Fox News Poll: Increasing numbers think Joe & Hunter Biden did something illegal
Fox News ^ | 10/16/23 | Victoria Balara

Voters increasingly think both President Joe Biden and his son did something illegal when it comes to Hunter’s foreign business dealings. At the same time, over half think former president and leading Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump did something illegal in relation to classified documents and efforts to overturn the 2020 election, according to the latest Fox News survey.

The poll, released Monday, finds a majority of 52% believes Trump did something illegal in connection to efforts to overturn the 2020 election and his handling of classified documents. About a quarter each believe he did something wrong, but not illegal (23%) or didn’t do anything illicit (24%).

Majorities of Democrats (86%) and independents (53%) think Trump did something illegal while views among Republicans are more mixed (18% illegal, 35% wrong/not illegal, 45% nothing wrong).

Turning to the Bidens, the survey finds a record 52% think Hunter Biden did something illegal in relation to his business dealings in Ukraine and China. That’s up a couple ticks from 50% in August and up 13 points since December 2022 when 39% thought he committed a crime.

That negative shift is seen across the board, as independents (+18 points), Democrats (+13), and Republicans (+11) are now all more likely to think Hunter did something that’s against the law since December.

Corruption is the hardest stench to remove in politics unless you are in the deepest blue districts.

The scandal is only going to grow in the coming months and combined with polling, health concerns, and the economy I still believe he will not be the nominee.

The border situation is going to cost them some seats and donors are not that excited.

Not much upside for them.

It’s actually amazing anybody thinks they did anything illegal, given the amount of information that is suppressed by the government/media . . .

This is Fox “News” way of drawing a moral equivalency between Biden and Trump. The message is “Both are Bad”.

Funny - but the numbers cited (52% for both) are identical, but "increasingly" doesn' match the "over half" rhetoric.

This is rich. Now the frantic Biden propagandists want us to think $$$multi-million foreign payoffs....and even tax-evading “loans” to Hunter Biden were essentially (cough) .....”gifts.”
<><> Hunter had cunningly “loaned” himself HIS own income from Burisma,
<><>Hunter failed to report this Burisma income on HIS 2014 tax returns
<><>Hunter failed to pay the taxes on this income.
<><>even as some of Hunter’s Burisma income was paid back to him labeled as ‘loans’
<><>Hunter’s Burisma income was deducted on his company’s Rosemont Seneca Bohai tax returns.

Ace reporter John Solomon’s top-notch news vehicle, “Just The News,” reported on testimony
ex-business partner, Devon Archer, gave to the House Oversight Committee in August.
<><>part of the value Hunter brought to the Burisma board was “the brand.”
<><>”the brand” means the Biden family name.
<><>although platitudes about “corporate governance” were bandied about
<><>Hunter Biden was paid big bucks simply b/c of his last name.

Excellent point.

“It’s a ray of hope, and actually amazing, ANYBODY at all thinks the Bidens did
anything illegal, given the amount of information that is suppressed by the govt/media . . .”
