And "Scranton Joe" or "Middle-Class Joe" might be part of the 1% but it was unlikely he had that sort of cash just laying about on hand.
It's not that he did it, but rather he keeps claiming that "I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings" -- even going so far as to scold a reporter for asking.
And he's repeated that claim in various forms several times
"I have never discussed, with my son or my brother or with anyone else, anything having to do with their businesses. Period."
After that one he would add,
"And what I will do is the same thing we did in our administration. There will be an absolute wall between personal and private [business interests] and the government."
This was well before we discovered about all the meeting he had with Hunter's business partners -- including in the White House.
Btw, the giveaway that there was something wrong with old Joe's claim was that he also often added that his son hadn't done anything unlawful. How can someone who has "never spoken to [his] son about his overseas business dealings" know that nothing illegal was done?
Just sayin.'
