Most independents see both the Biden and Trump families as corrupt.
The idea that Biden is corrupt is largely rooted in the actions of his son, Hunter. Hunter Biden worked as a consultant for a period that overlapped with Joe Biden’s service as vice president, work that included foreign companies and interests. Since taking the majority in the House in January, Republicans have been digging into Hunter Biden’s finances with an eye toward linking his business activity directly to the president.
Likely as a result of coverage of that agreement, most Americans — and half of Democrats — think Hunter Biden failed to meet tax filing deadlines. About 6 in 10 Americans also think that Hunter Biden traded on his family name and proximity to power to line up multimillion-dollar business deals. More Republicans think Hunter Biden traded on his name than think he failed to pay taxes on time; among Democrats, fewer do.
Having Americans see Biden as corrupt, fairly or not, is obviously one of the intentions of chatter about impeachment. Even to talk about impeachment as a necessary response to the investigation is to elevate the perceived seriousness of the allegations … whatever those allegations end up being. When asked to evaluate whether the Biden or Trump families were corrupt, a majority said that the Trump clan was. Just under half of Americans said the same of the Bidens, though among independents the figures were about even.
