Hunter Biden Steps Down From Chinese Board in Bid to fight.
Newsmax ^ | Sunday, 13 October

Posted on 10/13/2019 5:40:09 AM PDT by mplc51

Hunter Biden is stepping down from the board of a Chinese-backed private equity company and promising to forego all foreign work if his father, former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden, is elected president in 2020.

After months of keeping a relatively low-profile as President Donald Trump leveled a barrage of unsubstantiated accusations of corruption at him, the younger Biden is publicly vowing to avoid any conflict of interest.

According to a statement released on his behalf by his lawyer George Mesires, Biden said he’ll resign at the end of the month from the management company of a private equity fund that’s backed by Chinese state-owned entities. He also pledged that he wouldn’t work for any foreign-owned companies or serve on their boards during a potential Biden administration. He reiterated that he never discussed his business activities with his father.

How did no-good, talentless lawyer Hunter Biden end up on the board of a Ukrainian gas company and get $ 1.5 billion in play money from the Chinese after his father’s visit there? well, how did Nancy Pelosi’s son make millions in the Ukraine? How did Nancy Pelosi become a multimillionaire on a maximum income of less than $ 200,000? How did Diane Feinstein’s husband make tens of millions of dollars on no-bid contracts from the second Iraq War, which was a crazy exercise to anyone with a knowledge of the area other than our “experts” at the CIA? It reminds me of one of my trips to Russia - a friend’s son who was an honors graduate of St. Petersburg University couldn’t get a job - she was infuriated when I showed her a copy of English language Russia Today with the headline of how the mayor’s son had become head of the city’s electric utility at the age of 23! Is it really that much different here with the Hunter Bidens and Dan Pelosis?

unsubstantiated accusations of corruption at him,

"Unsubstantiated" and "discredited" are often used to describe the allegations against Hunter Biden yet nobody on the Left will explain what skill set Hunter Biden possessed that warranted the financially lucrative positions he was given in Ukraine and China.

President Trump, in all of this, succeeded in informing Americans that when you are the adult child of a powerful American politician, there is a high-paying, do-nothing job waiting for you in a foreign company as tribute. It's all rotten to the core.

If anything it will be interpreted by honest Americans as an admission of guilt.

I would argue the hay is already mowed and sits in large round bales in Swiss banks that will not give up an American Vice President

Swiss is a metaphor for banks in many countries where money in very large quantities can be secretly stored

He has a great role model that talks from both sides of his mouth!

Also, is this suppose to exonerate him from what he has done! Both him and his father! Oh that is right they are RATS

According to a statement released on his behalf by his lawyer George Mesires “””

...Donald Trump leveled a barrage of unsubstantiated accusations of corruption at him, the younger Biden

That’s beautiful. The charge is unsubstantiated. yet, if Trump even talks about the issue with the Ukranian present, it’s an impeachable offense. Got it. It’s unsubstantiated and it’s illegal to substantiate.

It’s “unsubstantiated” that Hunter Biden was on boards of Ukranian and Chinese companies, raking in massive amounts of money? This from the media folks who pass made-up stuff about Trump as truth, every day.

Step back for just a minute:

A SON WHO NEVER DISCUSSED HIS MILLION DOLLAR BUSINESSES WITH HIS FATHER.

WOW, THAT’S SOME KIND OF IDIOT FATHER AND SON RELATIONSHIP.

One thing is for sure...they are not Italian.

We need to come up with a catch phrase similar to “white privilege” to use for the political elite’s children.
