5 reactions to the Hunter Biden verdict
Vivek Ramaswamy
Former 2024 Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy posted a video on X Tuesday, describing the Biden trial as a "sham."
"Just like the Trump trial, it was a sham, but a sham for a different reason. It's a sham designed to legitimize the Trump conviction; that's why it came right after, even for charges that date way far back," he said. "But it also avoids accountability for the Biden crime family on the actual things that Hunter Biden should have been charged for."
Ramaswamy listed "peddling foreign influence while his actual father, Joe Biden, was the vice president of the United States" as something Hunter Biden "should have been charged for."
He insisted that "Hunter had no business serving on the board of a Ukrainian energy company, a state-affiliated energy company that's affiliated with the same country, Ukraine, that his father now, as the U.S. president, is sending hundreds of billions of dollars of your taxpayer money to."
"That's where the real crimes lie," Ramaswamy said.
He reiterated his belief that the verdict "deflects accountability for the actual investigations that are more close to implicating Joe Biden while coming in convenient timing right after the sham Trump conviction in the veil of bipartisanship."
Ramaswamy concluded by urging his followers "don't buy it,"
"This is a smokescreen," he claimed. "And the reality is, you got to cut through it to get to the essence of what's happening in this country."
