Calling Hunter Biden to testify?
Put me down with the group that says it's a bullshit idea, just another distraction.
Whatever he may have done out there has NOTHING to do with T looking to find dirt on a political opponent. According to what we've read in the media, that act was illegal, regardless of whether they would have found anything or not. "Your honor, I went to rob this guy's house but didn't find anything to take, so I didn't commit a crime." If Hunter did something illegal, or if there's probable cause, then sure, investigate it. But that's a whole separate conversation, and this impeachment has NOTHING to do with it. I've had it up to here, and then some, with all these BULLSHIT distractions.

1. That's what I can't figure how they could get away with calling him as a witness
Last edited Sun Jan 19, 2020, 07:36 PM - Edit history (1) when this has nothing to do with him. That's like getting caught robbing the bank then putting the bank teller on trial.

2. Your example would appear to counter your point
A bank tellers testimony regarding a bank robbery would most certainly be relevant in the robbers trial.

12. More like they are putting the bank teller on trial saying they robbed the bank
because they think the teller was embezzling money.

3. What would they ask him ??
What does he know about Trump's phone call, or his withholding of military aid, or his request to go on TV and say there is an investigation against the Bidens?
What is one question they could ask Hunter Biden that would be relevant to the trial of Donald Trump? |

8. I agree.
Democrats should then object to any questioning not related to the charges in impeachment articles.

9. Yes. Let him testify.
He has nothing to hide, so it will just backfire badly on them. I really don't understand why they think that making Hunter Biden testify here is going to change anything.

11. The witnesses answers need to bring it right back to why they are really there...each and
every time.

7. Hunter Biden: " ... I don't know what my name is but I know Trump abuses children..." I don't see
... how this works out for repblicans.
