In an explosive interview with Channel 5, Hunter Biden did not hold back his anger towards George Clooney, who had suggested that Joe Biden lacked the mental acuity to effectively campaign for the presidency in 2024. This criticism was coupled with Clooney's earlier opinion piece in which he argued for Biden to step aside for new Democratic leadership, a call that ultimately resulted in Biden’s decision to withdraw from the race in favor of Vice President Kamala Harris.
Hunter argued that Clooney's assessment was unfounded and based on his observed “exaggerated” frailty during a brief encounter at a fundraising event. Responding to suggestions about his father's poor debate performance against Donald Trump, Hunter attributed Biden's struggles to a demanding travel schedule and medication that affected his alertness. He expressed frustration at Clooney for interjecting in the election narrative, dismissively questioning the actor’s qualifications to speak on the matter.
Additionally, Hunter addressed media reports that he was deeply involved in his father's administration during a tumultuous period. He refuted claims that he frequented the White House in his father's last months, clarifying that he only spent a limited time there. His comments followed his father's controversial pardon of him for felony charges.
George Clooney’s influence in the Democratic Party and his wife's ties to legal efforts against Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu were highlighted as potential motivations for his public stance against the Bidens. The fallout from the Biden family’s scandals, including Hunter’s legal troubles, remains a contentious topic as the party looks towards the future following a challenging election cycle.
The ongoing speculation regarding Joe Biden's health, including a recent cancer diagnosis, continues to fuel debate over his previous decision to step back from political life altogether.
