...Candidate for president in 2020. I'm not working for you. Don't be such a horse's ass....
said the story of his son Hunter using the family name to make business deals overseas is a "desperate campaign to smear me and my family," as an aide tried to stop the TV interview.
Though Biden had called a 'lid' on press appearances through Thursday, on Wednesday he accepted a remote interview with WISN-12, an ABC affiliate in Milwaukee. WISN news hound Adrienne Pedersen asked the candidate about Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson, the Republican chair of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, accusing Hunter Biden of profiting off his father’s position as vice-president in the B.O. regime.
"This is the same garbage that Rudy Giuliani, Trump's henchman..." Biden replied, trailing off. "It's the last-ditch effort in this desperate campaign to smear me and my family."
"Even the man who served with him on that committee, the former nominee for the Republican Party, said there's no basis to this," Biden added, forgetting once again the name of Willard

Pierre Delecto
...former governor of Massachussetts, the Publican nominee for president in 2012, now Senator from Utah. He is the son of the former governor of Michigan, George Romney, who himself ran for president after saving American Motors from failure, though not permanently. Romney has a record as a successful businessman, heading Bain Capital, and he rescued the 2002 Winter Olympics from the midst of bribery and mismanagement scandals. He is currently a trans Republican and a member in good standing of the Never Trump Party, attempting to assume the mantle of the late John McCain...

"The vast majority of the intelligence people have come out and said there's no basis at all," the Democrat continued. "Ron should be ashamed of himself."
The GOP War Room somehow obtained the unedited tape of the interview, showing a Biden aide trying to stop Pedersen before she asked the question, telling her "Adrienne, that’s all the time we have, I’m so sorry."
Johnson led the committee investigation into Hunter Biden’s business dealings, including joint ventures in China and service on the board of the Ukrainian gas company Burisma, releasing a report last month that outlined "millions of dollars in questionable financial transactions" but stopping short of accusing the VP of taking foreign bribes through his son.
The senator’s statement Pedersen was referencing actually focused on the media blackout on stories involving the younger Biden’s business ventures overseas, including the social media censorship of the New York Post that first broke the story about Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop at a Delaware repair shop.
