Former Vice President Joe Biden claimed in a new interview that when his son Hunter was a board member of Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings while he was in office, no one informed him that it could pose a problem.
Biden insisted again that Hunter did nothing wrong, but this time appeared to fault his staff for not cluing him in that there could be concerns about his son's involvement with the foreign company that had been under investigation while Biden was in office and dealing with Ukraine policy.

Joe took money from Burisma too. What's he got to say about that?

Joe Biden is a child and thinks he can get away with anything by blaming others. In my personal opinion Democrats at this point are vindictive,hate-filled and just plain evil. They must be kept out of majority rule in any branch of the Congress for a very long time. Take the never-Trumpers with you.

Next up will be 'The devil made me do it'. Blaming staff when running for President is probably a losing argument.

I guess that's just how democrats do business in CT. Maybe some more investigations within CT are in order to see who else there thinks laundering taxpayer money back to politicians through foreign aid is just fine.

I guess the dollar signs got in Joe's eyes so that he couldn't see the obviously conflict of interest. Come on man.

I believe Joe 30330.
He didn't even know he had a son until he read it in the newspapers.
Leave Joe alone!

Poor joe, just a hepwess widdle ol man.
The question is not “how stupid does he think we are?” but rather “how stupid is joe to think his nonsense will fool anybody?”
I guess he’s guilty and that’s the best he’s got.

Let’s translate Joe’s response from Malarkey to English: “I didn’t think we’d get caught.”

Is it not amazing that someone who graduated from Law School and has been an elected politician for 50 continuous years has not been able to figure out what "might look bad"; what a Conflict of Interest might be, what a Quid Pro Quo is?

Blame yourself, Joe. Greed runs in your family and since you are the head of the family, you don't have to be a rocket scientist to find the root of Biden corruption.

According to Biden his son "did nothing wrong".
That is the entire reason that his son is a loser, dopehead, whoremonger.... He has always had a permissive, absentee, incompetent Father who covered up for him.

Somebody should sit Joe down and have him watch the OAN investigative report that interviews the prosecutor that he had fired for investigating Burisma. He might even want to review the transcripts of the conversations he had just before the firing with the Ukraine President Poroshenko. Biden laid out the bribe request quite clearly as Poroshenko revealed to Shokin shortly thereafter. It might refresh his shaky memory on these matter.

Apparently, Joe cannot think for himself. That alone should disqualify him for President.

And, there you are playing golf with the guy from Burisma.
Are you expecting people to not think you were fully briefed on the person(s) you were playing golf with?
That they weren't vetted by Secret Service to ensure it was safe for a sitting VP?

Joe Biden is clearly signaling that he is a dumb ass. as only a dumb ass would not know that his son being hired to a do nothing job by a corrupt Ukrainian energy company at a rate of pay amounting to $83,000.00 a month, at the same time that he (Joe) was Obama’s point man on US foreign policies and doling out foreign aid money to Ukraine would not constitute at least a conflict of interest, and at the most a suspicion of politically based nepotistic corruption on the part of the Bidens and sufficient predication to commence a criminal investigation by the US Department of Justice into those activities. The only reason such an investigation was not commenced is that the Obama crew and the Democrats have been protecting Biden up to now, including attempting to impeach and remove Trump from office for suggesting that the suspected Biden perpetrated corruption be investigated.

I am no attorney and even know better than that. Isn't Biden an attorney? Isn't he a former lawmaker -- one who held office for decades in the highest law-making body of the land (i.e., Congress)?
Biden knew better. And he's stupid to think the rest of us are stupid enough to believe he is telling the truth.

Is Biden for real? How stupid does he think we are? Someone had to tell you that your coke snorting good for nothing son was on the Board of Directors of a foreing company, not able to speak the language, not having ANY experience in the particular field, and the company is under investigation by the Ukraine gvt.-which you then blackmailed o drop the investigation, and you claim NO ONE TOLD YOU IT MIGHT LOOK BAD? You're the stupid one, Joe, if you think we believe a word of that malarky,
