Okay, a lot of y'all realized why the GOP went apoplectic when Hunter Biden decided that he would testify, but only in front of cameras, and the press, and the public. We know the GOP's penchant to dishonestly leak details, and to also try to twist the truth.

We also know that they do not want the hearings public is because well...they would have egg on their face, and the truth would get out. It's not unexpected they want to do this behind closed doors, and in the dead of night. They want a narrative that's of their own.

However their flood the zone tactics have been failing them. Keep in mind that Comer was braying about this for the better part of a year. His hand was forced by Hunter who wished to testify in public, on the record, with cameras rolling. This is a GOP own-goal.

If they don't give Hunter what he's asking for (and they did reject that) then they just proven they have nothing, and are trying to get a Fox "news" soundbite. If they do give him the hearings, it would turn out to be a lot worse for the GOP than their "impeachment" scam against Biden.

They know if they're over the top, and they're being contrasted...they would be more foolish than they are now. There's one other option that they do not want to do...and that's to just give up the ghost and move on. If they do that, then they'll bray.

They'll face one serious question, "Why'd you do it the first place?" The GOP has painted themselves in a zero-win situation here, and it's only going to get worse for them. The Democrats has seized on all of the GOP's missteps and has made gold.

The best thing to happen was for Hunter to demand a public hearing. Remember the GOP did this against Hillary for Benghazi, and ran with it. Now it's not even that. People now have wised up and are paying close attention to the GOPs childish antics, and chaos starting. The voting public hates it.
