Apparently, this is the headline, Hunter Biden pulling behind Trump, but ahead of George Santos in federal indictment primary. Fun. The federal indictment primary. Fun. So you got conducted a poll in conjunction with the economist and they wanted to gauge the favorability ratings of several figures including Hunter Biden, former president Donald Trump and representative George Santos, all of whom are under federal indictment. So it's a poll

about potential criminals in government. Well, Hunter Biden is of course not in government, but he's related to the president of the United States. So the son of Joe Biden reached a plea deal with federal prosecutors. This happened when I was on vacation. So I don't know too many details about it. I purposely did not read the news. Yeah, it was on break. It's a couple of

tax charges and somebody having to do with possessing a gun while on illegal drugs and something like that. He should never own the gun. And then obviously selling out the United States to China. That's the one I always forget. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They hard proof. Marjorie Green saw it and everyone. She can't show you, but she thought. So the the poll was conducted among 1500 US

respondents, adults of course, between June 24th and June 27th. The Hunter Biden entry appears under the surveys favorability of public figures section, which features nine people, including Trump and Santos. The president's son is the only person among the nine who is neither an elected official nor a candidate for office. So despite the very low favorables, Hunter Biden is still pulling ahead of Santos in the non-existent

federal indictment primary. Santos, who has charged last month with fraud, money laundering and other offenses has just 11% favorability. However, Trump leads the two by a wide margin, 43%. Yeah. Jesus. Now let's get to Hunter. And that's it. Hunter pulled ahead of Santos. What's behind? I don't know. It doesn't say it's weird. Okay. I am fascinated by the 11% who are like George Santos. I like

him. I want to see more from that kid. I think he's got potential. George Santos would be like obviously the stuff that he has done and his alleged to have done is not nearly as bad as a lot of other politicians. Okay, so not surprisingly, just 14% of respondents said they had a favorable view of Hunter Biden. Just 4% said they have a very favorable view

7/18
This sectionLinkBookmarkComment

and 10% said they have a somewhat favorable view. Two third said they have either a somewhat or very unfavorable view of Hunter Biden. I don't again, I don't understand why you would have a very favorable view of Hunter Biden. I don't think about Hunter Biden ever. The only time I think about Hunter Biden is when Republicans forced me to and I take their accusations seriously. It's

like, okay, great. Awesome. Show me the evidence. Where is the quid pro quo that you guys are talking about? Okay. Oh, you don't, you don't have an answer for that. Then please stop making me think about Hunter Biden. Yeah. Show me the evidence. If you want me to believe that it's true. And if you want me to just extend you good will as we wait to

find out for another six month or two years, provide some evidence to me that you care about family members. Of prominent politicians making money off of their positions in cases that don't involve Joe Biden. Like honestly, say a single word about Jared Kushner and his investment deal with the Saudi government, which is many, many, it's exponentially more money than what you say Hunter Biden was able

10/18
This sectionLinkBookmarkComment

to get. I mean, the whole trademark situation with Ivanka Trump in China. I mean, come on. Yeah. And by the way, I understand that like from a thousand miles up what I just did seems like what about him. I don't think it is because we know that Jared Kushner did this. Yeah. It's not being alleged to be a crime, because the system is set up in

11/18
This sectionLinkBookmarkComment

a way that you're allowed to do this sort of thing. But he obviously did it. He shouldn't be allowed to do it. If Hunter Biden actually did what they say, then lock him up. I literally don't care what happens to Hunter Biden at all. I don't either. They're all crooks, guys. They're all crooks. Like I have no loyalty to any of these people. They're disgusting. The

12/18
This sectionLinkBookmarkComment

fact that Hunter Biden was given this cushy job on the board of barisma. Yeah. It's like, it's terrible, but it's not illegal. Yeah. Right. So if you find that gross, I agree with you, but you can't have a double standard. If you find that nepotism gross in regard to Hunter Biden, you have to stab the same feeling toward Trump's family members, getting appointed to like literal

13/18

executive branch positions as aid staffers, advisers, come on. They have no qualifications for which is not just a corporate gig. It is literally being vested with government power. Right. Exactly. But they don't care. They don't care. I know. And I just want, this is the brain rot that we're now dealing with because we've all been, again, condition to fight each other over stuff that has no

14/18
This sectionLinkBookmarkComment

impact on our lives. Right? And by the way, I'm guilty of this, too. I remember just being so obsessive of like every like Trump investigation, and I got to keep like, every day giving you updates on it. I just, I don't care anymore. Like it's not that I don't care. I will report on it when like important big things happen. Sure. But I think before there

15/18
This sectionLinkBookmarkComment

was this obsession with it because it was like the most important thing to do is to rid the country of Donald Trump or rid the government of Donald Trump. And it just never plays out the way you're hoping it's going to play out because people in positions of power or those connected to those in positions of power, get treated differently by the justice system. It doesn't

matter if they're Democrats, it doesn't matter if they're Republicans. It is what it is. That is the situation that we're dealing with. Sure. I would say I hope, I hope some of that wears off because I do think that holding particularly the president accountable is very important duty. It's something that TYT has taken very seriously since it literally started through Republican then Democrat then Republican and
