Hunter Biden to Resign From Board of Chinese Private-Equity Firm - WSJ


The son of Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden plans to step down from the board of a Chinese-based private-equity company amid intense criticism from President Trump that he profited from his father’s name.

Hunter Biden pledged in a statement released in a Medium post Sunday that he would step down from the board on Oct. 31 and not work for any foreign-owned companies or serve on their boards if his father is elected president.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++


Hmm NOW he see the problem and resigns . Why was he serving on boards in foreign countries that his father had great political influence over. Something smells fishy.

Or...and this might just blow your mind...he doesn't want to give Trump fans reason to criticize him while his dad runs for office.
 
Why is this even news? Countless people have cush jobs as a result of their friends of family's positions of power and influence.
Just look at Jared and Ivanka, who failed security clearance but had daddy-override that and put them into positions dealing with matters of national security. Don't they earn money from all the foreign dignitaries that stay at Trump hotels and resorts? Didn't they get investments from those foreign leaders into their real-estate properties?
Cohen was selling his connections to Trump immediately...remember the big AT&T and other checks he got? He didn't go to jail for that, it was swampy but it's the norm. Influence has value, it's a free market SLC>

Suddenly you're anti-free-market, and love Trump using his power to profit, but Hunter Biden who has no role in the United States Government.....he's the one you're so worried about?

All just a big right-wing attack on Biden for the 2020, based on piss and nonsense, with a healthy heaping of HYPOCRISY the likes of which the world has never seen.

I think it's also pressure from whatever board he's on to not bring negative attention to it.

Why?

The answer is rather obvious. But not to a portion of the population trained to avoid it.

No, that can't be it. Some made up bul**** is far more logical.

Like I said NOW that he has been exposed he is worried but when his father was VP he certainly wasn't. If its wrong NOW it was wrong back when his dad was VP seeing over China and Ukraine policies. If there was nothing wrong with it why resign.
 
I am sure he got help to the door.

They play checkers.

Ivanka and Eric don't count, even though they conduct business right from their White House offices. They're Republicans, so they're allowed.

Hunter Biden, who isn't a government official, can get hired by anyone who wants to hire him. The only question is whether his father pulled strings to him the position or whether the company who hired him thought they'd get influence and wether they did. There is no events at all that the Bidens did anything illegal or unethical. The Republicans are merely using their typical innuendo smear.

Yep. If there is evidence then there should be an investigation, but this is more of the old Cohn strategy of attacking your attackers and creating confusion in order to draw attention away from the one under investigation. Trump's original comment about China looking into the Bidens had nothing to do with evidence of wrong doing; it was just grasping for straws publicly. Trump looks like the guy who if he's going down, he's going to take someone down with him....and burn the house down for good measure.

Its only inappropiate if your father is the president. If he holds a lowly gov position pike say vice president, thats completely and entirely appropiate.

I think a fair question to ask is why resign now? Currently his father is a private citizen. Why not pledge to resign at the end of november 2020 if his father is elected. The kinda money he makes another year is significant

So your argument is the other side is doing it too so it's okay?

It's unethical as hell.

To the extent that no crime has been unearthed i agree with you. Its slimey but not a crime and they all participate in it both domestically and overseas. Both sides need to be more consistent with thier positions

How do you know he is worried? How do you know he resigned because "he has been exposed?" People resign from jobs everyday. How do you know Hunter resigned because he knew something was wrong?

I think you are just inventing facts and spewing innuendo because you want to hurt Joe Biden.

By your standard Trump's children should have resigned their positions as well since the Trump Organization does business with foreign governments. One could easily state that a president could influence business decisions. What I wonder about in the case with Hunter Biden, is if he received pressure from the board since companies don't like this kind of negative attention. When a board member is under any cloud of suspicion, it's not uncommon to see them resign. Also, resigning wouldn't change anything if there's actual malfeasance involved since he could still be prosecuted for any wrong doing.

:lol: You sure are gullible. I bet you would buy the Brooklyn Bridge if a Democrat was selling it. :lol:

If there was nothing wrong done by obtaining a Chinese board position during his father's vice presidency and negotiations with China, why is Hunter stepping down?
