It was a forgone conclusion that Biden would skate so my guess is that this was Hur’s way of giving the middle finger to Biden and the higher ups at DOJ. Seems to have been pretty effective, too.
I agree with you. Hur knew the likelihood of Biden ever going on trial was somewhere between zilch and nada. But he very skillfully delineated both Biden’s corruption and his diminished capacity. I think he did a brilliant job. It got even low-info people thinking and talking about things the media has been working feverishly to cover up.
