Joe and Hunter Biden expect the public to take their denials at face value.
Begin with the premise that there's no good way for presidential candidate Joe Biden to address the issues that arose from his son Hunter's work for Burisma Holdings.
The former vice president isn't going to throw his son under the bus, and Hunter can't resign from his position as a Biden offspring.
Joe Biden can't contradict his son and admit that Hunter shouldn't have taken the position on the company board.
Biden has to insist, as he did in a recent interview with NPR, that "Nobody warned me about a potential conflict of interest. Nobody warned me about that. I never, never heard that once at all." Never mind that Hunter Biden's role at Burisma was asked about in the White House press briefing and the State Department press briefing.
Joe Biden and Hunter Biden insist they never discussed Burisma or its interests with each other, but we have no way to prove that one way or another.
Getting lucrative gigs in large part because he was Joe Biden's son is pretty much what Hunter Biden has done with his adult life after law school - at the biggest bank in Delaware, at a D.C. lobbying firm, at a New York hedge fund he purchased with his uncle, and so on.
