Following her statement at a hearing that she hoped and prayed her parents would love her half as much as President Biden loves his son Hunter, Democratic lawmaker Rep. Jasmine Crockett was ridiculed online. Republicans should not have pursued an impeachment investigation against Biden, Crockett said, pointing to the lack of evidence supporting the president’s malfeasance. Many commenters challenged Crockett’s definition of love and chastised her rhetorical approach, especially in light of her claimed criminal past and self-destructive actions. Hunter Biden’s international business connections are the subject of the impeachment investigation, and several opponents felt that Crockett’s comments discounted the concerns voiced by House Republicans.
