Critical thinking time...
Imagine if you will, this fantasy scenario...
Donald Trump Jr. locked in a gig in Ukraine which paid him a ton of money for no apparent reason prior to his father becoming POTUS.
Then his father, BDE MAGA DJT assumes office and within a year, he's sending $50+ billion in cash and weapons to Ukraine to help them after Russia invades.
What do you think the media reaction (especially CNN/MSNBC/NYT) would be in this exact scenario?
Especially given Russia had invaded Ukraine in the past and we as a country basically did nothing about it (Obama I'm looking at you).
Do you think the media narrative on $50+ billion flowing from Trump to Ukraine given his son's past performances would be exactly as it is today with Biden? (ie. SILENCE on son and unending SUPPORT on the $$$$)
Discuss amongst yourselves.

The point is only moot if you wish to change the rules of the exercise, which is what you are doing. Please bow out if that is your goal.

Russia would not have invaded Ukraine with that crazy loose canon orange bully at the controls.

I think you are right about that, but not for the reasons you think.

You are also changing the rules of the simulation.
I will continue deleting replies designed to take the thread off course.

The simple answer, is Trump is of questionable character, always has been and he does nothing to disavow this.
Kind of like, when the guy fresh out.of the penitentiary moves in next door and then your house gets broken into and your car gets stolen. Who you gonna blame? Not saying it's the right thing to do but it's human nature.
Be sure to delete this if you don't agree......if you can't beat em.....DELETE EM!!

I presented a very specific thread with specific rules of engagement.
You can't deal with that, so you're gonna troll me some more instead of ignoring.
Got it.

I gave an honest answer, by your rules. If you want to further adjust the rules to determine the outcome. By all means, it's your forum, I'm just visiting

Except you didn't.
The question was:
What do you think the media reaction (especially CNN/MSNBC/NYT) would be in this exact scenario?

You already know the answer, and it is the same one any Republican will give.
If it was Donald Trump and Jr having the same Ukranian dealings as the Bidens the liberal media would be on it like seagulls at the beach, saying crackhead Hunter took money to secure foreign aid from the USA to Ukraine.
Just like the late night talk show hosts never make fun of Biden, no way will the mostly liberal media imply any thing inappropriate with Hunter Biden's Ukranian dealings.
It is obvious to a blind man Hunter was selling political influence which may have gone as far as discussing foreign aid amounts. Hunter is a fried brain crackhead, he would have nothing else to contribute unless Zelenskyy needed someone to score him some crack and whores.

I'm sorry, I didn't spell it out for you
The reaction would be negative because of what I mentioned in post #7

It has to do with being a Democrat and Republican, nothing more, nothing less, nice try. It is nothing but ridiculously extreme political bias.
