Just like with Hillary's emails and Benghazi, the Repugs are never going to stop mentioning Hunter Biden's laptop and supposed corruption. This is their new Whitewater or Obama's birth certificate.
And they'll be countless investigations if the GQP takes back the House.
And the mainstream media will cover the story to appease Fox News. And the public will continue to think their has to be something to the story since it keeps showing up in the news.
We've all seen this movie before. I really hope we can somehow keep Congress this November or we're in for a long 2 years of Huntergate.

(4,846 posts)When they do the hearings, people paid attention. When there is a real insurrection and we do investigations on them, people turn off and somehow pretend it's a non-issue.

(768 posts)His goal is to flood the news with so much BS the media and public doesn't know what to believe anymore. Most of the public just give up and stop following the news.
But headlines like "Hunter Biden's laptop..." catch their attention.

(9,500 posts)Even before 2016. I would say I saw this back in WI in 2010, although at that time it was mostly the "issue advocacy groups" flooding the airwaves with B.S.
All they have to do is keep their base ginned up and democratic-leaning voters may be turned off from voting as the media plays to the tune of "both sides".

(1,664 posts)...the guy that's actually guilty of what they're trying to smear hunter with...using his family political connections to enrich himself.
Yet again...it's ALWAYS projection on their part.

(768 posts)The GOP = Gaslighting, Obstruction and Projection.
Calling Biden and his son corrupt is classic projection by Trump, Jared and Fox News.

(33,643 posts)At least with Benghazi there was, you know ... dead Americans.
But this? Only far-right wackos even knows WTF it's (supposedly) about, for everyone else ... why they should care?
Which is to say, I don't think it'll impact any elections.
I do understand the general point though, and agree

(63,912 posts)there is this evil Democrat cabal that is at work in secret to keep the laptop from being properly examined. Then ask "Are they afraid of what they'll find?"
It's one of those unanswerable questions. I would reply "I dunno. Why don't you do an investigation into it yourself?"
