partners "twenty times", Sunshine?
What was said was there were "maybe 20 times" when Joe Biden happened to call his son while a meeting was going on.
Unlike you (apparently) I've actually read the transcript...
...the entire transcript, not the redacted, self-serving version Comer
put up on the Oversight Committee's website.
<https://oversight.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Devon-Archer-Transcript.pdf>
Starting on page 120:
'Mr. Goldman:
And you -- to your knowledge, you know, none of the times that you would ever overhear Vice President Biden calling Hunter was to -- was with the purpose of discussing business with him.
[Note: Joe Biden calling his son, not his son calling him]
Archer:
It was, yeah, not related to commercial business, politics, that kind of stuff.'
And moving on specifically to the those "twenty" calls:
'Goldman (Q):
I want to come back -- there was a lot of conversation in the
Republicans' hours of questioning about these phone calls --
...
Q: During those calls -- let's start with the one in Paris.
Archer(A) Sure.
Q: -- did Joe Biden -- was Joe Biden calling Hunter Biden? Was Hunter
Biden calling Joe Biden?
A: I believe on the Paris, it was he called Hunter. He called Hunter.
...
Q: -- was there any discussion of Hunter Biden's business in Paris or
this business meeting that they were having?
A: No
Q: But beyond cap tables, there wasn't any conversation of "you need to
help me with this business I have with these people," or, "you need to
take this action or that action to help these business partners of mine."
A: Correct.
Q: That never happened.
A: That did not happen.
...
Q: Did he [Joe Biden] take any official action on behalf of BHR?
A: No.
Q Was he ever asked to take an official action on behalf of BHR?
A: No.
Q: So is it fair to say that these conversations that my Republican colleagues asked you about where Hunter Biden had Joe Biden on the phone around business partners, that there was nothing in those conversations beyond the exchange of pleasantries?
A: That is correct.'

Well, I can tell you because you apparently did not read ALL of the transcript (p. 51):
20 Q Not necessarily investors but with people who Hunter Biden was trying to 21 either get business with or make contacts with or add value to?
22 A In my 10 -- in my whole partnership, maybe 20 times.
23 Q And during those 20 times, did Hunter Biden ever place his dad on
24 speakerphone?
25 A Yes.

That's not true. Businesses pay lots of taxes, whether they have income or not, some states have taxes on business gross receipts, they pay real estate
taxes, permit fees, social security taxes. But it's
all irrelevant, because whatever costs a business incurs, whether they have a
profit or not, they get passed
along to consumers, those that buy their products or services. So again, if BestBuy has to pay for two cop cars to sit around while they fix a parking lot entrance, that cost gets added to all their expenses, just like rent, cost of goods and salaries. Why can't Democrats understand
even the most basic economics?
And ultimately, most businesses, like the ones impacted by crazy bs
cop work, do pay taxes on income. I drive past one small business after another around here, those owners are paying income tax, you libs like
to sock it to them, pretending that they are the rich.
Now, since trumps debt-busting tax breaks for the rich an powerful,
businesses pay less than they did before. The GOP claimed that
reducing their tax burden will lead them to hire more employees.
It worked, unemployment is at record lows, just ask Old Joe, he's bragging about it.
Which is bogus reasoning, and has been shown to be bogus - instead
companies used it to buy back stock or boost their dividends
neither of which helped the economy.
So Old Joe is lying when he claims how great the economy is doing?
I hope voters keep that in mind. BTW, he sure is a winner. I see in Maui he told a room full of fire survivors that he knows what it's like to lose a
home. Once upon a time, they had a house fire and he almost lost Jill,
his dog and his corvette. Turns out it was a small kitchen fire, it was confined to the kitchen and it was over in 20 minutes. Maybe he can
turn blue HI red?
One might sometimes wonder if the entire secondary market in
business equity is flawed - particularly when leveraged using
derivitives.
Of course it is to lib socialists.Someone wrote that it is better to call Bidenomics, Bidencomics.
