What benefit did Joe Biden receive or hope to receive from his son getting that job? Because we all know that political dirt was what Trump was personally looking for in his quid pro quo.HouseDivided wrote: ↑Tue Dec 31, 2019 3:13 pmIf you really believe that Biden didn't get Hunter a job through the same quid pro quo avenues you are decrying President Trump allegedly using, then we are going to disagree, I'm afraid.twocoach wrote: ↑Tue Dec 31, 2019 11:56 am"It"? Again, you're comparing a benefit you described as a Dad possibly feeling paternal pride about his son having a job that he may have only gotten due to who his father is to a President holding up desperately needed Congressional funds to another nation so he can have a few sound bites for his reeelection campaign IF Joe Biden wins the Dem nomination.HouseDivided wrote: ↑Tue Dec 31, 2019 11:19 am
So, it's okay if it's for the right reasons? You really want to go with that line of reasoning?
The two are not even in the same stratosphere, let alone close enough to blob them into an "it's only OK if..." comparison. That's an Illy level faulty leap of logic.
And where is the proof that Joe Biden had any sort of involvement in his son receiving that job in the first place? I have not seen anything that stated that he was directly involved in Hunter procuring that job other than that he was the Vice President and that hiring the Vice President's son might at some point give the company some sort of "in" if they needed it.
So what am I missing? Because you seem to have all sorts of additional information that I haven't seen.
