Jon Stewart says that Hunter Biden's $1 MILLION position on the board of Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma was 'corruption - straight up off the bat'
2022-10-27
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] More and MORE left dressing RIGHT!
  • Jon Stewart discussed Hunter Biden's laptop on a new episode of his podcast

  • He said Hunter Biden's job with Burisma was 'corruption - straight up'

  • The Bidens face questions about how he was qualified to join the board of a Ukrainian energy company - other than being the then vice president's son

  • Hunter Biden's finances are the subject of a years long federal probe

#15  I think someone on this site found research that Obama cannot be VP because he might inherit the presidency and cannot serve a third term.

#14  AlanC, Obama cannot be ELECTED again but I don’t read that he can’t be appointed and confirmed…

#13  But then, aren't they all?

#12  I suppose Newsom can read from a teleprompter as well as any of them but he's carrying a helluva lotta baggage.

#11  They were pretty brutal on Ol'd Joe back when he was running against Hillary! 2016.

An example

*link is to daily show; short is Joe being the Joe we all know, but actually on prime time entertainment.

#9  Did Jon Stewart call the laptop story misinformation back in the day? Has he apologized for being so stupid and easily led back then?

#8  I would not be surprised to read that joe had a health issue on election night as the returns were coming in. Announcement timed to wet blanket any GOP victory and in hopes of getting some dancing on his grave quotes from the right (the way the Wellstone Funeral did on the left) that they can use against the GOP.

While all that is happening they replace Joe.

#7  He can always be Caliph. Or continue to be Ayatollah.

#6  ^ Bath House Barry's ego is the solid impediment to any notion of him taking the #2 slot.

#5  I don't believe that Barack could be VP since he is termlimited as Pres and the VP has to meet the qualifications for Pres.

But I could be wrong.

#4  1. Kamala -as Pres - will pick Newsome as her VP. Hence his meeting at the White House awhile back while Slow Joe was in Delaware. This will happen before next year to take advantage of their current majority in Congress

2. She will then be presented with a private opportunity to guide some meaningful enterprise that will burnisher her image (if possible) and resign the Presidency next year.

3. Newsome will be President and start the whole mess again.

Alternatively, Kamala will select Barack as VP, resign, and BO will have his 3rd term -or - Harris will pick Michele (despite her protests that she doesn't want the job) and we get the first woman of color president.

Think it's too improbable? I would have also a couple of years ago. Remember - this is the party that put up Fetterman - the love child of Lurch and Uncle Fester - into a debate.

#3  #2 The groundwork is underway for the replacement of Joe after the election.

...So much this. I'm guessing right after Christmas, there will be a very quiet, discreet meeting with the President and Dr. Jill explaining that there should be - can NOT be - any attempt at a second term. Should there be any resistance....well, there is a lot of information on Hunter out there, and it's bad enough. We'd hate to see any more come out.

You know, I just re-read that, and there's a problem - I don't think the Democratic party leadership is self-aware enough to do it that well. Even if they do convince the Bidens to back off, (musical cue please) "What do you do with a problem like Kamala?"

#1  Everyone in the Washington establishment has known about this for months, possibly years. Nothing will come of it.
