CNN’s Jennings: Republicans Didn’t Make Hunter Biden into a ‘Complete Scumbag’

CNN’s senior political commentator and Republican political strategist Scott Jennings said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that it was not Republicans “who made Hunter Biden into a complete scumbag on this and other issues.”

Partial transcript as follows:

KASIE HUNT: But Scott Jennings, the President has made being a family man a central part of his political identity.

HUNT: But they have now.

JENNINGS: Oh, what a hero. The polling must have been brutal. The polling must have been brutal.
