Biden Crime Family: Risky for GOP?

  • last year
Some prominent Republicans are divided over the strategy of casting President Biden as the head of a crime family in light of the recent charges against his son Hunter Biden. Republican candidates and their aligned super PACs are not putting significant money behind attacks against him. Instead, they focus their ads on criticizing Biden's and Democrats' handling of various policy areas. There is a debate within the GOP on how hard to pursue Hunter Biden's legal problems, with some strategists cautioning against going all-in on this issue, comparing it to past controversial cases like Benghazi, which didn't significantly impact public opinion. A recent poll suggests that while some Americans believe Hunter Biden received favorable treatment due to his father's position, many also view Joe Biden as a "good father" for supporting his son through legal troubles.
