In a recent court case involving gun salesman Gordon Cleveland, it was revealed that he proudly embraced the moniker of a 'whale hunter,' a term used to describe his prowess in closing deals for expensive firearms. Cleveland chuckled when the defense attorney for Hunter Biden brought up this nickname, highlighting his confidence in his sales abilities.
The defense team's strategy revolves around the assertion that Cleveland essentially sold a gun to Hunter Biden. Cleveland himself admitted to his colleagues calling him a 'whale hunter,' stating, 'I could sell whatever you had. It’s just what I did.' He further explained that his approach included encouraging customers to consider purchasing more expensive guns, emphasizing their reliability and high quality.
Despite his push for pricier firearms, Cleveland maintained that he would never sell subpar products to his customers. 'I wouldn’t peddle “junk” onto customers,' he affirmed, underscoring his commitment to providing quality firearms to his clientele.
This testimony sheds light on Cleveland's sales tactics and his belief in the superiority of higher-priced guns. The court case continues to unfold as the defense seeks to establish the nature of the transaction between Cleveland and Hunter Biden.
