Why Hunter Biden’s legal troubles are back in the news

The Spin
Republican narrative
This latest report conveniently fails to acknowledge any previously proposed charges involving Hunter Biden's sketchy overseas business dealings — which would call into question the president's involvement — raising concern that this investigation will amount to little more than a slap on the wrist. Like any other American, Hunter Biden must abide by the law and be justly punished for his clear offenses. The fact his father is the president should have no sway in the matter.
Democratic narrative
The right is trying to turn a story about Hunter Biden into one about his father. Besides the obvious fact that these are two completely separate individuals, the case against Hunter may never even come to fruition. Whether charges are brought or not, we should remember that this story is about Hunter, not the president.
