    Again, that’s assuming that everything came off the laptop and that the laptop was actually abandoned. We’ve never gotten the full story on that. The laptop could have been Hunter Biden’s, but wasn’t abandoned. It could have just had the data copied off of it when the person was working on it. Or the shop could have told Hunter that the laptop was a loss and that they wiped it.

    In either of these cases, the data wouldn’t be the shop’s to give away and definitely wouldn’t be Rudy’s to parade on national TV. And that still doesn’t factor in that the laptop might not have been Hunter’s in the first place, but could have been loaded with data from Hunter (obtained via illicit means) in an effort to make it look like Hunter’s laptop.

    So far, we’ve gotten the right’s narrative about the laptop’s origins. This doesn’t mean that it’s the truth.

      You are just making up a conspiracy theory with 0 evidence. Don’t be surprised that I’m dismissing it. We could spend all day saying “well what if…”
