Lol. He didn’t specify which president. Remember how Jared and Ivanka failed their background checks and had to “amend” their financial disclosures every time new evidence came into light?
Yep, that’s what I was thinking. Hunter’s bs is already out in the open, but a huge loan from the Saudi’s should be investigated for a son-in-law that worked in the white house.
this hunter biden shit is small potatoes. should he be subject to exactly the same legal standards and processes that any old fuckstick would have to endure? absolutely. should the prez be investigated if there’s any connection? sure. but, come on. don’t expect me to fall for this horseshit. that brandon guy is old as fuck but he’s doing a solid job and there’s no fucking chance i’m voting for a republican traitor.
Agreed. Dude should be treated the same as anyone else.
I’m pretty hard against applying disclosure laws and shit to family members merely for being related. You don’t get to choose your mom and dad. It seems unreasonable to force someone to follow standards of government office because they were born.
I dont see how this helps at all. They can release whatever financial info they want, and even if it is super clean, the right’s response will simply be “they lied on those documents.”
Hell, it didnt bother anyone voting for him that Trump never released his tax returns ahead of the election. If he is the nominee again he won’t release his newer tax returns. So at best this becomes a gesture that isnt going to sway a single vote and will only serve to have people nitpick and create more conspiracy theories.
This is a really dubious proposal. Congress can not enact a code of conduct on specific private citizens due to a family member’s position/job.
Hunter and his foibles will be the political punching of record for the duration.
