It seems that the tables have turned in the ongoing debate of the legality surrounding Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden.
A recent fact check by Glenn Kessler of The Washington Post has revealed that Joe Biden made false claims during the 2020 presidential debates concerning his son’s business dealings with foreign entities.
Jake Tapper of CNN even conceded on air that “Trump was right…Biden was wrong.”
According to Kessler’s investigation, Hunter reported an income of nearly $2.4 million in 2017 and $2.2 million in 2018—the majority of which came from Chinese or Ukrainian interests.
This blatantly contradicts what then-candidate Joe Biden said during a heated 2020 debate against President Trump: “My son has not made money in terms of this thing, about, what are you talking about China?”
Even Tapper himself acknowledged that it was likely Joe was unaware of these dealings, saying he “might not have been told by Hunter,” but quickly noted that this lack knowledge is still a problem for the Democrats running for office this year.
What’s more is that these matters are still making their way through the legal system—which means it’s far from just political rhetoric like many on the Left would like us to believe.
When examining all these facts altogether, it becomes clear why Republicans will undoubtedly continue to press this issue further.
A closer look at the facts reveals how some of Hunter Biden’s business interests did overlap with his father’s official duties—something even “fact-checker” Kessler had to admit was true when he wrote up his analysis on discrepancies between Joe Biden’s debate claims and Hunter Biden’s court testimony.
It appears as if there may be more truth behind Republican accusations than Democrats would’ve liked us to believe.
