When the Repubs take control of the House in a few months all your questions will be answered. Let the Hunter hearings begin! It seems obvious that the so called "national security" experts who signed that letter did so for political reasons. They were all Trump haters. There was zero evidence of the laptop being the product of Russian disinformation. None. That was simply a way to bury the story until the election was over. Actual interference and collusion to influence the results of the election unlike the fake "Russian collusion" nonsense that went on for three years. The emails and information on the laptop were easily confirmed. There is no doubt even among the most leftist media like the NY Times and Wash Post that the laptop belonged to Hunter. The FBI and DOJ have dragged this out as long as possible. They will give Hutner a slap on the wrist after the midterm election and before the Repubs take over in January to avoid charging him for the numerous documented felonies. The fix was in from beginning to end. And the leftists wonder why Trump supporters have no faith in the justice system, media, or government officials. They are corrupt to the core. That includes many Republicans as well as almost every Dem.
Stupidity is also not a defense to a crime. Hunter would be judgment proof is that were the case. He was on drugs and not too bright to begin with. The fact that he did something idiotic is not surprising. It's the old CTer Oswald argument that there is so much evidence against him that the only possible conclusion is that he is innocent.
Let's get some answers now. To the best of your knowledge:
1. Why would a laptop repair shop launch an investigation into a laptop left by a customer?
2. Can you cite another example of when this was done?
3. What safeguards were used to ensure that the people searching for evidence on the laptop would not simply look for account codes that they could use to steal money from the laptop owner?
4. What assurances do I have, if the Republican's take over the house (not unlikely, due to gerrymandering) that my questions will even be addressed? Might they prefer to just ignore these issues, just as you have been doing, at least up to now?
5. How do you find 51 CIA officials, all of whom agree to sign on for a lie? Why wouldn't some of those approached blow the whistle instead? The Republican defense of this is that this was a Deep State operation. Exactly the same sort of defense used by CTers to argue the JFK assassination was a Deep State operation.
And how, exactly, is this not an example of a Large-Secret-Enduring Conspiracy Theory?
6. As an aside, why couldn't Hillary Clinton, as a Secretary of State, make classified secrets unclassified, just by thinking about it? Which would allow her to email information that would otherwise be sensitive. I know there is no law that allows a Secretary of State to do this, but there is no law that allows a President to do this either.
It sounds like to me that a routine occurance, a busy person turned in a laptop for repair and forgot about it. And the owner of the shop asked himself, "This belongs to the son of Joseph Biden. How can I turn this to Donald Trump's advantage?". That's what it sounds like to me. And if this true, why not look for ways to make certain this turns to Trump's advantage, rather than go through the hard work of wading through hundreds or thousands of files in the hope you find something of a criminal nature, and which a shop owner can recognize as such?
7. Wouldn't such a shop owner need to be an expert in international law?
Not a question but a final point, in 2016, Trump called for the Russians to release/fabricate evidence against Hillary Clinton on her emails. Obviously, they couldn't do that because it would be too obvious. But it seems possible they would look for other ways to help Trump, like doctoring evidence on Hunter Biden's laptop. Something Trump did not publicly ask them to do.
If you don't see a plausible answer to these question, then just admit you don't currently see a plausible answer to these questions? Dodging these questions will be taken as response that you do not currently see any plausible answers. And if you don't, I don't ever expect I will ever receive plausible answers from the Republicans.
