HUNTER BIDEN'S CHINESE FRIENDS DON'T SEEM PARTICULARLY SINISTER

And now Breitbart gets in on the act.
Newly obtained emails from a Hunter Biden business partner lay out in detail how the Vice President’s son and his colleagues used their access to the Obama-Biden administration to arrange private meetings for potential foreign clients and investors at the highest levels in the White House. These never-before-revealed emails outline how a delegation of Chinese investors and Communist Party officials managed to secure a private, off-the-books meeting with then-Vice President Joe Biden.
Omigod! Who are these sinister people?
... on November 5, 2011, one of [Hunter Biden partner Devon] Archer’s business contacts forwarded him an email teasing an opportunity to gain “potentially outstanding new clients” by helping to arrange White House meetings for a group of Chinese executives and government officials. The group was the China Entrepreneur Club (CEC) and the delegation included Chinese billionaires, Chinese Communist Party loyalists, and at least one “respected diplomat” from Beijing....

The Obama-Biden Administration archives reveal that this Chinese delegation did indeed visit the White House on November 14, 2011, and enjoyed high-level access.
Yes, this meeting was so shameful that it was placed in the public record for posterity.

The Breitbart story claims that Joe Biden personally met with the delegation, although White House records don't say so. However:
In an obscure document listing the CEC members’ biographies, CEC Secretary General Maggie Cheng alleges that she facilitated the CEC delegation meetings in Washington in 2011 and boasts of the Washington establishment figures that CEC met with. The first name she dropped was that of Vice President Joe Biden.
The document does say that. It also says that members of the China Entrepreneurs Club met with then-British prime minister David Cameron (which is true, and there was a press release announcing the meeting, as well as then-French president Francois Hollande -- and here's Hollande addressing the group in 2015.



Also, here's Canada's prime minister, Justin Trudeau, at the China Entrepreneurs Club World Forum in 2016:



The man seated next to Trudeau in that photo is the chairman of the China Entrepreneur Club -- Jack Ma, one of China's richest men, the co-founder of the e-commerce giant Alibaba.

And who's taking a meeting with Ma in the clip below? A clip filmed just days before the inauguration of Donald Trump in January 2017? Is it someone plotting with Ma to undermine the Trump presidency before it even began?

No, it's Donald Trump himself:



Did Hunter Biden facilitate a meeting with father for members of this group? It's not clear. But if Joe Biden met with them, it's not a scandal.
