By all accounts, Beau Biden, President Biden's oldest son, was a good man. He was a war veteran, having served in Iraq in the Army National Guard. He was an elected official, having been the Attorney General of the great state of Delaware, and had ambitions to be Governor. He was a family man, married to Hallie Biden from 2002 until his death due to brain cancer in 2015.
If you want to read more about Beau's Legacy, here's several sources:
And, while his brother was dying, Hunter Biden was serving as a Board Member of Ukraine's Burisma Holdings, making upwards of $50,000 a month doing...
Doing...
If you look at Hunter's resume, he was a board member and consultant to multiple international corporations for most of his career. Most of those appointments, it could be argued, were the direct result of nepotism. Many of those positions could not be applied for by the general public.
Now I don't want to be accused of being a partisan hack, we are a Libertarian-leaning publication here at Beacon of Speech, but we aren't fans of Hunter Biden at all. Yet even Hunter Biden's defenders in the press admit: "Unfortunately, Hunter Biden seems a lot like somebody whose primary profession is being Joe Biden’s son."
So fast forward to today, as Joe Biden fights for his political life, what advice do you THINK Hunter Biden is giving his Dad moving forward? I speculate that Hunter wants to fight. Do you really think he's going to get any jobs in a Kamala Harris Administration?
Uh no.
The day Joe's career ends, Hunter's career ends. Hope he has some money in the bank.
If Beau was alive today, what advice do you think that he'd be giving his Dad?
Probably something along the lines of: Duty. Honor. Country.
My Grandfather was a World War II Veteran and he rarely spoke of the horrors of war. But during the last year of his life, when referencing war, he mistakenly thought that my Uncle, who fought in Vietnam, was dead.
My Uncle is still very much alive.
What does that have to do with anything? President Biden has repeatedly, and mistakenly, stated Beau died in Iraq. I don't think the president had any malice or intent to lie in stating that his son died in Iraq, he didn't make the statement for political gain. Instead, I think it's just another piece of evidence that the president is in the throngs of cognitive decline.
