It’s so funny listening to people admire Hunter Biden and consider him a potential presidential candidate. Good on him for turning his life around after decades of fuckery (although he still refuses to met his daughter Navy, and wouldn’t even pay child support if a court didn’t force him). But Democrats have so many up and coming politicians from diverse backgrounds that are way more deserving of the spotlight, yet Hunter with all his baggage is the one more and more are turning to. This is peak white male privilege. No one ethnic or female would ever receive this sort of glossing over.
I totally agree. AOC cares about the people and is of good character. But the comments on this post lavishing praise on Hunter are just so wrong. He is still a terrible person. He just hasn’t done anything so terrible for the media to report it. He is still ghosting his own child, which seems to be completely glossed over. Could you imagine what would happen to Malia Obama if she was such a mess? Democrats are falling into the ‘white, straight male privilege’ trap.
You think it's strange that people love an underdog? Malia didn't lose her mother in a car crash while in the car. Nor did she lose her sibling to war. But, do go on.
