      Dumb is dumb, no matter how smart you try to sound. Have you not been paying attention? Do you watch CNN or something? You know nothing about the the Bidens. Or Joe for that matter.

      I’m not advocating its true, I don’t know if it is or not. I am presenting the argument that some Republicans make.

        They didn’t ask for arguments, they asked for examples of indictments. Why are you presenting, as an answer to that question, examples that you’re ignorant about?

            Difficult to produce indictments when your whole administration is covering for each other, right up to the petty amount of cocaine bags being left by uNkOwN ViSiToRs.

              It is difficult, and yet hundreds of Trump administration officials have been indicted for their obvious crimes.

              Look, I’m a progressive, so I don’t like Biden very much. I am not surprised that someone found drugs in the West Wing, either. I would bet if you turned out the pockets in the capitol building, you’d get enough coke to kill an elephant. Politicians and political activists are competitive, unscrupulous people, and I don’t condone cocaine abuse. But on the scale of accused crimes, somebody doing drugs in the bathroom pales in comparison to any of the scandalous crimes Trump officials have been convicted of.

                eh, that still reads very much like a propaganda take. Americans need to stop getting their news from fedoutlets and MSM. Even the progressives who were generally more independent minded and harder to sway are becoming incapable of seeing what’s actually going on.

                  I don’t think that progressives are unaware of the corruption, but I think neoliberals and MAGAts want to pretend that bOtH sIdEs SaMe to blur the choice, or discourage voting entirely. The character issues between Biden and Trump are not a tie. That’s not a defense of Biden, that’s a criticism of Trump.

                    You actually have no idea what you are talking. I know you think you do. But you don’t. You think because you tune into Fox news, and maybe even read a couple 4chan threads, googled QAnon conspiracis, that you understand what’s going on. But you actually don’t. And here’s how I know you don’t. You’re still focused on Trump. If you had any idea of what was really going on, Trump would be the least and last of our worries. And may in fact, be the thing we actually need. That I am an independent saying that, is probably one of the most bizarre and downright insensible things I would have accused myself of saying 2 years ago. I’ve gotten wiser to what’s going on since. And so should you.

                Incorrect isn’t a valid interpretation. They said scandals and indictments IN THE ADMINISTRATION. Republican nonsense is neither.

                  Biden is a part of his own administration. The accusation is that he colluded with is son in corruption.

                    Ah so the mask is off and now you’re openly advocating for republican nonsense. You have lost this point. Take the L, son.

        It’s actually incredibly strange to see the Biden corruption being treated like a question. People really need to get their head out of their ass. “Oh… Biden corruption? Say it isn’t so!!”
