Here’s Why Powerline Yammers On And On — About Hunter Biden: To Deflect From Trumpian Corruption — WHILE PREZNIT

Tangerine was absolutely the most corrupt preznit America has ever seen. Consider this, from CREW:

Donald Trump made up to $160 million from international business dealings while he was serving as president of the United States, according to an analysis of his tax returns by CREW.

Throughout his time in office, President Trump, his family and his Republican allies repeatedly assured the public that his refusal to divest from his businesses wouldn’t lead to any conflicts of interest.

Americans were promised that Trump would donate his salary, which he did, until maybe he didn’t—all while siphoning millions from taxpayers that more than offset his presidential pay. When it came to foreign conflicts of interest, Trump and his company pledged to pause foreign business. They did not….

In 2019, Trump stunned the US foreign policy establishment by pulling US troops out of northeast Syria. The decision had no obvious benefits to the US and was a bombshell reversal to allied Kurds, but it was a victory for Turkey, where Trump had done business for years. In China, Trump again shocked even his GOP allies when he pledged to help sanctioned Chinese company ZTE because, as he tweeted, there were “[t]oo many jobs in China lost,” despite warnings from US intelligence officials that the company’s products may be used by the Chinese government to spy on Americans….

Ms. Stauffer’s regular drumbeat of “what-about-ism” posts are all to deflect from the above, of course.

In any event, it is no wonder Tangerine wants to run again — it lets him make back all the graft he’s lost — in defending rape charges, and hush money payment cases and stolen top secret documents — on top of tax and bank fraud investigations.

Damn.
