Donald Trump Gives Hunter Biden’s Presidential Chances a Hilarious Review [WATCH]

President Donald Trump took aim at several Democratic figures during an Oval Office event on Thursday, using a question about Hunter Biden’s potential political future to criticize both the president’s son and a pair of Democratic Senate candidates, as reported by Red State.

Trump was speaking with reporters during an event highlighting the administration’s new coal-energy initiative when Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy asked about Hunter Biden’s recent social media activity and comments suggesting he could consider a presidential run in 2028.

“Hunter Biden. He’s on social media now, and he has suggested ­— maybe joking, I don’t know — that he could run for president in 2028. How would he do, Hunter Biden, in a 2028 Democratic primary?” Doocy asked.

Trump responded by questioning whether past conduct still matters in Democratic politics.

“You would think that, you know, past is something to do with winning an election, and I would say his past is not the greatest,” Trump said.

The president then compared Hunter Biden to other Democrats who have recently drawn attention on the campaign trail.

“Um, I’m not gonna say bad [things],” Trump said.

“I’m sure, you know, hey, if the guy from Maine can do well, I guess Hunter could do well, too, ’cause the guy from Maine is a basket case, and I would say worse than him is the one from Texas, that looks like Alfred E. Neuman.”

“I would say that if he can do, well, maybe Hunter can do well. I’m not sure, It would be pretty close as far as I’m concerned.”

Trump’s comments appeared to reference Maine Democratic Senate nominee Graham Platner and Texas Democratic Senate nominee James Talarico.

The exchange came as Hunter Biden has become increasingly active on social media, where he has posted commentary about current political events and members of the Trump administration.

On June 3, Hunter Biden posted a message on X questioning Trump’s public schedule and referencing media coverage of former First Lady Jill Biden.

“Trump hasn’t made a public appearance in 8 days. This after an unscheduled visit to the hospital- because he ‘likes getting check-ups.’ Thank God Jake Tapper (or as I like to call him- the Brick Tamland of his generation) is on the case, hunting down clues in a book about my mom’s experience as First Lady four years ago.”

The post echoed claims circulating online about Trump’s public appearances. However, Trump continued making public appearances, participating in events, and speaking with reporters during the period in question.

Later in the Oval Office session, another reporter asked Trump whether he observed any signs of cognitive decline when he met with former President Joe Biden at the White House on Nov. 13, 2024.

“When you met with Joe Biden, President Joe Biden, right here in the Oval Office on November the 13th of 2024, could you detect any cognitive decline in President Biden at that time?” the reporter asked.

Trump replied that Biden appeared much the same as he had for years.

“No, not really. I mean, he was the same guy I’ve been watching for a long time,” Trump said.

“He was fine as far as I was concerned. I don’t know, something happened to him during the debate. It could have been me.”

Trump then added another remark about Biden’s political career.

“He was never the sharpest guy, you do know that, right?”

“It wasn’t like he was sharp as a tack.”

The comments marked another instance of Trump using an unrelated policy event to weigh in on political opponents and potential future rivals as attention begins to shift toward the 2028 election cycle.
