Flashback: Biden Got Angry When Obama Campaign Vetted Hunter Biden

When former president Barack Obama’s campaign vetted Joe Biden during the 2008 presidential race, it also looked into Biden’s son, Hunter, angering the former vice president.

Obama campaign researchers found potential public relations issues with Hunter Biden’s marriage, substance abuse history, and lobbying work, according to the New York Times. “Keep my family out of this,” Joe Biden reportedly snapped. The Obama campaign did not press the issue any further.

Hunter Biden has become an issue for his father’s 2020 campaign due to his appointment to the board of Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company, during the Obama administration. The Ukrainian government dismissed the top prosecutor investigating the company.

    Obama administration wanted to be sure Joe’s family was crooked enough to be included in their circle.

    Yes! And also, maybe even a higher priority, was to make sure Joey’s family was crooked enough for Joey to be blackmailed into obedience.

    Too bad you can’t blackmail somebody into not being stupid.

  2. When you “vet” Biden, it’s now clear to EVERYONE that all kinds of scuzz is in the bucket. Yeah, let’s sell THAT to the American people as our next President. “Ladies and gentlemen, President Scuzz Bucket.”

    Holy crap, Democrats. You’re self-destructing and you don’t even realize it.

  3. So Hunter Biden has had TWO drug offenses? One earlier and one when he was 42 and in the US Navy?

    He always needs a shave too. The Yessir Yourafart Look isn’t a good look for him.
