Hunter Biden guilty verdict 'took the wind out of' Trump's rigged trial claims

Former US Federal Prosecutor Scott Tenley says Hunter Biden’s guilty verdict "took the wind out of" Trump's statements about his trial being politically motivated. The US President's son Hunter Biden has been found guilty of all three counts of illegally possessing a gun whilst under the influence of drugs. Mr Tenley was questioned about whether Hunter Biden’s guilty verdict delegitimise claims that Donald Trump’s conviction was politically motivated. “The prosecution itself took the wind out of Trump‘s argument that the Biden justice department is pursuing its political enemies,” Mr Tenley told Sky News Australia. “Because if that were true, you wouldn’t expect Hunter Biden to get prosecuted. “Now you’ve had Hunter Biden convicted, which means that the Jury - even in Hunter Biden’s own state where the Bien’s are very popular – has found him guilty. “It’s not a rigged process.”
