Why isn't the media talking about that? I suppose they are on Trump corruption overload. Its become the new normal at least for republicans and their president.

3. Democrats have to say this loud and often. Whenever Biden's son is mentioned.

This is how HRC got railroaded. Dems didn't push back. All Dems need to stick together, even the candidates. They don't have to endorse Joe Biden, just point out the hypocrisy of the media, Trump and the Republicans when it comes to Trump's personal dealing, the nepotism in the WH and government departments and how Trump's family and Trump himself are benefitting off his presidency.

4. Investigate Hunter Biden?

Right after the Kushners are investigated, and that will be a long investigation. How many trademarks did Ivanka get, because of her daddy's position? Are HER imports from overseas subject to tariffs? For all we know, she could be importing drugs. We need to find out.

15. We'd better get used to the Bidens being brought up

because it will be the centerpiece of the Trump defense in the Senate. R's will make the trial all about Biden, as if he was the one facing charges. They will be allowed to do it.

The trial will get more attention from the general public.than the hearings did becsuse that's the way people are.

Dems have the facts on Burisma, Biden, and the firing of the Ukrainian prosecutor general. They will present them clearly, not as a defensive move, but as offense to crush the R's attempts to blur the facts. R's will subpoena Biden. If he has to testify, the prosecution will have documentation and maybe testimony from others to back up their offense against R spin. At least I hope they will do that because it destroys the Trump defense.

So we will hear more about Biden as this goes to trial. They will try to put Biden on trial. The prosecution will throw it back in their faces.

If they don't, we will have to listen to repubs shouting and screaming about it constantly.

19. Hunter Biden doesn't deserve what's happening to him

but he was not smart about his career choices thus leaving himself (and his dad) open to charges of "selling access" or "trading on the family name". He tried to get out in front of this by giving a long interview to The New Yorker for a feature story. After having read it, I felt more sorry for him than anything as his life is more complicated than one might expect.
