It’s not a game, it’s a cult. And Biden is the High Priest of that cult.
They only interfered for Hunter Biden because there was a serious chance of him exposing and screwing up the entire Democratic money laundering operation in Ukraine.
This was also why the Republicans were so insistent on crucifying Hunter, because he was a prominent link between Biden and Ukraine - an operation that the Republicans are left out of.
Returning the favor, the Democrats charged Trump to force the Republicans to back off from the Biden-Ukraine case, which had led to a stalemate for both sides. But now, to defend Biden’s deteriorating poll numbers and potentially losing against Trump, the Democrats pressed forward with Trump’s conviction.
The Republicans are now just responding in kind, but both sides understand that Joe Biden is willing to sacrifice Hunter to save his own electoral campaign.

While I appreciate that there are factions within the US imperial elite, I think you greatly underestimate the extent to which republican interests and donors benefit from project ukraine. The defence and lng majors have benefitted the most from the most maximal aspects of the project (provoking hot war, sabotaging any peace process and blowing up Nordstream). Are you really trying to say that there is no connection between the defence industry and the republican donor base? If so, where is the peace wing of the republican party?
There isn’t one. They just do stupid rhetoric where they would have done project ukraine so that they would have won. I’m sure that around the margins there would be different firms and individuals that are the biggest beneficiaries, but it’s naive and reductive to say that the GOP donor class is “left out”.
Of course Republicans benefit from Ukraine, in fact, the entirety of Biden’s policies have greatly benefited the bourgeois class.
However, it is still not the same as having a money laundering front in Ukraine. The Democrats have basically found a “cheat code” to blatantly launder billions and billions of dollars “legitimately” under the pretext of foreign aid for Ukraine. Just recently, a $100 billion foreign aid bill gave $61 bil to Ukraine - where do you think all those money would end up? A lot of them are earmarked for Biden’s proxies (i.e. the designated companies that Ukraine has to purchase from), as rewards for their loyalty to the House of Biden.
This is also why the Republicans have stalled this exact foreign aid bill for so many months. If the Republicans had really benefited from Project Ukraine, then why did they keep stalling the bill? Shouldn’t it be a bipartisan bill like for funding AIPAC in Israel?
Biden shrewdly tied the bill to Israel as well, forcing the Republicans to choose between angering their Zionist donors, or to give in to the Democrats’ funding for Ukraine. And it wasn’t until a provocation with Iran that Mike Johnson was forced to put the bill on the floor and get the bill passed, because their Zionist donors finally got angry at them for keep stalling the bill.
On the other hand, the best Trump had done during his tenure was giving corporations massive tax cuts, but it is still nowhere close to the hose of dollars that the Biden faction can easily pump out for their donors.
And when you’re donor class, you don’t want to see others getting entire bags of treats while you’re left with the crumbs. Biden is very openly courting the Republican donors and he’s not even hiding it.
The Republicans have been racking up Ls after Ls at this point. This most recent action against Hunter Biden is just them retaliating against the conviction against Trump, knowing full well that Biden is much much more ruthless than that.
