As it stands right now, there's not really any reason for Biden to start denying anything because... There's not truly anything there, yet. All it'd do is draw attention to it.

It'd be like if I started posting on here "Joe Biden eats babies," and suddenly the Biden campaign put out a statement saying he doesn't eat babies. People are suddenly gonna be like "Wait, who said he ate babies? What's that about?"

It's giving undeserved attention to it.

Isn't that kind of a bad argument though?

I mean, do you think if Trump when pressed about not denouncing White Supremacists refused to confirm or deny if he does under the grounds of "not wanting to draw attention to White Supremacists" would fly?

I mean, I think you are being mighty naive with that argument to think that Trump isn't already going to bring this stuff up at the debate already and draw attention to it on the main stage in front of America.

But, hey, maybe I am being naive?

Just think that Biden is being dumb not to deny it at least, and the only reason I can think that he would not just outright unequivocally deny it is that he believes there is a possibility that the laptop hard drive is POSSIBLY legit. And that he doesn't want to get caught in a lie if he goes that route and make it even worse.

The acting like it doesn't exist isn't going to work too well when the opponent is literally Donald Trump.

I am not saying the source possibly wasn't dubious. But, a dubious source doesn't mean the content itself is not legit. Even the biggest scumbag could have legitimate information.

Chris knows this of course already. Just because scum says something in mafia doesn't mean what they said wasn't true. You can doubt the source, but it is only with further information that you can say for sure if it was misinformation or actually true.

You can file it away as I don't know, and I have reasons to not have an opinion either way due to the source. But, the outright denying and attacking the content itself without anything to disprove it is a little questionable here.

Again though, I don't see anything in this content that means the Joe did anything wrong or even puts him in a bad light here. So, it doesn't affect my vote even in the slightest. I just don't get the defense force to something that the man himself hasn't even denied.
