Hunter Biden, son of former Vice President Joe Biden, is a 49 year adult man and is a public figure in his own right, but if you were to listen to MSNBC Live guest host Chris Jansing on Friday you think the younger Biden decided to live a private life away from the spotlight and was not currently in the midst of his own scandal.

Jansing led into her strange attempt to exonerate Hunter Biden by asking University of Texas Professor Victoria DeFrancesco Soto about impeachment and whether David Brooks is correct when he says that even though Trump is guilty, Democrats should still not impeach him. After DeFrancesco Soto gave a long non-answer about how the "beautiful" impeachment system, but that impeachment also is not a high concern for people who just want to be able to pay their bills, Jansing decided to continue on the 2020 theme and went to Rick Tyler for his thoughts.

Showing the media's inability to walk and chew gum at the same time. Ignoring the controversies surrounding the Bidens, Jansing asked Tyler if the current controversy surrounding Trump will benefit Biden, "Could this help Joe Biden? I thought the picture, for example, they put out there of him watching his only remaining child, living child being trashed, frankly by the President of the United States, can be effective, in addition to being true."

Tyler explained that it could be a "double-edged sword" for Biden. On one hand, he argued that it allows Biden to reinforce his message that he alone is the candidate who can beat Trump, but also that Biden needs to carefully explain what exactly it is he did in Ukraine with regards to the Ukrainian Prosecutor General.

Hunter Biden, despite Jansing's attempt to use the Biden family's tragic history as a shield from any criticism, has questions that need to be answered. Why was a guy, whose father happened to be the Vice President of the United States, being paid $50,000 a month to sit on the board of an energy company, despite having no experience in the energy business? Even some people who advocate Trump's impeachment recognize that is something that Biden cannot easily brush aside.
