Comer says? So far the track record of "Comer says" is pretty dismal.

Note, they always say "Biden Family." They never say "Joe Biden." They never say "Joe Biden" because they're always talking about people not named "Joe Biden." Show. Me. The. Money.
It doesn't matter if Hunter kept all the money from these bribes. They're still bribes.
Was Hunter Biden a government official?
he/him
we all just have to live through it,
holding each other’s hands.

No, but they're still paying the Vice President's son, daughter, brother, and other family members huge amounts of money that the Bidens attempted to conceal with shell companies. Think of it this way. What if the Russians paid Don Jr. $10 million for no discernible service other than Don Jr. demonstrating he had access to Don Sr. That would still be a bribe in that case, right? Trump actually has a hotel business in which case you viewed a good deal on a hotel was reason enough to impeach. The "Biden brand," is nothing more than demonstrating that you have access to the Big Guy. And the partisan DOJ has been obstructing justice the entire time on this congressional investigation.

And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

Trump was actually selling a product. The Biden's were selling nothing but "influence of the Big Guy." But yeah, American foreign policy was sold at a rather cheap rate.

Remind me again what the product was that was being sold, with the more than 100 foreign government gifts that him and his family hid from mandated disclosures?

Trump has had a hotel, celebrity, and casino brand that long precedes his entry into politics. Unlike most of Washington, Trump held a job in the real world prior to running for office. The Trump family is held to a far higher standard by the DOJ than establishment Republicans, let alone Democrats.

What was the $10 million and $20 million from the superchairman for? Does the Biden family have a hotel or celebrity line?

So... the product for the foreign government gifts that him and his family hid from mandated disclosures was his celebrity, as President? Agreed.

Trump’s Income:

2015 – Negative 31.7 million
2016 – Negative 32.2 million
2017 – Negative 12.8 million
2018 – Positive 24.4 million

I wonder what happened in 2017 in Trump’s bankruptcy-ridden negative net income life that would account for a sudden reversal of his fortunes?

Probably innovated a revolutionary new product, or something.

Unlike Joe Biden's track record of claiming over and over again that he never spoke with Hunter, Jim, or any family about his business dealings? Or like the track record of the DOJ and saying that the laptop was a Russian misinformation fabrication and going on to suppress the story on Facebook and Twitter?

Trump took advantage of bad tax laws enacted by Democrats in a legal way. I don't hold that against him. Hunter Biden paid no taxes on his influence pedaling scheme. And you know that Joe Biden has been enriched by Hunter's scheme for the same reason. There's no way Joe made his net worth what it is today through a congressional salary. But you don't care if the Biden's cheat tax law or do quid pro quo's with the CCP. As long as Biden keeps the border open, the welfare flowing, and the debt skyrocketing along with our taxes, who cares about Hunter Biden, right?

If only Joe Biden had released his tax returns, like every normal President, and we could see exactly how he got the net worth he has today.

That'd be wild.

ETA: For fun, I took the salary for each year Biden was a senator, and adjusted to inflation, and for his time in the Senate, he was paid (in 2023 equivalent) over $10 million. I chose the wrong line of work.
