It's interesting that the Republicans are bringing up the Hunter/Burisma thing now,

rather that waiting until he gets the nomination. This tells me that they are not sure that it would kill his candidacy. They are trying to use it to keep him from getting the nomination. I don't think that it will work. Democrats won't believe it. The information is coming from former corrupt prosecutors and pro Russian politicians,who are apparently being bought off by Dimitri Firtash, the Russian oligarch
who is awaiting extradition from Vienna. If Rudy ends up getting indicted, I think that blows the whole thing up.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

The more they bang this drum in service of Der Pumpkinfuhrer, the more they hurt themselves amongst independents -- who are pretty sick of Trump and Repukes' fealty to him.

Giuliani was supposed to have the goods on the Biden's. They don't have squat they can use. I bet they keep bringing it up, spreading the Q crap, but never showing any evidence. They think this will be like something bad hanging over Bidens head, but only the crackpots believe any of it.

... is the only thing that pops into people's minds when they hear "Hunter Biden/Burisma" is Trump's impeachment.

Instead of taking the "let's forget that happened and move on" tack, they're just reminding everyone of what got Trump impeached in the first place - not exactly a winning strategy, IMO.
