According to an Axios report, President Joe Biden is privately very angry and saddened over son Hunter Biden’s mounting legal troubles — Joe even allegedly acknowledges the 2020 election exacerbated Hunter’s problems.

People close to the President are reporting mood shifts when Joe is confronted with Hunter news. Additionally, Hunter is acknowledging the toll his legal dramas are having on his father.

“What they’re trying to do is they’re trying to kill me, knowing that it will be a pain greater than my father could be able to handle — and so therefore destroying a presidency in that way,” Hunter told the musician Moby in a podcast released last week.

From Axios:

Why it matters: For Biden — who privately has expressed guilt over Hunter’s ongoing legal and political fights — the next year will be emotionally fraught as Hunter faces new criminal charges and will be at the center of the Republican-led impeachment inquiry.

  • The 81-year-old president has suggested to close associates that if he hadn’t run in 2020, Hunter wouldn’t be facing criminal prosecutions or be the target of daily stories by conservative media — all while trying to stay sober and rebuild his life.

The ongoing criminal investigation into Hunter Biden has strained President Biden’s relationship with his attorney general, Merrick Garland, who appointed a special counselin August to oversee the federal investigation into Hunter after the prosecutor requested that status.

  • Only a few long-serving aides feel free to discuss Hunter’s situation with the president, and only at certain moments — knowing that it can prompt both fury and dejection.
