A bunch of folks will conclude that since Biden was attempted to be impeached that he did something wrong.

It is all about damaging him politically. Nothing more.

And they're damaging a strength of Biden: how he has never been on the take financially.

Year after year, near the bottom of net worth in Congress.
His tax returns were audited every year from 2009-2016 (the only years he was in public office while Hunter did his thing with Burisma)

His last 24 years of tax returns have been disclosed online.

After 42 years in Federal public office, he couldn't afford the cancer treatments for his dying son.

So they're smearing one of the few thoroughly honest men in Congress who didn't cash in and sell himself out.

It is a disgrace.

When you wonder why more good men like Biden don't opt for public service, this is why.
