Why would a completely innocent man and former president put down such an insanely high retainer fee if he hasn’t even been indicted yet?
Because he knew any political party, elected officals, and partisanly weopanized govt agencies brazen and insane enough to publicly conduct the biggest criminal political scandals, failed coup attempts, and failed criminal Impeachment attempts in US history would stop at nothing and would never stop coming after him.
He knew anyone insane enough, so infected with TDS, that they would run into the streets and scream at the sky simply because they were told to do so would never stop attacking him.
Here we are, going on 7 years now, and, as usual, he has been proven right.
Here's a question for the OP:
Why would an 'innocent' man / family need the entire FBI & DOJ to protect him, to hide laptops, refuse to investigate, and go after anyone and everyone demanding they do their jobs by doing so?
If Biden and his family are so 'innocent' and 'transparent', willing to 'fully cooperate', why hasn't / isn't PRESIDENT Biden calling for his partisanly weopanized FBI to release Hunter's laptop and all evidence to tbe DOJ and for the DOJ to appoint an independent Counsel to investigate it fully to prove his and his family's innocence once and for all to the American people?
As you say, surely a truly innocent man has nothing to hide and does not need the DOJ & FBI to continue this cover-up for him.
