Hunter Biden was found guilty on three charges, but experts believe it may not necessarily harm his father, Joe Biden's, election prospects. While the verdict initially seemed unfavorable to Biden's candidacy, three American experts or scholars pointed out that the ruling actually undermines Trump and the Republican Party's accusations of 'judicial pursuit, political witch hunts, and judicial manipulation.' Trump was previously convicted on 34 charges related to hush money payments, and the subsequent outcome involving Hunter Biden has unexpectedly subdued Republican reaction, reinforcing the notion that the verdict weakens the party's narrative of 'judiciary as a political weapon for Biden.'
