What are the chances a bunch of intelligence documents Joe was dealing with wouldn’t have any involving those areas? Now, what do the intelligence papers have to do with Hunter’s business in China and Ukraine? And why does Joe have papers on the UK and Iran if Hunter isn’t involved?

I don’t mind the incoming, Lippy’s comment was not only fair play, it was clever as well. It just reflects poorly on the moderator. That is to what I was referring.
