Trump shocks by hawking $60 MAGA Bibles

IMO, HB needed to capitalize on his family connections and his celebrity to make money and succeeded. Criticism was inevitable and some of it valid, but attacking Hunter to get at his father is not likely to work legally or politically.

Proof of what? You are denying the diamond pay off?

What have the Biden's present to refute the evidence presented against them?

 

And when that capitalization involves influence peddling to our worst foreign adversaries and bribery at the highest levels it becomes a federal crime along with the money laundering schemes. The IRS whistleblowers testified the art deal was a HUGE red flag for money laundering and illegal payoffs, we know the Biden's lied about the so-called ethics plan which never existed. We know the art was merely a vessel to transfer hundreds of thousands of dollars from big time campaign money raisers.

Is Hunter Biden’s art any good?

So I reached out to Sebastian Smee, the Pulitzer Prize-winning art critic for The Washington Post, to get his evaluation of Hunter Biden, artist.

Cillizza: Let’s start simple: Is Hunter Biden’s work any good, aesthetically speaking?

Smee: For me, not really.....

..To me, Biden seems a bit of a dabbler.

His work has the feeling of an afterthought. It doesn’t feel like it needed to be made, except perhaps as a therapeutic exercise.

Cillizza: How has the art world reacted to Hunter Biden the artist – particularly given that he has no formal training as such?

Smee: Mostly, a shoulder shrug......people with influence in the art world are looking at his work and thinking, “Nothing much to see here.”

Cillizza: The New York Times last year described Biden’s paintings as “leaning toward the surreal.” Is that how you would describe them? Why or why not?

Smee: People sometimes say “surreal” when they mean random..... Biden’s work is less surreal than decorative.

Cillizza: In an interview earlier this year with Artnet, Hunter Biden said he paints “to bring forth, what is, I think, the universal truth.” What do you make of his work, seen through that light?

Smee: Not trying to be unkind (no one is interested in my idea of universal truth either, as far as I know) but I’m not sure how interested I am at the moment in Hunter Biden’s idea of universal truth.

I mean, give me a break. What is he? A Bodhisattva? A guru? He may have figured out some stuff for himself, and that’s great. But if I’m searching for universal truths, there are other people I’ll go to first.

Cillizza: Finish this sentence: Hunter Biden’s work resembles the work of ____________.” Now, explain.

Smee: “… a cafe painter.”

 

IF you want to nitpick, okay.

IN the last 4 years, you're the first to complain about it.

 

Hardly "nitpicking".

 

What diamond payoff? This is the first time I've heard that one. New spin? More fake bee ess with zero evidence? Refute what evidence?

There. Is. No. Evidence.

You claimed money laundering. Effing prove it or admit the lack of credibility.

 

Do not forget that we are talking people who think orange is a good color for their leader.

I suppose that I do as well but then they accept it on his face and I'm shooting for his shirt and pants.

 

Maybe he's confusing with Diamond Pat Robertson?

It's also called lowering the office of the presidency to a mercantile cesspool.

 

Your comment was an incompetent argument.

 

Child abuse does not equal 'results'.

 

Wasn't it you who criticized me for 'speculation', and here you are, speculating.

 

Yeah, someone running for the highest office in the land, a guy who is an adulterer, liar, profane, greedy, arrogant and who claims he does not need God's forgiveness is selling Bibles to make money to pay for the fines for his crimes and legal bills.

wonderful.

 

An adulterer, liar, profane, greedy, arrogant guy who claims he does not need God's forgiveness is selling Bibles to make money to pay for the fines for his legal bills and crimes......

If that is capitalism, it's also reducing the office of the presidency to a mercantilistic cesspool

And you don't give a damn because it's 'capitalism'.

 

What was this about the 2000 children? Since Biden took office, over 85,000 children caught and released by the border guards are unaccounted for.

 

American Christians must be so proud!

 

I doubt that MAGA people are into high art, it's beyond their horizons. that is why they vote for a guy like Trump, he caters to their base biases and prejudices.

Hunter has talent, fyi.

 

You're just repeating right wing talking points. You really don't know that.

 

The Hur report does NOT state there are classified material revealed and thus included in the book.

Read it again and provide the citation you are referring to.

 

"legally questionable?' Accord to whom?

According to right wing partisans who want to see it that way.

In fact, there is NOTHING in any Comer document that implicates Joe Biden in any crime.

Hur did not prosecute due to Joe's mental capacity. That's a misleading statement.

He believed that Joe's poor memory would garner sympathy to a jury, but there were other factors.

Moreover, in the larger transcript, Hur declared that Joe had a photographic memory. so, there is a contradiction.

 

Your premise, what you are implying, has been totally debunked and destroyed

 

What is it that is not true?

 

The two are not mutually exclusive.

 

Nice try.
