Investigate all signs of corruption regardless of party, politics, race, gender, religion, class or career.

I'm glad journalists keep referring to polls as they have been so accurate and reliable over the past several elections

[terrybroadway]

Yea but isn’t Hunter the smartest person he knows that means he is re tar ded

[johnoliver]

"your son, who had no ties to you? He's his friggin son!

[Korvilon]

900 people for that poll? That's a smaller sample size than my neighborhood. Not really a reliable metric at all.

If charges are forth coming for Hunter Biden, the Best thing the President can do is say: "Ok, let the Courts sort this out. I have every confidence my son will be cleared" and say no more. Move on to what other matters appropriate to a President. He should do (with his son) what he has done (so far) with Trump, which is to say very little at all on the legal affairs of either person.

really ? a "gun" charge .... in THIS country ??? come on now.

[kaibri]

If that's the case all the Trump kids should be in prison at this point. What they have done makes Hunter look like a saint

[maryveron]

I believe Jared should be charged before Hunter. Come on! 2 billion in blood money?!

[peteswafflemeyer]

If he's guilty, so be it.
I still don't know why I'm supposed to be obsessing over the legal status of some random private citizen.

[patcomerford]

I do hope Defendant trump will be prosecuted.

[paleocon]

We're living in an age where the Slime is rising to the top.

[volkerhaiges]

What is wrong with Americans? How in the world somebody can vote for Trump? That’s just nuts.

[inversionesincia]

That interview will go straight to history as a compelling example of bootlicking beyond all limits.

[cmeimgee]

"while there's no ties to you".... way to ask the tough questions!

[DaveK]

Don't know how he could face a gun charge. Guns are now freely available to anyone who wants one, no questions asked.

Dear Jonathan Lemire: Poll? Why would you not define such a poll? This is more, at this time in history, than "stirring the pot". Everyone likes attention. But at this time when against so much destruction through insurrection, through record greed for money and power, even in what was our most trusted institution - the Supreme Court, it is not just unfair to announce a loose poll at the nation, it adds to harm.

That's it: It's official: America is nuts ! In what sane world can Trump be ahead of Biden in any poll ? Un-effing-believable. Completely mad.

[recole]

How did drumpt do better? Someone tell me. I don't think they can because it's not true.

Not only is he one of the most inept leaders of our time, he most likely will go down as a bribe taker as well. Sad we can''t do better selecting our leaders.
