In that instance Gillar is specifically discussing Joe and calls him the big guy.
Whether he calls lots of people "Big guy" or just Joe is a different matter.
Ha hahah. I doubt even God trusts Hunter with his share. Why would he be in charge of it.
No. No it doesn't.
Because he's a sneaky idiot. This doesn't invalidate the emails that were sent.
No. I make no defense of any Republicans or their actions.
Well, they found one 10% email. If that is explained (and the FBI bias) then it becomes a nothingburger.
This is where we came in. The email wasn't made up. The FBI misleading social media wasn’t made up. The lack of explanation for the big guy is not made up.
Except there was no ongoing Russian Propaganda investigation. Hunter's laptop has nothing to do with Russia and they had access to it for 9 months.
They could imply that the laptop was fake and the fault of the Russians.
They could say there was no Russian involvement.
So why the Russian Propaganda warnings?
I don't really care. The 10% email is the only item relevant to Joe and copies of that exist independently of the laptop.
If this was investigated 4 years ago then it wouldn't have survived until this election season.
For Joe, the bottom is simple and hasn't changed since day 1.
Who is the big guy that Hunter was being paid on behalf of?
What was the big guy being paid 10% for?
The voters are still awaiting an explanation.
You just don’t get it, do you?
How, exactly, should Joe Biden prove he wasn’t involved, in something he wasn’t involved in?
Thats why the onus is on the accusers to prove it. Thats why we have a justice system that works on the idea that one is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
And all they have is an email that refers to “the big guy”, and everyone baselessly assumes that it’s Joe because it fits their agenda. Maybe H is heroin and the big guy is their supplier. Maybe H is Hillary Clinton and the big guy is Bill. Maybe H is Halliburton and the big-guy is Dick Cheney. Maybe it refers to a portion of the project that is classified, and legally it cannot be revealed who “the big guy” is. Maybe she’s born with it. Maybe it’s Maybelline.
The point is, you’ve managed to take one cryptic sentence, sent by someone other than a Biden, completely out of context, and spun it as a conspiracy against a Biden that we are still arguing about 5 years later. Bravo.
And now, the only thing that would satisfy you is to prove a negative.
By getting his son to explain who the big guy was and what he was supposed to do for 10% of the deal.
This is the court of public opinion, not law. Joe will be guilty of corruption in many voters minds. Granted someone is not going to vote for Trump because they think Biden is corrupt, but it does eat away at trust in the Democrats.
Not baseless. But we've covered that.
Maybe Gillar should say who H is (Hunter obviously), who the big guy is and what they did. That would let Joe off the hook. That's the only solution to the speculation.
The point is that it still hasn't been addressed 5 years later, and the FBI mislead everyone into calling it Russian Propaganda.
Nope. Just a reasonable explanation from the business group and a full FBI investigation.
