I don't understand why any of this matters. Is it just to paint Biden with a 'corruption' brush? Trump's family has already been shown to have done as much or worse than these claims against Hunter, and Trump's network of hotels have been raking in cash for access (recent NYT story: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/10/10/us/trump-prop...).

This is such a strange argument.

If Trump is worse doesn't matter. If there is something true about Hunter and Joe Biden, he would be open to blackmail That's a security risk.

Trump's base doesn't care that he's corrupt. Biden's does.

They don't get held to the same standards because they're playing to different audiences.

They are trying to drag down Biden by implying he is the person mentioned in Hunters family texts, saying that half of their salaries go to "Pops".
