    I think it's nuts that he wants the fucking job. 
    I am approaching 45 and cannot wait to retire. Can you imagine having THAT job at 70/80 years old? Fucking ridiculous. 
    I'm not surprised. Some people enjoy the spotlight and attention I have to assume anyone running for president does. The WH, and all the staff, has got to be a pretty cool place to live if you can handle the media and attention.

    MCCAIN: Hunter wants to slash payments for his child. The president won't acknowledge she's alive | Daily Mail Online

    Do you think that Biden should acknowledge this grandchild if asked how many grandchildren he has?  I get how parents of drug addicts may not step in to fund their child's obligations, but I would assume that Biden would at least acknowledge that the child exists and is his grandchild by blood.  Perhaps the mother's wishes are that she wants nothing to do with the Biden's except for child support.  

    From the outside looking in it appears that this grandchild is bad news for Pres. Biden's image and his son's pocketbook.  

    Some of you will ask why bring up Hunter?  This isn't about Hunter.  This is a President not acknowledging a grandchild.  The sitting President in 2023.   I would expect a lot more from a President.   I would expect that he acknowledge the child and take an interest in the child's life as long as his mother is not against it.  Not required, but I would think decent people would do that.

    It's none of my business or yours.  It serves no national interest whatsoever.  

    I have no idea the drama behind it,  nor am I interested.

    Is character important when looking at qualifications for president?  This is at least a datapoint amongst many to be considered.   

    We sure made the Trump family part of our business the last 7 years.  I would assume if Trump wasn't acknowledging a grandchild it would be blasted across the media.  

    I agree with you though this is a personal matter of Biden's.  I think personal matters "matter" though in some respects when judging someone for President.  A gambling addiction isn't illegal but goes to character.  Binge drinking isn't illegal but goes to character.  Not acknowledging blood relatives when asked by a child goes to character.

    is paternity an issue here? is that why hunter is refusing? if so, then it makes sense to say nothing.

    Joe's character is impeccable. If and why he doesn't recognize this granddaughter is no reflection on him.  She's not his kid. If it was his, then you have an argument.  

    I mean,  Jesus Christ his whole life has been public. He grieved his dead wife and daughter as a senator. His son died of cancer and you're picking on this and saying it's emblematic of his character? After 50 years in public office?

    BTW, what an obnoxious article you linked.  This was the top story on Fox all day.  I guess things must be going pretty well in the US if this is the most important story on a Monday.  Not Ukraine,  First Republic,  Texas shooter on the loose...  no... Hunter Biden child support hearing.  Give me a fucking break.

    I did not find the article obnoxious.  Pretty sure the kid is Hunter’s based on DNA testing.   Here is a CNN (hopefully on the list of AMT approved sources) article indicating that the child is Hunter’s and he does not dispute it.  

    https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2023/05/01/politics/hunter-biden-what-to-know/index.html

    Not acknowledging your own grandchild seems pretty crappy to me unless there is a good reason.  I can’t think of any good reason other than the mother does not want him to do so.  

    Yes, there are plenty of other ills in the world. But this is a Biden thread so I mistakenly thought it was relevant.  Will go to the Trump thread and watch SNL clips of the Trump kids getting made fun of over and over and over when they have never committed a crime or done anything as remotely as embarrassing as Hunter has.  

    And this post of mine has nothing to do with Hunter and everything to do about President Biden, who on the whole seems like a decent person compared to other policiticians.

    Further, if this is such a reflection on Brandon's character and everyone is suddenly concerned about it, why wasn't it raised in 2019 during the campaign season? Further, did the unacknowledged grandchild, the mother of same or Hunter work in the Brandon Administration, speaking to the whyfors becauses of POOTWH's kids and not Brandon's? I realize its lost on some.

    Trump has no character at all, btw.  So Biden compared to him is a saint.  But I do believe it is a double standard to go after Trump’s kids so hard when Hunter and other relatives were clearly making money off of a perceived influence they had to Joe (not saying Joe personally gained).

    Yes,  until now no American has been divorced and had to go to court for a hearing about payments.  We've lost our country.
