Hunter Biden has made headlines after launching a scathing attack on several high-profile figures including actor George Clooney, during a recent media blitz. In interviews conducted with Andrew Callaghan and Jamie Harrison, he vehemently criticized Clooney for suggesting that his father, former President Joe Biden, should withdraw from the 2024 race following a poor debate performance. Hunter's remarks were characterized as expletive-laden, emphasizing his frustration over perceived disloyalty from notable Democrats. He stated, "What right do you have to step on a man who’s given 52 years of his f‑‑‑ing life to the service of this country?" according to The Hill, HuffPost, and India Times.

During his extensive interviews, Hunter Biden also contended that the Democratic Party’s lack of loyalty ultimately led to his father’s electoral defeat. He declared, “We lost the last election because we did not remain loyal to the leader of the party,” reiterating sentiments shared on a podcast with former DNC Chair Jamie Harrison. His critiques aimed at other Democratic figures, including David Axelrod and James Carville, were derogatory, questioning their contributions and relevance to the party’s strategies. "The Anita Dunns of the world... who’s made $40 [million], $50 million off the Democratic Party," he stated, according to LA Times, The Hill, and HuffPost.

Furthermore, Hunter Biden did not shy away from addressing his own past issues, confirming his sobriety since June 2019 while maintaining that he has neither brought drugs into the White House nor engaged in illicit activities during his father's presidency. He responded directly to criticisms linking him to controversy, referencing a CNN book co-authored by Jake Tapper that claimed his father’s health was mishandled. Hunter asserted that the idea of a conspiracy surrounding his father's mental state was unfounded, as stated in the interview with Callaghan, according to India Times and LA Times.

The interviews have elicited a significant response from figures within the Democratic establishment. Tommy Vietor, a former Obama administration aide, quipped on X about Hunter’s remarks, suggesting they highlight the insular approach of the Biden family in politics. His fiery declarations seem aimed not only at defending his father's legacy but also recalibrating the ongoing narrative surrounding the Democratic Party's future. Critics within the party have reacted to the strong criticisms levied and whether they reflect a more profound divide before the 2024 elections, according to The Hill, HuffPost, and LA Times.
