Allies of the president reportedly told the New York Times that Joe Biden's "inability to say no" to his son, Hunter Biden, with regard to his business dealings has caused "avoidable political distractions."
The report says that his allies "have privately criticized Mr. Biden’s apparent inability to say no when Hunter sought to pull him into his business dealings."
"Some allies of the president say his loyalty to his son — inviting him to state dinners, flying with him aboard Marine One and standing on the White House balcony with him — has resulted in wholly avoidable political distractions," the report continued.

Correction, he was unable to say no to the money he collected.

Correction: Hunter was unable to say no to his corrupt Dad. These people are hopeless liars.

Nope. Hunter was the bag man for the Biden Crime Family. Don't feed us Barbra Streisand.

He only did it because he loved his son sooooo much. (Even if he didn't die in Afghanistan or some such place and came home to a fired damaged house in a flag draped coffin.) Of course that doesn't explain the bold faced lies or the bags of money for no services actually rendered. It's a conundrum for your average dog faced pony soldier.

I call BS. Joe has been crooked forever, and just was happy to send out his bagman and salesman to make deals and collect the cash.

So......bribery, money laundering and influence peddling is just a distraction??
And a phone call is an impeachable/idictable offense???

Source of this feeble excuse for Biden's corruption is disappointing, but not surprising

The next time I hear a liberal defending the Biden crime family I’m going to ask them how many suspicious account activity reports they have and how many shell companies they have. That should shut them up.

OMG, how long has it taken his "team" to come up with this whopper? I guess that focus group tested this and it came out above "the dog at his homework" or "Joe was too busy getting arrested in South Africa while trying to break Nelson Mandela out of jail..." or "Joe was too busy discovering the South Pole...".

Sorry!!! all you apologists!! ignorance of the law is no defense and cockamamie excuses like this one are completely not a defense
--- if that's what you're looking to present as a defense you've already lost your case
--- hey diapers, hope you enjoy Leavenworth because that's where you belong along with the rest of your commie entourage, including comrade doctor jill

There is more to this story than understandable parental indulgence.

The Biden Crime Family has never done an honest day's work. This is just more leftist BS from Fox (read Faux) News. Right, Tucker?

OH NO! "The dog ate my homework" excuse as more revelations tie Joe to the family money vacuum machine.

This whole Bribery Scam was JOEY 99.9% and his son Hunter, the Bagman, .01%.

Hunter wanted 10% for the Big Guy who wanted 50% for himself. That is not 'inability to say no'.

So now Biden's spin doctors are telling us that bribery and influence peddling are just "wholly avoidable political distractions"?
And hasn't Mr. Potato Head sworn multiple times that he never, no never, discussed Cole Head's business schemes? Now we're hearing that he not only discussed these criminal enterprises but that he said yes to every one of them.

Quite the spin, trying to pose Joe as the caring father. To the contrary, Joe sent Hunter to bring money to him and it was distributed throughout The Biden family. Furthermore, if he was the caring father they want you to believe, he wouldn’t have sent his horribly addicted son into a situation that would further his addiction. Biden is a fake on all fronts, and a mean one.

What he couldn’t say no to was not his sweet child but all the money!

#10, this is all spin. I doubt they're afraid of Joe going to jail. There's no federal prosecutor in the entire breadth of the DOJ who would indict 'Fingers' Joe. Impeachment is the only remedy, and that's more politically-based than law-based. All spin. Maybe Fingers' puppeteers heard something that scary could be coming out of the House of Rep's investigation, because I've read that one of Trump's persecutors is ready with yet another indictment, which he could drop as soon as dirt on Fingers hits the MSM.
