ABC News interview TONIGHT with Biden

Anonymous
My prediction: Biden's interview will fail to move the ball in either direction. He'll fumble a couple answers, giving his critics more to talk about, but he won't melt down like he did at the debate. After the interview the Dems will have no more clarity on their path forward than they do right now.

With his political career on the line, hard to imagine he crashes during a 20-minute pre-recorded interview conducted during his lucid hours, but we'll see.

So essentially you’ll vote for someone who can’t function? Do you have any standards at all?


Not PP, but I feel similarly. And my standard is voting for the candidate that is mostly likely to result in four years of an administration that makes policy choices that align with my view of what is in the best interest of our country. Given this particular election cycle, that means Biden....or almost anybody that could replace him at the top of the democratic ticket.


And you are fine with Hunter advising his father in the WH?


More so that Jared trading favors with the Saudis. Two billion and a hotel would be just the start of that corrupt relationship.


What Hunter Biden, the son of America’s vice president, and Christopher Heinz, the stepson of the chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations (later to be secretary of state), were creating was an international private equity firm. It was anchored by the Heinz family alternative investment fund, Rosemont Capital. The new firm would be populated by political loyalists and positioned to strike profitable deals overseas with foreign governments and officials with whom the US government was negotiating.

By the summer of 2009, the 39-year-old Hunter joined forces with the son of another powerful figure in American politics, Chris Heinz. Senator John Heinz of Pennsylvania had tragically died in a 1991 airplane crash when Chris was 18.


Joining them in the Rosemont venture was Devon Archer, a longtime Heinz and Kerry friend.


The three friends established a series of related LLCs. The trunk of the tree was Rosemont Capital, the alternative investment fund of the Heinz Family Office. Rosemont Farm is the name of the Heinz family’s 90-acre estate outside Fox Chapel, Pennsylvania.

The small fund grew quickly. According to an email revealed as part of a Securities and Exchange Commission investigation, Rosemont described themselves as “a $2.4 billion private equity firm co-owned by Hunter Biden and Chris Heinz,” with Devon Archer as “Managing Partner.”

The partners attached several branches to the Rosemont Capital trunk, including Rosemont Seneca Partners, LLC, Rosemont Seneca Technology Partners, and Rosemont Realty.

Of the various deals in which these Rosemont entities were involved, one of the largest and most troubling concerns was Rosemont Seneca Partners.

Rather than set up shop in New York City, the financial capital of the world, Rosemont Seneca leased space in Washington, DC. They occupied an all-brick building on Wisconsin Avenue, the main thoroughfare of exclusive Georgetown. Their offices would be less than a mile from John and Teresa Kerry’s 23-room Georgetown mansion, and just two miles from both Joe Biden’s office in the White House and his residence at the Naval Observatory.

Hunter and Chris Heinz set up a $2.4 billion private equity fund while Kerry was SOS and Biden VP.

How is that ok, but Kushner not?



If you're going to copy/paste from a NY Post article from 2018, you could at least use quotation marks and link it.

Did Hunter or Heinz work in senior policy positions in the White House even though they could not get a security without special presidential dispensation?

That's a pretty fu**in'BIG difference.


You can take it a step further and point out that Kushner was involved in Middle East policy on behalf of the White House, then personally landed the $2B and the Trump Organization a hotel in the Saudi Arabia.

The questions George asks will be the key. And, whether Biden has those questions in advance.


You don’t think Biden has the questions in advance?


Yeah, he got the questions in advance, but that doesn't mean that he will remember themm

Have a little respect for voting, would you?

It was a two hour interview. Why do you keep falsely suggesting it was 20 minutes?

ABC is airing the entire, unedited interview. Supposedly.

Source on it being two hours? That's highly unusual for a POTUS interview. CNN says 30 minutes: https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/05/media/abc-biden-interview/index.html ("It’s not clear how long the interview will end up lasting, but ABC affiliates have it slated for a 30-minute special.")

Just yesterday, Biden uttered this gem, “By the way, I’m proud to be, as I said, the first vice president, first black woman, to serve with a black president.”

NYT reports that the interview has been billed to affiliates as having a duration of 30 minutes, with possibility it could be extended.

We need more than 30 minutes of pre-recorded material. Have an effing press conference Joe!

In the same interview, he also made the bizarre claim that he was the “first president that got elected statewide in the state of Delaware, when I was a kid.”

I can certainly understand why you wouldn’t want to vote for Trump, but all Dems should be demanding a replacement for Biden.
