Jake Tapper says Hunter Biden is ‘sleazy’

Jake Tapper had numerous interviews with Joe Biden over the years, but not once did he ever say anything negative to Joe Biden’s face about his son.

While Tapper has not addressed Hunter directly with Biden, he has opened up about his real feelings about the former first son.

Criminal referrals

In addition to the many disgusting exploits of Hunter Biden, he found himself in trouble for tax evasion, illegal gun ownership, and having allegedly lied before Congress.

After Biden testified before Congress, the leaders of the House Oversight and Accountability, Judiciary and Ways and Means committees sent a letter to the Justice Department requesting the prosecution of Hunter Biden for having lied to Congress.

Then-attorney for Hunter Biden, Abbe Lowell, said the referral was “nothing more than a desperate attempt by Republicans to twist Hunter’s testimony so they can distract from their failed impeachment inquiry and interfere with his trial.”

Joe Biden, of course, accused the Republicans of targeting Hunter to get to Joe.

The pardon

Just as Joe Biden was walking out the door, he issued a stack of pardons, which included pre-emptive pardons for J6 investigators in Congress and numerous family members, including Hunter Biden and his brother, James.

Biden claimed that Hunter had been “singled out” by the GOP, with White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre stating, "This is why the president took this action.”

They continued to make Hunter out to be a good guy who just got some bad breaks.

Finally, Jake Tapper is shattering that image.

Sleazy

As I noted above, Tapper has plenty of opportunities to ask Joe Biden about Hunter to his face, but he never did. Now, however, he is opening up about his real feelings about Hunter.

During Tapper’s media tour to promote “Original Sin,” Tapper, on Hunter, stated, “It’s bizarre because I think he is provably, demonstrably, unethical, sleazy and prone to horrible decisions.”

He later added, “Just look at the record: after his brother died, he cheated on his wife with his brother’s widow and then got her addicted to crack. That’s just one thing I could say. I don’t have a lot of personal regard for him … I barely have ever met him. I’ve met him like once or twice.”

So, again, why not confront Biden about his rather than allowing Biden to defend Hunter and portray him as a good person who just got some bad breaks? Hunter Biden, for use of another term, is scum. He is a lowlife who exploited being Joe Biden’s son, and he made millions for doing so. I, for one, would have loved to have hear Tapper call Hunter Biden “sleazy” to Joe Biden’s face.
