All our local affiliate news have given both Hunter Jr and Sr(who surfaced screaming witch hunt Tues night) the majority of airtime to
deliver their victim scenario. I have yet to hear any of them state outright that it is The Trump Justice Dept bringing the charges through a Trump appointed Federal Attorney. Or to ennumerate the charges many of which scammed wounded warriors, boys and girls clubs...really repulsive stuff to San Diego voters...even in Hunters's inland district.

Have you seen the latest? Darrell Issa is somehow trying to insert himself as the solution candidate (I don't know how since the ballot cannot be altered) Good old,unimagineably rich Darrell...hmmm, also a rabid Trumper. Can't help but wonder if Issa, having been forced into retirement by a rapidly purpling district adjacent to Hunter's, and knowing Hunter's facing an inevitably ironclad trial.....like maybe somebody should tell all the Hunter voters that their Deep State Phone Call is probably coming from inside their own House.
heh,heh
