Hunter Biden's Dad

 Friday, June 14th, 2024

My Dear America:

I can't even imagine the pain and suffering that Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden and the rest of the Biden family are going through right now.  

Lets face facts.  There have been times in the lives of many families when individuals screwed up.  Hunter Biden certainly screwed up.  There is no doubt about that.  He took advantage of his high profile father's name at times and made plenty of money as a result.  Hunter has pissed away more money than most of us will ever get a chance to earn in our lifetime.  He admittedly was a serious drug addict, at times in his life but all indications are that he has been clean and sober for a considerable length of time now.

Good for you, Hunter.  You cleaned up your act and you admitted at least some of your indiscretions.  I suppose you thought that now that you have your act together that you were OK.  You were in the clear.  You were on the right path.

I hope for Hunter's sake that he is on the right path and will continue to travel through life on the right path.  Certainly, he is not the first child of a Presidential family who was a Screwup.  Both Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter had some problem kids.  But lucky for those kids the political climate back in those days was more forgiving and a hell of a lot more compassionate. 

That is not the case these days.  Compassion in today's Republican Party seems to be in short supply when it comes to Democrats.  Only Poor Donald and his family seem to be worthy of compassion.  Fairness seems to be a quality that is hard to come by in the MAGA Republican Party these days.  Certainly Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger know that.  They wandered off the MAGA Reservation and lost their seats in Congress because they wanted to live in the real world not in MAGA World where Black is White and Lies are Truth.  

Many of us who live in the real world find it hard these days when we see upside down flags at the homes of Supreme Court Justices and mobs of Insurrectionists who stormed the Capitol labeled as heroes.

What the Hell is going on here is something we would like to know.

We watch in horror as nearly every Republican in Congress, (Many of Whom Ran for their lives on January 6th, 2021) bend the knee and kiss the ass of Donald Trump in the shadow of The Nations Capitol where Donald sent his MAGA Mad Dogs to ransack the place back on January 6th.

Although Trump is now a Certified Convicted Felon that seems to mean nothing to the Mad King's followers.  Even Mitch McConnell is following in line with the Presumptive Republican Nominee of his party for President even though he could stand up and tell the truth about what he really thinks of Trump.

Gutless Phonys like Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz who back in 2016 were Ripping Donald a new one on the campaign trail now fawn over the Fuhrer like he is their best friend.

JD Vance, who derided Trump as a wannabe Hitler back in the day now begs Donald to consider him for his Vice President with a disgusting promise not to do what Mike Pence did on January 6th.  JD will as Vice President deny certification of the election if Trump loses and tries what he failed to do because of Pence on January 6th the last time out.  I guess JD is okay with Trump becoming Hitler this time as long as he can be Himmler in the Trump Reich.

Pretty sick stuff and if things go as Trump Plans and he is able to implement his 2025 Plans we Democrats had better batten down the hatches.

But getting back to Hunter Biden and Joe Biden.  

Hunter Biden would never have been charged for checking off a box that indicated that he was not under the influence of drugs when he bought a gun if his name wasn't Biden.  We all know that.  Certainly the Republicans know that. How many people have ever been charged with this bullshit charge in the history of the United States.  But he was charged and a Jury found him guilty.  So now there will be consequences.  We can only hope that the judge will be someone who is compassionate and realistic about this Trumped up charge.  

I cannot hope to understand what Joe and Jill Biden and the rest of the Biden family are going through thanks to Hunter Biden's Reckless Life.  Like all Parents we all know that when our children are going through rough times we are going through rough times too.  

Joe Biden literally has the weight of a crazy, screwed up world on his shoulders.  He didn't need to have Hunter's fate thrown at him now but the fates have not always been kind to Family man Joe Biden and his son, Hunter.  Joe and Hunter lost Hunter's mother and sister in a car accident literally just before Joe Biden entered the Senate.  Hunter and his Brother Beau were in the accident and were lucky to recover.  Joe lost his son and Hunter lost his brother to cancer.

Certainly, I think as we seem to be headed toward at least the outside possibility of a Certified Nazi Regime running the United States Government in the near future maybe the fate of Hunter Biden is not the most important thing to be thinking about.  

I know that at this terrible time for Biden's family his former friends in the Senate like Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell cannot be counted on to be compassionate.  I just hope that Joe can hold up under the strain of this heartbreaking situation.  I am not sure that he should be debating with Trump in the near future because although Trump was also recently convicted of a Felony Trump is a man without a shred of Compassion or caring regarding anyone other than himself.  Remember back to the debate with Hillary Clinton when Trump brought in several former girlfriends of Bill Clinton and sat them in the front row.  

It might be wise for Joe Biden to announce that he is not going to debate Trump because he does not want to normalize Trump's Abnormal Campaign and avoid whatever terrible things Trump may try to do to Joe and Hunter on the Debate Stage.

Biden may take some flak for this but I think it is time that he not only takes Care of the United States of America but also takes care of himself and his family and doesn't set himself or Hunter up to be verbally Crucified by a Self Centered Bully like Donald Trump.

Sincerely Yours
