Because it isn't (so far) about the candidate.
“Because it isn’t (so far) about the candidate.”
Sure it is. All the stories about perverted Joe are now vastly more credible to the sleepers. Even if it is Hunter on camera. Hunter is tainted so badly that unless Joe disowned him a decade ago, Joe is tainted, too. Joe has shown and is showing incredibly bad judgement and vulnerability to all sorts of extortion.
Hey, I don’t think Hunter’s bad behavior is Joes bad behavior (he has his own issues) but Joe’s involvement in Hunter’s activities is suddenly orders of magnitude more believable and damning. Joe didn’t (allegedly) torture and rape little Chinese kids, but if Hunter did it marks Joe, and all the corruption suddenly becomes fact instead of rumor.
I wouldn’t assume that just because you are so jaded toward Hunter’s activities that everybody else is. They’re not. This is a big deal for a lot of people that were just drifting through. Now they are awake.
