“Did he also mention to me in passing the corruption related to the D.N.C. server?” Mr. Mulvaney said, referring to Mr. Trump. “Absolutely. No question about that.” He added, “That’s why we held up the money.”
Trying to make an issue about the Biden family and Ukrainian corruption? Trump’s 2016 campaign chair (Paul Manafort) is currently rotting in jail because of his many years of direct involvement in Ukrainian corruption!
Hunter Biden was a private citizen hired by a PRIVATE SECTOR CORPORATION.
Eric and Don Jr made deals directly with FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS (not private businesses) while Daddy was president.
Ivanka and Jared HAD OFFICIAL WHITE HOUSE POSITIONS while Ivanka negotiated special favored trade and trademark deals with China and Jared convinced Qatar to prop up his failing 666 Fifth Avenue property, while they were officials in Daddy’s White House. (And evangelicals don’t catch the symbolism of the address or the brazenness of the corruption? Are they gullible and naïve or complicit?)
And don’t get me started on the lengthy list of Trump’s own direct EMOLUMENT-VIOLATING international deals for profit.
The hypocrisy astounds.
Trump consistently uses the Joseph Goebbels playbook: accuse others of what you are most guilty of (but then again, his closest advisor, Stephen Miller, is the reincarnation of Goebbels).
Disclaimer: Joe Biden is not my preferred candidate in the Democratic primary, and it would be easy to look the other way while an outsider takes pot shots, but the fact is that the charges are groundless, have been repeatedly discredited by Ukrainian prosecutors (no matter how many papers Rudy Giuliani waives on the Sunday morning talk shows), and we Democrats can select a nominee without having to resort to Republicanesque lies and smears.
I’m thinking that the whole pack of Über-rightwing cartoonists will be totally ignoring what’s going on around the Dumpster Fire, at least until Fox makes up its mind to cut their losses and deny that they ever supported this misbegotten error.
(cut-n-pasted from my comment on another right-wing toon)
Meanwhile the entire trump administration has become totally dedicated to supporting Putin’s goals while enriching themselves in a glut of corruption. But by all means, let’s focus on vague innuendo of Biden instead.
I’m sorry, are you trying to make a point? Are you suggesting that either Biden did anything illegal or unethical? Out with it then, and not just fake assertions but proof. Show that Biden force behind firing that prosecutor since his agreeing with the entire administration not to mention every European ally government seems to be the whole crime he committed. Show proof that his actions didn’t, in fact, harm Hunter Biden’s company.
Steve Kelly Works for the Pittsburgh Post Gazette. He was hired when Bob Rogers was let go because he was highlighting the actual Crimes that Trump is committing, most notably on immigration.
Here he is Demonstrating Two Propagandist tools.
Tool 1 Goebbels Big Lie theory. If you tell the big Lie often enough the people will begin to believe it.
Tool 2 Moral Relativism. ( Also Call “What-About”) The Idea that if Joe Biden is even a bit Tainted, That justifies all of the Crimes and offenses of his adversary. That All questionable actions are equal. This was the Tool that the right wing used successfully against Hillary. That her handling of here email server was wrong and therefore any transgression, no matter how morally reprehensible, that Trump committed was somehow negated by her questionable actions.
Tool 3 is Steve Kelly Paid by the Right wing to convince you there is nothing wrong with Trump’s actions.
Last names and connections matter.. A lot of hypocrisy on display here.. it is doubtful if “any” of the folk who are making these accusations got “their” jobs/benefits/perks on merit alone.
OK, guys. What do you expect of Kelley? he still shows his signature cartoon of Hillery with a Pinocchio nose after his man Trump told over 4000 lies in his first two years of “presidency”.

Question: Even if Joe Biden did what he was accused of by Donald, does that excuse what Donald did?
