Republican senators had an interesting take on Trump's call made on the White House lawn for China to investigate the Bidens. He wasn't serious ... that's not a real request ... he loves to bait the press. Only three appeared to take Trump at his word, including Ben Sasse who said:

Hold up: Americans don’t look to Chinese commies for the truth. If the Biden kid broke laws by selling his name to Beijing, that’s a matter for American courts, not communist tyrants running torture camps,” the Nebraska Republican said in a statement to the Omaha World-Herald.

What company hired him for $5ok a month?

You don't think sitting on the Board of AMTRAK counts as "experience" to sitting on other Boards of Directors?

Who put him on the Board of AMTRAK? Surely another businessman looking to gain access to governmental power, right?

Pro tip - you don't need to be a member of a drilling rig team to be qualified to sit on the Board of Directors for a natural gas company. Boards make strategic decisions, not day to day operations decisions, largely.

Quoted again for truth.

Not unusual for relatives of high profile politicians to have a leg up over unknown and possibly more qualified people.

Jenna Bush, daughter of George W. Works for NBC on the Today show. Bush cousin, Billy Bush also worked for NBC.

Ronald Reagan's son Ron works for MSNBC.

John Mccain's daughter, Megahan works for ABC.

Rudy Giuliani's son Andrew works in the White House for Trump as did Gov Mike Huckabee's daughter Sara.

Eric Trump's wife's brother was appointed chief of staff of the office of Energy policy and Systems Analysis.

Erik Prince, CEO of Blackwater's sister Betsy DeVos is Trump's Secretary of Education. Her husband was subsequently appointed to the FAA.

Who thinks theses people are the most qualified for their positions? In some cases it's who you know. Not what you know.
Hallelujah!

Thank God for Trump, forcing the spotlight onto Hunter Biden.
I only wish the Trump kids go under the same scrutiny.

It looks like Hunter Biden may have been paid much more than $50k a month by the corrupt Ukrainian Gas company. It seems that as much as $200K a month was flowing to Hunter Biden.

Trump had him up to $100,000 a month in a tweet yesterday. Now $200K? Wanna go for $300K tomorrow?
