    If ya bothered to listen to the interview you may come away with a different perspective. I know 3 hours is a lot to ask in todays world though.

    It seems a little puffy as an interview, but to form opinions on things without watching it is probably the reason we are in such a mess as a species.

      Why? Hunter Biden is irrelevant. The only thing he has accomplished on his own merits is getting a law degree from Yale, and from that point on everything he has accomplished has come from having the right father. He is as useless as Eric Trump. And I am sure he has a compelling personal story of redemption, yay for him, but I am not gonna sit there and watch that for 3 hours.

      Yes, he has been the target of GOP lies and fuckery, but that doesn’t make him competent. You can argue that the GOP targeted him precisely because he is easily manipulated by people who wanted to get close to his dad, even if his dad was too smart to take the bait.

        It seems like they’re field testing him as a potential candidate. He’s very loyal to his father, and the establishment loves that

        They’re just determined to learn the wrong lesson. Right now they’re thinking “well, Mumdani won in an upset, how did that happen?”. And so now they’re like “well, maybe it’s the on the ground stuff” so they made Cuomo do street interviews. Then they’re like “ok, maybe it’s because he doesn’t talk like a normal politician”, and so they pulled out Hunter Biden, who is irrelevant, to see if he could get support by being very open and frank about drug use

        They’re so consultant brained they think the policies don’t matter at all, they’re looking for loyalty and trying to build a populist candidate

        It’s your choice to not hear the other side of a story.

        Vote blue no matter who right?
