Soon after Trump took office, one or two of his conversations with foreign leaders were leaked to the press to try to cause trouble for him. Had that ever happened to any previous President?

It would be well to remember that, in the end, Biden was a mere VP with no power
(just as Hillary was a mere SecState) who could do nothing without the prior authority of the sitting president.

So if the Chinese, Ukrainians, or Russians, are bribing someone with no power, they did so with the knowledge that some
of the bribe leaks back into the responsible person’s pockets. Or, more likely, another pot of money goes to the responsible party.

(Uranium One isn’t really Hillary’s deal, its Obama’s deal. Burisma isn’t really the Bidens' deal, its Obama’s deal.)

And China’s billions aren’t really buying Biden’s good graces (Kerry’s son was also involved...) its Obama’s good graces they were after.

I'll have more leverage after the election. Yes...I will tell Putin that.

Best "gotcha" ever.
