Lets invert your argument. What would be required to show Joe Biden was influenced?
We have evidence showing his family received millions in payment. We have proof beyond any doubts that money was illicit and not whatsoever earned, because it was paid to his crackhead son for a no-show job and given to his brother and family-in-law who had no relation to the dealings. We have abundant evidence the same people who paid Joe Biden were corrupt and known for bribery, including Russian oligarchs and Chinese power brokers who got arrested and disappeared on charges of bribery. We have public proof that Joe Biden directly intervened to eliminate a prosecutor who was digging into Burisma and its oligarch owner, ending the criminal proceedings against him. We have the various actors involved in the saga on email chains talking to each other about how the Bidens were being paid for their influence and Hunter was complaining very loudly and frequently that Joe Biden was taking half his bribe money.
What possible more evidence do you need? Does Joe Biden have to grow a snidely whiplash mustache and fly Hunter to Ukraine with a big sack with a dollar sign on it and have an oligarch order his enslaved orphan laborers to fill it with blood diamonds?
Because that's eerily close to what actually happened in another incident, in which a chinese businessman from a bribery ring handed Hunter Biden a 3.16-carat 9.34-9.39x5.81 mm excellent grade VS2 clarity F color Diamond.
Because of course they did, because they're cartoon characters
Ooh man lotta loaded language here because you know you don't have an argument.
What would be required? Something that shows he changed how he would have behaved in favor of Russia. But in fact we have the opposite. We have Biden being extremely hard on Russia.
"His family" is a standard you exclusively apply to Joe and vehemently don't apply to Trump. Let's take note of that.
Paying money to somebody connected is not illicit. That's ostensibly how a lot of America's rich families stay very rich. Just straight up connections.
You have one transfer with no evidence it went to Joe. We know for a fact that the Burisma prosecutor was not a corrupt action, it was the will of the international community as a whole because he was known for corruption.
If Joe is taking half the bribe money you should be able to show some kind of transfer where Joe receives the money.
Meanwhile we have Trump's kid directly receiving 2 billion dollars for his fund in exchange for a specific Saudi arms deal after he worked directly with their government and direct intervention by the Saudi crown prince to override the decision of his financial advisors who had previously deemed it a bad investment.
So until you start applying even 1% of the standard to Trump that you do to Biden, there is no reason to take anything you say seriously. It's abundantly clear you are just looking for any way to attack Biden.
