Does the Biden document controversy help or hurt the Republicans? [View all]

Naturally, it doesn't help Biden, on its face.

But, Republicans that look to make hay from the discovery of documents at Biden's house have a difficult tale to sell.

Republicans seem to believe that their base and their supporters know none of the details about the Trump documents case, or why the search warrant was given to the DOJ for Mar-a-Lago, or the types of documents that Trump had taken?

They seem to believe that they can make their supporters believe that the Biden case is much worse than the Trump case? Granted, they may have watched nothing but FOX and right -wing news but the Mar-a-Lago details are pretty much in the public domain.

For that reason, in my opinion, the more the Republicans attack Biden on the documents, the more it exposes their own hypocrisy.
