Hunter Biden Criticizes Democrats, Media Following 2024 Election Defeat

Hunter Biden sharply criticized prominent Democrats and media figures in a lengthy and profanity-laden interview, blaming them for undermining his father, President Joe Biden's 2024 reelection campaign. He explained that his father's poor debate performance against President Donald Trump was partly due to exhaustion and Ambien use amid a grueling travel schedule, disputing narratives that questioned Biden's fitness. Hunter targeted George Clooney, who publicly called for Biden to drop out, dismissing him as a 'brand' rather than a legitimate actor or political voice. He also condemned Democratic operatives like David Axelrod and media personalities such as Jake Tapper and the 'Pod Save America' hosts, accusing them of arrogance and sabotaging his father's campaign. Responses from some Democrats, including former Obama aide Tommy Vietor, framed Hunter's remarks as emblematic of a self-centered political approach that contributed to the party's electoral losses. Overall, Hunter expressed fierce loyalty to his father while denouncing those he sees as responsible for destabilizing the Democratic Party and damaging Joe Biden's presidency.
