Hunter Biden has been an outspoken critic of both President Donald Trump s administration and the Democratic Party in recent months.Hunter Biden isn’t holding back with regard to what he believes is President Donald Trump’s most wide-reaching foreign policy decision in his second term to date. In a Substack interview with Mediaite journalist Tommy Christopher last week that clocked in at over three hours, the son of former President Joe Biden deemed the current state of the Trump administration a “nightmare scenario.”“We’re not sliding into autocracy. We’re right in the middle of it,” he said, noting that Trump “ignores court orders” and “acts unconstitutionally, but in a way that there’s no redress for it.” Hunter Biden also suggested the repercussions of Trump’s decision to shutter the US Agency for International Development (USAID) would continue to be felt for generations, pointing to a July study published by The Lancet medical journal that forecasted “a staggering number of avoidable deaths” by 2030 as a result of its closing. “I don’t believe that it was constitutional in the way in which he ended USAID, which I think is going to have a greater impact of any of the foreign policy decisions that he’s made so far in terms of long-term impact,” he said. “Fourteen million people that otherwise would have led a healthy life because of the generosity of the American people will die within the next five years.”Hunter Biden has been an outspoken critic of both President Donald Trump s administration and the Democratic Party in recent months.The Trump administration began dismantling USAID in March. The agency officially closed for good in July, and what remained of its programs were absorbed by the US State Department. On the final day of USAID’s operation as an independent agency, former Presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush both heavily criticized its defunding in a prerecorded video, parts of which were shared with The Associated Press. While Joe Biden has maintained a low profile since leaving office, Hunter Biden has been an outspoken critic of the Trump administration in recent months. He’s also aired grievances regarding prominent members of the Democratic Party, who he believes unfairly pressured his father into dropping out of the 2024 presidential race. In an interview with ABC News journalist Jonathan Karl for his new book, “Retribution: Donald Trump and the Campaign That Changed America,” Hunter Biden singled out Obama for shepherding the elder Biden off-stage at a Hollywood fundraiser in June 2024.“I knew that that was going to be a meme,” he recalled, in an excerpt of the book published by Axios last week. “That really, really, really, really pissed me off.”Related...Reporter Calmly Schools Trump Official Who Melted Down Over His Personal Insults Not Making It To PrintTrump Ripped For Bragging About Passing Dementia TestTensions Between US And Russia Deepen As Trump s Treasury Secretary Hits Out At Propagandist Envoy
