplishments or experience in that industry would be granted that highly compensated of a board position on his own merits strains credulity. It would be like if Trump nominated Jared Kusher to a federal judgeship. There is no rationale in the realm of possibility other than they just hired the VP’s son for reasons just like this. The fact that libs deny this shows just how unserious they are.

Yes this is the only reason some Republicans are decent on the Ukraine issue. Pure partisan self interest
The more you dig into that story the more wild it gets to be honest, like the whole thing where Biden blackmailed Ukraine to fire the prosecutor that was looking into Burisma. The whole thing is just such an obvious grift, and now the same family just happens to oversee the war with Russia. Seems like a bit of a conflict of interest there if you ask me.

Or language. Unless Hunter is hiding a secret degree in Ukrainian literature.

This exchange is typical…
I wonder if the President will pardon his son before he leaves office (maybe the last day).
>> He fucking should
The quote tags aren’t working correctly.
From another thread…
Is Hunter Biden President of the United States? I didn’t think so.
