Hunter Biden is a nepotistic slouch compared to Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner

Opinion: When it comes to using a family connection to rake in the dough, Biden is a sad and sorry slacker compared to the president’s daughter and son-in-law.
Republican senators in the impeachment trial of Donald Trump want to call Joe Biden’s son Hunter as a witness.
Fine, but what about Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner?
None of these high-profile political offspring have anything to do with the charges against Trump, but when it comes to using nepotism and a family connection in order to rake in the dough, Biden is a sad and sorry slacker compared to the president’s daughter and son-in-law.
Biden took 5 years to collect $3 million
In 2014, no doubt because of his name, Hunter Biden was appointed to the board of a Ukrainian natural gas company called Burisma.
News reports suggest that he was paid $50,000 a month to offer his advice on finance and strategy. Sure.
The appointment was for five years, ending in 2019. If you do the mathit amounts to a whopping $3 million.

That’s a huge number to you and me.
But to Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, it’s chump change.
No family in American history has cashed in more on a political office and nepotism than the Trumps.
It took Hunter Biden five years to collect $3 million.
Ivanka and Jared reported $135 million
Ivanka Trump’s stake in the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C., netted her nearly $4 million just last year.
It’s the go-to place for foreign dignitaries and business moguls hoping to suck up to the president.
Meantime Ivanka, unlike Hunter, has a job inside the White House.
And so, too, does her hubby Kushner.
The two of them, senior advisers to the president,reported an income last year of up to $135 million, which included the kind of foreign entanglements that should scream conflict of interest.
That level of profiteering should put Ivanka and Jared in the Nepotism Hall of Fame.
There are no angels in politics. That’s no secret.
Since the beginning of the republic elected officials – on just about every level – have found soft landings for wayward offspring, black sheep or even bright, well-qualified family members.
So, he's the Billy Carter of the family
News operations haven’t found anything illegal in Biden’s time with Burisma. He traded in on the family name, but his personal windfall is chicken feed compared to the money being raked in by Trump’s daughter and son-in-law.
Trump and his supporters in the Senate are trying to use Hunter Biden to divert attention from Trump’s attempt to strong arm Ukraine – his willingness to hold up financial aid appropriated by Congress in order to have the Ukrainian government announce an investigation of Hunter and his father. (The stuff that’s supposedly in former presidential adviser John Bolton’s book.)
By all accounts Hunter Biden is the Billy Carter of his family. Only more so.
I might be the Hunter Biden of my family. Only more so. But that’s on me, not my wonderful pops.
What about Rudy Giuliani's son?
One of more hypocritically humorous aspects of the Trump’s obsession with the Bidens is how he used Rudy Giuliani as the point man for his Ukrainian scheme.
I’d love to see Giuliani rant about Hunter Biden during the impeachment trial, flailing his arms and demanding an investigation, only to be asked abouthisson, Andrew.
Turns out that Rudy’s boy is on the White House payroll, too, making $95,000 a year as “Special Assistant to the President and Associate Director of the Office of Public Liaison.”
What does that entail, exactly?
Apparently, it is Andrew Giuliani’s “job” – at nearly 100 grand per year in taxpayer dollars – to serve as a “liaison to the sports community.”

Company part-owned by Jared Kushner got $90m from unknown offshore investors since 2017
Overseas investment flowed to Cadre while Trump’s son-in-law works as US envoy, raising conflict of interest questions
A real estate company part-owned by Jared Kushner has received $90m in foreign funding from an opaque offshore vehicle since he entered the White House as a senior adviser to his father-in-law Donald Trump.
Investment has flowed from overseas to the company, Cadre, while Kushner works as an international envoy for the US, according to corporate filings and interviews. The money came through a vehicle run by Goldman Sachs in the Cayman Islands, a tax haven that guarantees corporate secrecy.
Kushner, who is married to Trump’s elder daughter Ivanka, kept a stake in Cadre after joining the administration, while selling other assets. His holding is now valued at up to $50m, according to his financial disclosure documents.
Cadre’s foreign funding could create hidden conflicts of interest for Kushner as he performs his work for the US government, according to some ethics experts, who raised concerns over the lack of transparency around the investments.
Disclosures issued late Monday by the White House for Kushner and his wife, Trump’s daughter Ivanka, showed that Kushner held assets totaling at least $181 million. His previous disclosure filed in April 2017 had showed assets in at least the $140 million range.
Biden and his son are a very small price for dragging the orangeman down. bring it on. let's get all of them.If they call Hunter and Joe, are they saying that that is going to be publicly broadcast or pay-per-view?
There will be no price to be paid by the Bidens. The Biden’s are a good family with a very sympathetic history.
The GOP running them through the ringer will only create sympathy and expose their cockamamie allegations even further.
Joe ran for president twice and failed miserably. he was comic relief for Obama as a VP, he does have a creepy vibe and if the field of the Dem candidates wasn't so weak and crappy, no one would have cared for him as a candidate. his son has been a dead beat not paying child support till it was proved by DNA test that he is the father. he also has no qualifications to deserve a 50k payment from a Ukranian energy company.
As I said, if ending joe's political career and his son freeloading are the price to end the orange's reign, so be it.
Ok. Biden’s weakness is that he is old and his strength is that he is likable.
He’s got a grifting son and a veteran son. One squeaky clean kid and another who messed with drugs. Same as many other families in the US.
He loves his kid unconditionally. Most parents can relate to that.
If they call Hunter and Joe, are they saying that that is going to be publicly broadcast or pay-per-view?
It will probably, be publicly broadcast I imagine if the goal is to finish off Joe Biden for good. He is going to plead the 5th and his son Hunter as well. I do not think he is going to talk. Of course, the court of public opinion will have convicted Joe Biden. Mission accomplished.
Probably both sides will want to proceed by deposition first so they can get a preview of whether they want to move to the public spectacle or not or prepare for what is coming from opposing witnesses.
They will have to vote for it in any case. Could be enough votes to end this on the spot acquitting President Donald Trump outright. Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski and Mitt Romney, RINO liberals are in favor of witnesses. However, Diane Feinstein, Joe Manchin and Doug Collins are Democrats who might vote for not calling additional impeachment witnesses nullifying the RINO liberals.
