Donald Trump’s campaign responded to Hunter Biden’s conviction relating to gun possession.
The campaign called the conviction a “distraction.”
“This trial has been nothing more than a distraction from the real crimes of the Biden Crime Family, which has raked in tens of millions of dollars from China, Russia and Ukraine. Crooked Joe Biden’s reign over the Biden Family Criminal Empire is all coming to an end on November 5th, and never again will a Biden sell government access for personal profit,” the statement says.
Others responded to Biden’s conviction, sharing similar sentiments.
Vivek Ramaswamy said, “This trial was a sham.”
“Just like the Trump trial, it was a sham, but a sham for a different reason,” he said. “It’s a sham designed to legitimize the Trump conviction (…) but it also avoids accountability for the Biden crime family on the actual things that Hunter Biden should have been charged for.”
Representative Matt Gaetz (R-FL) wrote, “The Hunter Biden gun conviction is kinda dumb tbh.”
Representative Pat Fallon (R-TX) noted on X, “Prosecutors didn’t pursue FARA charges for Hunter because the paper trail leads back to Joe Biden.”
“Don’t let Hunter’s gun charge conviction today fool you: We still need accountability for the Biden influence peddling scheme that sold out Americans,” he added.
