I find it extremely unlikely that nude photos / prostitutes / crack smoking of Trump’s kids would have been handled with such tact

Did you miss [the part][1] in this revelation where “in 2020, requests from both the Trump White House and the Biden campaign were received and honored”?

Removing blatantly violating content isn’t controversial, nor is a member of the concerning party’s staff emailing Twitter asking for a prompt review.

It's a bit different since Trump's kids were all political figures in his nepotistic administration

During the 2016 election I knew some people who shared nude photos of Melania Trump (taken consensually) on Facebook. These photos were swiftly taken down.

There is a crucial difference between individuals sharing photos and blocking a news story from a legitimate news source

Your post specifically mentioned nude photos. You did say "of Trump's kids", admittedly. But I don't see how that merits a difference here.

What is the news story regarding photos of Hunter Biden? That he's naked like the rest of us under his clothes?

I just find it difficult to believe that 4 weeks before the election if Donald Jr’s laptop was found with the same stuff, that the NYT and WAPO wouldn’t be obsessively analyzing it and posting about its “Russian Collusion”.

Let the news come out and let everyone decide for themselves what the value is. Censoring it is the issue

Okay then write that. I was responding to your point about nude photos.

This is unfounded speculation presented as if it is evidence. Stop it.
