Meet the Press’s Peter Alexander asked if Hunter Biden would be an election issue, but Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) turned the question into something counterproductive.

Alexander asked: “While Hunter Biden is not on the ballot, cases this fall could reveal some potentially damaging details about Hunter Biden’s business dealings. In the final weeks of this campaign season, Democrats are How concerned should one be about another high-profile trial?
Rep. Khanna, who is also a Biden campaign attorney, responded: “It won’t be a problem because Democrats actually believe in the rule of law. You asked Rep. Donald, would you accept the Trump case? Even if it was appealed? He didn’t. Say “yes” and I will accept it if it is overturned and I will accept any judicial process from Hunter Biden. This is really a father’s love for his drug addict son who understands that it is legal and he will take responsibility for it. The legal ramifications, the president is prepared to deal with this on Father’s Day with a father’s love. I think that’s what’s going to happen, the president’s love and concern for people who are going through hard times.
It’s shameful but not surprising that the corporate media is trying to make Hunter Biden an issue in the campaign. After the Hunter Biden question, Alexander turned to questions about President Biden’s age.
If the media were to ask Hunter Biden, they would get an answer that emphasized President Biden’s love for his son and the importance of accountability and facing consequences. Far from being a political liability, Hunter Biden’s conviction would demonstrate the strength and character of Joe Biden.
