You just don’t get it, do you?

How, exactly, should Joe Biden prove he wasn’t involved, in something he wasn’t involved in?

Thats why the onus is on the accusers to prove it. Thats why we have a justice system that works on the idea that one is presumed innocent until proven guilty.

And all they have is an email that refers to “the big guy”, and everyone baselessly assumes that it’s Joe because it fits their agenda. Maybe H is heroin and the big guy is their supplier. Maybe H is Hillary Clinton and the big guy is Bill. Maybe H is Halliburton and the big-guy is Dick Cheney. Maybe it refers to a portion of the project that is classified, and legally it cannot be revealed who “the big guy” is. Maybe she’s born with it. Maybe it’s Maybelline.

The point is, you’ve managed to take one cryptic sentence, sent by someone other than a Biden, completely out of context, and spun it as a conspiracy against a Biden that we are still arguing about 5 years later. Bravo.

And now, the only thing that would satisfy you is to prove a negative.

By getting his son to explain who the big guy was and what he was supposed to do for 10% of the deal.

This is the court of public opinion, not law. Joe will be guilty of corruption in many voters minds. Granted someone is not going to vote for Trump because they think Biden is corrupt, but it does eat away at trust in the Democrats.

Not baseless. But we've covered that.

Maybe H is heroin

Maybe H is Hillary Clinton

Maybe H is Halliburton

Maybe Gillar should say who H is (Hunter obviously), who the big guy is and what they did. That would let Joe off the hook. That's the only solution to the speculation.

The point is that it still hasn't been addressed 5 years later, and the FBI mislead everyone into calling it Russian Propaganda.

Nope. Just a reasonable explanation from the business group and a full FBI investigation.
