They don’t actually care about Hunter or even the charges; heck they probably don’t even agree with the gun background check law he broke. They just want a way to go after Biden and take him down. They want something to make him unpopular and rally the rest of the normal public behind so they can get him to lose. Once he’s out of the picture they can have their way on Abortion or Immigration or whatever their single issue voting topic is.
It's their only avenue to 'hurt' Biden, also it's the old 'I'll do to you what you do to me shit, because they're all getting charged with shit left right and centre, they're gonna do it to them, just for the fuck of it.
Because Biden is the political equivalent of a turkey sandwich. Boring, bland, nobody's favorite, hard to criticize, hard to love, forgettable. Deflecting blame off the last guy is all they got and it's pathetic how hard they're reaching.
They have to work with what they have. Which isn't much.
Nobody fucking cares.
I, for one, am never voting for Hunter Biden again.
Although I heard a rumor that his dad might be better then trump. Although it was just a rumor. Not sure if it was accurate.
Something something drain the swamp. Trump drained the swamp by appointing his kids and his friends kids White House positions and forcing everyone to use his hotels.
Don’t even get me started how Fauci is corrupt!

There is no logic in the Republican Party
It's really amazing how much these people hate doctors and healthcare. Losing their shot over Obamacare and then going as far as death threats to fauci for daring to suggest you wear a mask get vaccinated and wash your fucking hands. The horror.
It’s become a party of resentment. Doctors tell them they’re wrong so they resent doctors. Colleges tell them that their ideas are historically inaccurate and broken so they resent colleges. Artists and celebrities criticize their ideas and politicians so they resent artists and celebrities. Athletes don’t go along with their beliefs so they resent athletes. When Trump won, they had lost multiple presidential elections in a row and he promised that he’d get even with all those people. He harassed athletes and celebrities and cut funding to colleges and doctors, all because of resentment.
GOP is nothing but the party of grievances. They didn’t even discuss policy at the last debate.
