On Thursday, White House press secretary Jen Psaki provided even more spin on the story of Hunter Biden’s art sales. Earlier this month Psaki told reporters that the identities of any buyers would not be known to Hunter or his father, the president. Then these kinds of reports started to drop:

After that it was spin time at the presser:

“Child”? Please.
The Washington Examiner’s Byron York summed up what the Biden White House hopes everybody is thinking:
The White House's tortured case that Hunter Biden can talk to prospective art buyers, never discuss sales, leave it to the gallery to protect everyone's ethics, collect the money, and nobody will ever know who did what. From today's WH briefing: pic.twitter.com/RtxM6xYxmg

Well, who wouldn’t be convinced by that ironclad guarantee of ethical purity?
No way any son of a Republican President could get away with this. The MSM is a joke. https://t.co/xrMwnmXhgp

It helps that the media will turn a blind eye.

At the briefing, Psaki called it Hunter Biden’s “profession,” which has apparently replaced “lawyer” or “Burisma board member.”
I can't wait for Hunter Biden's paintings to go on sale in 2024. I'm thinking they'll be worth about 50 cents by then. https://t.co/rvJ5PR1j6e

They’d be worth less than 50 cents now if he wasn’t the son of the president.
Wow. I remember when stores stopped carrying #Ivanka’s clothes. I liked those clothes. https://t.co/UtrURwDglz

Can you imagine the 24/7 freakout if Trump were in office and one of his children suddenly had a high-paying art career?
