I know you like to split hairs to see how many angels can dance on the top of a well-split one, but consider this: If Hunter is eventually indicted and convicted for participating in an influence-peddling scheme that benefited Joe, as he well should be, both would be participants or co-conspirators in public corruption. Whether Hunter participated in politics is irrelevant. The distinction you make is baseless. And even if it had a basis in logic and fact (it doesn't), influence peddling is inherently a political crime but it takes only one politician to commit it or to conspire with someone else, even non-politicvians, to commit it.
