Literally, to spontaneously combust.
I don't have a whole lot more to say - as I'm speechless on this one - other than to say that sites like this may be the only thing standing between me and a padded room.

(11,738 posts)While I disagree with nepotism, especially in the upper echelons of power, to suddenly have an issue with Hunter Biden who was already an attorney at a well established firm, who apparently had some chops for anti-corruption practice, to get on a board with seemingly no influence from his father other than sharing the last name, seems especially stupid considering that Trump has turned the White House into the Beverly Hillbilies mansion with his unqualified offspring and son in law who couldn't even pass a background check without lying about it 47 times.
Nepotism is as American as Apple Pie. Shouldn't be, but it is.
