Is going after Hunter Biden's personal shortcomings 'low rent'? Brandon Darby and Nick Searcy disagree

As Twitchy reported earlier this week, Joe Biden mustered up a sarcastic “Classy” when asked by Fox News’ Peter Doocy if he had any comment about the DNA test showing he’s a grandfather again, now that Hunter Biden has been proved to have knocked up an Arkansas woman while also dating his brother’s widow. Biden made it perfectly clear it was a private family matter and he wouldn’t be addressing it.

ABC News did their best to work some image rehabilitation in a puff piece showing Hunter Biden living his best life (this was before the DNA test results came back). But it’s a fair question: Are questions about Hunter Biden’s personal shortcomings fair game? Brandon Darby says no.

I think going after Biden for his son’s business cronyism is totally fair. I think going after Biden for the consequences of his son’s personal shortcomings is completely low rent. Get mad all you want, that’s what I think.

And don’t go accusing me of trying to be a hall monitor or trying to police what you do. I don’t give two specks of pepper what you do. I simply said how I feel about it.

Actor Nick Searcy had a different take:

I think going after Biden the same way Democrats go after all of us — which is any damn way they please — is totally cool, acceptable, appropriate, and funnier than hell. https://t.co/tvis684OTI

I’m glad you sent this, Nick. I see your point, don’t agree in this case, but I see your point. Have a nice evening, amigo.

Tired of the double standard, Brandon. Also tired of taking shit from prudish NeverTrump scolds huffily protesting the speech of people who ridicule leftists.

Biden lied about even knowing her, that means he was accusing woman of being the liar. This is a fair observation to point out. False in one, false in all. What else did he lie about? Relevant to current events, Old Biden lied on debate stage about what he said seconds before.

You mean like Wolf Blitzer when he made a snide comment about Kellyanne Conway's marriage? Yep, totally agree.

Remember how they loved to trash Palin’s family?

Except when son’s shortcomings are relevant to cronyism allegations, as the idea that a foreign corporation wanted a coke snorter for their board for any reason other than his ability to get his father on the phone is laughable.

The Dems set the gold standard for trying to destroy everyone one and anyone, no matter what ! What goes around , comes around.

One set of rules. They need to learn this one way or the other.

Wait till he’s questioned in a full blown senate hearing!

I pray they nail his corrupt ass to the wall…his pathetic son too…but I’m not hopeful.

Biden’s a corrupt old hack, and his kid is a dog-ass. Crush their spleens.

Game on!

There's no such thing as a "fair fight." The sooner the Republicans learn this, the sooner we can clean up this country.

Come on… big Biden is as guilty or guiltier than kid biden.

Biden stood in front of black crowds & said Republicans were going to put them all back in chains. Biden destroyed reputations of judges for political sport simply over a different constitutional worldview. Biden would give you no political quarter. Offer him none.

This.
Biden called Romney a racist, fer crissakes.
No mercy for this phony cretin. His family is dirty and so is he. Go after them all.

Why aren't we talking about what Biden did as VP? His extortion of Ukraine is the real crime.

— Bob LaRosa (@larosabob) November 23, 2019

Kid pro quo!

It might be low-rent, but we really would like to see Joe Biden acknowledge his new grandchild at least.
