How many times is too many to get burned by Trumpian/Giulianian bullshit? This is nothing, at least so far. Maybe a laptop exists, and maybe the FBI has had it for a year or so.

There’s no evidence there’s some sort of investigation. It appears likely that the FBI looked at it (if it exists), recognized it as obvious bullshit, and went on to actual important work.

There’s literally zero evidence of anything shady from Joe Biden related to this laptop, Burisma, Ukraine, etc. Not a shred. Only Trumpian bullshit.
