There are different issues:

- the laptop. As you mention, they have admitted it was his laptop,

- the files. They may or may not be his, or all of them may not be his files, as there is no guarantee there was no tampering. And not admissible in court as there was a breach of chain custody.

- even in the case the files were his, these files don't show any criminal activity by Hunter. They also don't implicate Joe as he was not a shareholder of the JV project discussed in the email. The NYPost has kept a copy of the laptop content for 2 gears, and nothing else has come up yet.

 

"There were two supposed “smoking guns” about Joe Biden that conservatives touted in the materials. The first was an email the Post called a “blockbuster,” in which an executive at the Ukrainian gas company Burisma thanked Hunter for the “opportunity to meet your father” in 2015. If you’re steeped in Trumpworld lore, this was damning because of the theory that Biden had the corrupt prosecutor general of Ukraine fired to benefit Burisma, and Biden had said he knew nothing about Hunter’s Ukrainian work, but look, a meeting! (Apparently, it was a dinner at Cafe Milano that Hunter had organized, with about a dozen people.) This appears to amount to Vice President Biden seemingly going to one dinner.

The second involved a business venture that Hunter tried to set up with a Chinese energy tycoon in 2017 (after Joe Biden was no longer vice president). One email mentions that the equity split would include “10 held by H for the big guy ?” A former business partner of Hunter’s named Tony Bobulinski came forward to claim “the big guy” was Joe Biden. But a subsequent email from Hunter says his “Chairman” gave him “an emphatic no,” and a further email clarifies that the chairman is his dad."

Proof, now that's a hard one if you show leftwing media that's proof here.  But if you show rightwing media they take it off as it will never be the truth or proof here, this is sad.

All big Chinese firms are directly or indirectly controlled by the CCP. So how many U.S. companies have received money from the "CCP"?

I have rarely seen such a blatant demonstration of utter cluelessness as you have just revealed. For one thing, the key to modern warfare is advanced chips. Biden has seen to it that China denied access both to the machines that can make advanced chips, and to advanced chips themselves.

Well what do you expect when you are dealing with drongos like this......it is clear that the guy is Maga/trump through and through, so trying to have a reasoned discussion with him is impossible.

 

The very reason I have put him on "ignore".

He is a troll and has nothing but his own ideas and few if any facts and rarely any links to anything sensible.

But the thing is, he's so much fun to refute. Look at my last exchange with him. I don't think he came off well. And at least he actually produces some evidence to support his case even if it either doesn't support what he thinks it does or comes from sources that are easy to show are blatantly and dishonestly right wing. He's not like some who just post slogans.

FBI was given the laptop years ago. They sat on it. If there had been tampering we would have heard about it.   

 

Nice try.

You apologists and obfuscators trying to downplay the criminality of the Bidens do not have enough thumbs to plug the holes.

I think the truth is sadder. Dudleysquat actually believes that Hunter Biden's laptop contains proof of criminality or that the Bidens were acting in concert with the CCP. Come to think of it, I think he believes both.

"A year-long exploration of Hunter Biden’s laptop has yielded a 630-page report that its authors say document 459 violations of state and federal laws and regulations by President Joe Biden’s son and his business partners."

 I do enjoy mocking and haughty posts from people who STILL claim - even though it has been proven genuine countless times, and even recently admitted by HB when he moved to sue JPMcI - that the laptop is a hoax.
