Biden Influence-Peddling / Hunter's Testimony

I used to be skeptical. Now I'm convinced Biden's a crook. The only defense they really have at this point basically depends on their having spread the pieces of the puzzle around sufficiently to make their guilt less-that-perfectly obvious.
   Many Dems continue to insist that THERE IS NO EVIDENCE...which is, of course, utterly delusional. But, as always, the MSM helps them out by concealing and creating, spinning, nipping and tucking the evidence to create a tale that is as pro-Biden as can be got away with. 
   I'm not optimistic anything will happen. The Pubs almost seem disinterested. But we know they have to be interested. So there's got to be another explanation. Maybe they know they can't make the case stick. Or they think an impeachment will rally the blue team when it's down. Or they don't want to give the Dems a reason to ditch the eminently beatable Biden. Dunno.
   Me, I'm inclined to think that our situation is so desperate that we have to just ignore backward-looking considerations of justice. (Actual justice--not "justice" in the contemporary sense of: a contraction of "social justice"...which is usually not justice at all...) Say Biden was a big, fat influence-peddler...but he's not doing it now. Well, we may just have to ignore it--at least for five more years. Trump's a harder case, but the same thing goes: if the Dems pose enough of a danger, we may have to ignore his post-election freakout. It's not going to happen again--so long as he wins in November. If he loses...who knows? One can argue that it's the fact that he's capable of such things that matters. And I'd agree to a large extent. But I'd add: the question now is: who will help the nation more and harm it less 2025-2029, Trump or Biden? The answer in 2020 was pretty obvious (as I argued repeatedly): Biden would be worse than Trump. That has been confirmed: Trump was better on policy and appointments--i.e. better in the ways that really matter. Especially re: the Supremes. Will a Trump hellbent on revenge be better than an even-more-in-decline Biden for another year or so, then Harris? Harder call, IMO. One thing to remember is that Trump is all/mostly talk. So he's not going to actually work for most of either the good things or the bad things he talks about. Perhaps more importantly: the whole power of the elite complex will, again, be against him. Basically, he'll be thwarted at every turn...whereas Joe will function primarily as a cog at the center of the big blue machine, insuring its smooth functioning. 
   I dunno, man.
   I dunno.
