Hawaiian Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 3 hours ago, Longwood50 said: The Democrats have the mantra that "no one is above the law' but the Hunter Biden saga shows they believe that to be a law for "thee and not for me" I know this, that if it was Trump who had the evidence on a laptop, the payments coming from Burisma, the money wired to him from the wife of a Russian mayor and deals linking millions in transactions with China he would be wearing an orange jump suit already. I agree that no one is above the law. When laws apply only to some and not to others it undermines society and makes it essentially lawless. The Hunter Biden story has seriously eroded public confidence that our regulatory agencies are not biased and undermines faith in them. The same is true of the Trump story where the opposite has occured and agencies are used as weapons. Nixon and others used the agencies to target people with tax probes etc. Herbert Hoover was known to keep secret dossiers on people to exert influence over them. The practice of not prosecuting some and punishing others by concocting charges has gone on for a long time. You see the same here in Thailand. It is a sad indictment of human behavior. Money lubricates the wheels of justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, the NYPost got a copy of the laptop 3 years ago, from Giuliani who got it 4 years ago. Are you believing that: - if there were any incriminating evidence on the laptop, the right-wing NYPost would not have already found it and published it? - If there were any incriminating evidence on the laptop, Giuliani, whose mission for Trump has been to get dirt on Biden, would not have disclosed it?

The key problem is not the presence of different point of views, it is about disagreeing on facts or just ignoring them (and that's a polite way to express it). For example, more than 50% of Republicans think the 2020 elections have been rigged and that Trump was the winner (including members of this forum).

Etaoin Shrdlu Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 I think there is another interesting twist to this issue: Does the second amendment allow the prohibition of ownership or possession of firearms simply due to a person's actions or activities for which he/she has not been convicted in a court of law? If the second amendment prevails, the question about drug use is unconstitutional and it becomes irrelevant how Hunter Biden answered it. This may go to the Supreme Court and put the gun-loving conservatives in a bind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would they have a different belief afterward? I don't claim to know if the shenanigans were sufficient to skew the results. I'm even open to any evidence that shows the reason Trump is so angry is because he didn't get his money's worth. But don't try to gaslight me into believing that there were no shenanigans. No late night vote counting, no ballot mules, no dead voters, no vacant lots receiving hundred of ballots.... Edit: I'd add that any long time Repub with presidential ambitions is probably beside himself pissed off that Trump has derailed his/her plans for 3 election cycles.

And you sunk even lower when you invoked Biden's brother and niece as some kind of evidence of moral turpitude on Joe Biden's part.
