After Hunter Biden was convicted on three gun-related charges on Tuesday, Republicans seemed to summon a common voice to hit all the same notes.
“Don’t let the Hunter Biden verdict distract you,” one tweet from GOP Rep. Warren Davidson’s office read, which was retweeted by the official House GOP account. The post then claimed “Joe Biden is still the ‘big guy,’” the “Biden family is involved in a corrupt influence-peddling scheme,” and “Hunter Biden’s laptop was confirmed to be real after years of being called a ‘conspiracy.’”
So consistent was the messaging, and so similar was the wording, that it seemed like staffers in GOP offices and in Donald Trump’s orbit must have received messaging documents. (Staffers insisted they didn’t get anything.)
