Great to have news of the intelligence of actual elephants as opposed to those who have adopted the elephant symbol and continue to galumph all over Hunter. In any other world, Hunter's recovery from the horrors of addiction brought out at the trial would be celebrated, not twisted into some sort of evidence against his father. But I am glad that the rule of law has been followed in this case without whining by either of the Bidens or by interference from Senior. Given how often DOJ is said to prosecute this particular offense as a stand-alone crime (almost never) the prosecution can be seen as an actual example of politically selective use of the law. But the law was broken, and consequences follow. What we will really have to see is what SENTENCE is given: that, far more than the actual prosecution, will give us a sense of political vindictiveness behind the whole thing. But I suspect that any pre-sentence interviews will find far less to fault Hunter than trump.
