Hunter Biden, despite facing numerous challenges, remains fiercely loyal to his father, President Joe Biden.
In a recent, extensive interview with Andrew Callagan on his YouTube channel, Hunter Biden offered insights into various topics, including media personalities like Jake Tapper and the efforts to remove his father from the 2024 election ticket—discussions that the President himself might eschew.
The interview spans over three hours, and you can check it out below:
Hunter had a few pointed remarks about Jake Tapper:
He criticized Tapper, stating, “What influence does Jake Tapper really have? His viewership is the smallest in cable news, and his book? It’s currently tanking on Amazon. His ratings plummeted post-publication, and it felt like a two-week infomercial. It was a cash grab that undermines the very journalism he claims to uphold. He’s got a personal vendetta against me, ranting about how I supposedly orchestrated a cover-up about my dad’s health—who would trust a former crack addict like me?”
Video clip:
Tapper’s book notably lacked medical evidence yet was filled with Democrats scrambling to protect their reputations after a disastrous election cycle that destabilized the party just months before voting day.
Once Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis was made public, Tapper’s book quickly faded from relevance, marking one of the more egregious smear campaigns waged by mainstream media.
Hunter also had strong words for George Clooney and the Obama circle, which he believes contributed to pushing his father out of the race:
F*ck him, f*ck him, f*ck him. And everyone around him.
I don’t have to be f*cking nice. I concur with Quentin Tarantino: George Clooney isn’t a real actor; he’s more of a brand. Sure, he treats his friends well and has a lovely place in Lake Como, but what does that have to do with anything? Why should I care about his opinion? What gives you the right to undermine a man who has dedicated 52 years to serving this country? Clooney, taking out a full-page ad in the New York Times to attack the president during crucial times, is just ridiculous.
Why do Republicans have an edge? Because they stick together. I never asked for blind loyalty; I just wanted people to support what we were doing.
In my lifetime, this administration has been the most successful, surpassing even the Obama and Reagan presidencies. We’ve accomplished more for our shared agenda than any other president, despite having the slimmest majority. Everyone said it was impossible.
And then there’s Clooney, apparently given the green light by the Obama camp to insert his judgment over my father’s leadership. People like David Axelrod and James Carville, who haven’t been relevant in decades, think they can undermine a leader who has achieved historic legislative success and garnered unprecedented voter support.
Some Democrats are quick to claim that the election was rigged, yet the DNC’s analysis fails to address how removing Biden from the ticket affected voter turnout. It’s akin to ignoring the bullet hole when trying to determine how a gunshot victim died.
Party elites refuse to acknowledge their role in derailing any chance Democrats had at winning the election by pushing Biden aside. While Biden was likely to face challenges, the Democratic Party’s decision left Kamala Harris in a no-win scenario, jeopardizing her campaign.
The fallout from sidelining Biden resulted in a significant drop in turnout from his supporters in critical swing states during the 2024 election. The Democratic Party has done little to mend its relationship with Joe Biden’s base, and yet the elites remain in denial, failing to take responsibility.
Hunter Biden’s frustration is palpable, reflecting broader discontent within the Biden family and among supporters. Unless Democrats want to continue their losing streak, rebuilding trust with essential voting demographics is crucial. After all, Joe Biden wasn’t the only casualty of the elites’ decisions in 2024.
