It's Official! Joe Biden Takes Hunter's Disastrous Advice
Despite significant public pressure, internal party deliberations, and troubling poll results indicating that 72 percent of Americans are against his candidacy in the 2024 election, President Joe Biden’s family is reportedly encouraging him to maintain his current course.
According to The New York Times, Biden’s family is urging the president to continue his campaign, with Hunter Biden being one of the most influential advocates for the president’s decision to stay the course.
“One of the strongest voices imploring Mr. Biden to resist pressure to drop out was his son Hunter Biden, whom the president has long leaned on for advice,” said a source familiar with the discussions, who, like others, spoke on condition of anonymity to share internal deliberations. “Hunter Biden wants Americans to see the version of his father that he knows — scrappy and in command of the facts — rather than the stumbling, aging president Americans saw on Thursday night.”
Reports also suggest that the Biden family is blaming campaign personnel for the president’s performance in Thursday night’s debate and calling for their immediate removal. They have focused their scrutiny on longtime allies Anita Dunn, Bob Bauer, and Ron Klain, criticizing various aspects of their debate strategy, including their reliance on data and the president’s physical appearance.
The report states:
Members of Mr. Biden’s family were likewise said to be focused on the president’s staff, including Ms. Dunn, a White House senior adviser, and her husband, Mr. Bauer, the president’s personal attorney, who played Mr. Trump during debate rehearsals.
They questioned why Mr. Klain, the former White House chief of staff who managed the preparations, allowed him to be overloaded with statistics. They were also unhappy that Mr. Biden, who arrived for the debate in Atlanta with a summer tan, was made up to look pale and pallid, according to a source who has been in touch with several family members.
This recent report from the Times comes after NBC's story that Biden planned to seek advice from his family during his visit to Camp David on Sunday, a visit that had been scheduled before Thursday’s debate. Unlike the Joe Biden who visited a Waffle House in Atlanta after the debate, the president reportedly participated in a photo shoot with renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz during his visit to the exclusive presidential retreat on Sunday.
