I'm sorry, where was the Trump clan mentioned in the parent or GP post?
Whataboutism does not contribute to the discussion, and it is presumptuous to assume the original poster does not find those things concerning, as well.
To me personally, both are very concerning, and it's exhausting to me that the political class gets a pass on this behavior
- notahacker 4y agoWhataboutism is relevant when the story is a carefully orchestrated dump of a mixture of real and false information by one political faction intended to swing an election with a "Vote Sideshow Bob for President" message. There's not much doubt that Hunter Biden got board seats because he could brag about his deep understanding of and connections with the top level of US politics, and that he used illegal drugs extensively, but we knew that without the laptop.
- pstuart 4y agoThe laptop story is the original whataboutism. Again, the whole point of the laptop story is to smear the opposition and anybody who is concerned only about corruption in one party is not really concerned about corruption.
