Last week President Trump asked the salient question, where’s Hunter Biden? Despite being at the center of a maelstrom, Hunter Biden was nowhere to be found.
Until today.
And if this morning’s interview on ABC is any indication, Hunter probably should’ve stayed hidden.
Tonight is another Democrat debate. And while Team Biden has already sent out a stern warning demanding that no Democrat candidate dare bring up Hunter and his get-rich-quick-off-of-Daddy’s-name schemes, Hunter himself tossed so much mud on his father by doing this interview to pretty much render the warning useless.
I’m thinking Team Biden will now have to do some damage control to control the damage done by Hunter’s damage control.

Hunter Biden admits he used his father’s office for personal gain:
“It is impossible for me to be on any boards without saying that I’m the son of the vice president of the United States — lots of things would not happen in my life if my name wasn’t Biden.”

If it was the Biden Campaign’s idea to have Hunter Biden go on Good Morning America, they’re as dumb as their candidate.
Naturally Hunter portrays his profiting off of his father’s position as a “conspiracy theory” that has been “completely debunked by everyone.”
So at least he had enough sense to use the Biden Campaign’s approved talking points.
But other than that, this interview did Joe no favors.
Hunter on why he was qualified to serve on the board of a Ukranian natural gas company: "I was vice chairman of the board of Amtrak for five years, I was the chairman of the board of the U.N. World Food Program. I was a lawyer." pic.twitter.com/ubhtNfLwUO— Tom Elliott (@tomselliott) October 15, 2019
Funny, isn’t it? The son of the US Senator who was the biggest promoter of funding for Amtrak was the vice chairman of the board for Amtrak. By the way, Hunter stepped down from Amtrak when Daddy became Vice President. Wonder why? Could it be that he knew it would be harder to avoid the problematic nature of his appointment?
Maybe that’s why Hunter started exploiting his father’s name and position in other countries rather than here in the US.
Using his position at Amtrak (no doubt thanks to Daddy) as “proof” that he was qualified to be on the board of a natural gas company in Ukraine isn’t the “so there” Hunter thinks it is.

Yeah. This interview is going to be a huge help.
Way to come off combative and defensive, there Hunter.
Snapping at reporters during interviews must be the Biden DNA.
I’m going to go out on a limb and say this interview didn’t do Dad any favors.
Which is really a shame since Dad has done so many favors for Hunter.
