They just keep comin.

That would be an impeachable quid pro quo.

Besides, the trial is in New York State Court, not federal court. Biden cannot pardon him, only the New York governor.

Oh yeah, Trumps crimes got so normalized I forgot about that.

As for the second one, I'm talking about his federal crimes.

That is still an impeachable quid pro quo.

Not unless Trump does so without an offer from Biden. Biden could then see that Trump sees his errors and pardons him.

otherwise, you'd be right.

Trump’s federal trial won’t happen till after the election, with all that’s going on. For that matter, it might not even take place

The shoe could be on the other foot. Hunter, Jim, and Joe could all have their federal crimes pardoned by Trump if Biden drops out.

Jim who?
What crimes has Joe committed? None. Hunter? If he's committed crimes, let the chips fall where the jury finds him.

Just look at the difference between the case for hunter and the case for Joe.

Hunter has a paper trail.
Joe has some accusations born of revisionist history that have been debunked (as far as I can recall) 2017, and yet they keep sticking to that same accusation of "Quid pro-Joe." when he was acting on behalf of the US. Maybe not some select Republicans, and that's what they're trying to tout, but an actual agreement that had been made between Ukraine, US, other countries, and the IMF. It had nothing to do with Joe and his son.

19 family shell companies with no apparent business activity, but millions of dollars flowing into from foreign entities suggest money laundering at the least.
Inspite of hundreds of Suspicious Activity Reports filed by several banks, the DOJ turns a blind eye. If it were Trump, both DOJ and IRS would be far up his ass.

Hunter Biden has acknowledged receiving millions of dollars from overseas business endeavors, often into companies with multiple partners. The structure of those companies and the beneficiaries are opaque - perhaps deliberately. But it is not uncommon for business entities to use shell companies for strategic and tax-related reasons - which is legal. And none of the money received by Hunter Biden has been linked to Joe Biden himself.

There are strict rules for self-directed IRA’s paper which prohibit certain transactions with immediate family members (parents, siblings and children).
I don’t see much difference if immediate family members benefit from corruption.

Hunter Biden's business dealings have been scrutinized extensively, and no direct link to Joe Biden has been found to support allegations of corruption. Shell companies are legal and often used for legitimate business and tax purposes. The accusations against Joe Biden are based on debunked conspiracy theories and lack concrete evidence.

In contrast, the Trump administration faced numerous indictments and convictions of close associates on charges related to corruption, obstruction of justice, and other federal crimes. The level of scrutiny and legal action against Trump's inner circle, including his former campaign manager, personal lawyer, and others, highlights a stark difference in the nature and extent of the allegations. While Hunter Biden's activities have raised questions, the systemic and pervasive legal issues surrounding the Trump administration present a far more significant concern regarding ethics and legality in government. Not to mention that Trump had his family (sons, and daughter) employed at the White House while still holding all of his businesses instead of releasing them.

As of right now, Biden would get a slap on the wrist for making a mistake. This is about Trump, and not Biden. If anyone can *actually* find something that is worthy of a Grand Jury Indictment, I'd like to hear what they bring. Until then, I just dismiss it as more conspiracy theories.

Jim Biden, Joe’s brother.
