Frank Biden, the youngest brother of former Vice President Joe Biden, saw his business interests benefit from millions of dollars in taxpayer loans to Caribbean nations during the Obama years.

I feel certain that any ordinary American could have gotten the exact same deal if she or he had filled out the proper paperwork and submitted an application to the appropriate agency, which was probably the Bureau Of Massive Loans To Unqualified Individuals or some such.

Well, his son got paid millions for no experience. Now his brother got paid millions for no experience. Why is Joe running for President? Stands to reason, he has no experience (kind of like his last boss, the Great Pretender).
