    The original claim in 2020 was that the laptop contained emails that showed corrupt deals being made between (then vice president) Joe Biden and Ukrainian officials to protect his son’s business interests in a Ukrainian gas company.

    This claim was put forward after Trump had been impeached for making corrupt deals with Ukrainian officials. Republicans wanted to impeach Joe Biden for the same thing. Unfortunately, the laptop doesn’t contain anything that could be seen as evidence of corruption.

    It does have dick pics and drug stuff on it though, and it’s illegal to own guns and drugs at the same time. Since Hunter owns guns, he probably broke that law. A bit of a step down from Joe Biden being corrupt.

      Yes the laptop does not contain communication between Hunter and Joe discussing corrupt deals. It does contain details of Hunter making corrupt deals that Hunter claims Joe was party to. Joe’s knowledge of those deals would need to be corroborated by some other source. It’s not just dick and drug pics on the laptop.

          I don’t need to see the laptop my self it has been authenticated and contents given to the NY Post who published them. Hunter himself confirmed the emails to be authentic under oath.

            Hahahaha that article doesn’t have proof of shit.

            It has excerpts of text we are told came from an email from hunter, and they’re supposing the language used is code for Joe.

            You’ve gotta have something more substantial than this, surely?

            I love that the conservative position has evolved from “but her emails” to “but his emails” and you’re still no closer to proving anything but you’re still so sure.

              Your reading comprehension is terrible, I’m guessing 5th or 6th grade level. I never made the claim the emails on Hunter’s laptop proved Joe was party to the corrupt deals. Litterly the 1st sentence of my original post acknowledges so.

              Yes the laptop does not contain communication between Hunter and Joe discussing corrupt deals.

                Maybe you and your reading comprehension. That comment was a response to your last comment, which contained an article link which did make that argument.

                Next time you try to provide a source make sure you understand what it says, and call out the relevant parts lol.

                  Expecting you to understand that big long article was my fault I’ll move a little slower so you don’t get confused.

                  What exactly in my original statement are you disputing? When you provide this I will copy the text that supports my statement for you so you don’t have to read that big scary article.

                    Oh I’ve provided that already. Your original comment doesn’t work until you can provide proof that “evidence” came off of Hunter’s laptop.

                    Even if it has, I don’t really care because Hunter isn’t running for election, his father is.

                    If you’re trying to implicate Joe you need to provide evidence of that, which you’ve failed to do.

          The dipshits in congress have been trying for almost a year and a half to find anything to pin on Biden and have failed spectacularly. The laptop might have incriminating stuff about Hunter, but Joe Biden is famously a different person, and is clean.

          But hey, if you want to be outraged at the blatant corruption displayed by Trumps daughter and son in law as they held official positions in the federal government, something that Hunter never has, then we can at least pretend to care about the idiotic laptop. Oh yeah and also the convicted felon and rapist Donald Trump himself.

          But you won’t. So it’s fine.

              Who molested whose daughter?

              Who took bribes?

              Cite.

              I remember 45 calling his daughter a piece of ass. And you’re still going to vote for him.
