Don't say "won the internet"
No, please do. It makes it very clear I don't want to read this trash.
Now we have a wired article singing his praises? I went from hearing nothing about HB for months to seeing a bunch of posts about his "comeback" and all these owns that he's getting on social media against conservatives.
This feels like an astroturf campaign to try to restore his public image.

if I didn't know better, I'd say it's a campaign to put him in office.
Which to be fair, can't possibly be a worse idea than putting trump in office. twice.
It's because we all have struggled in our own ways and game recognizes game, we see someone who fought demons and came out the other side and we know what that's like because we fight them too. Addiction is a great equalizer. Doesn't matter who your dad is or how much money you have, it will still get you. Sure, it could be argued that some with more resources can get better treatment or that people who no resources can't get ANY treatment but there is no cure for addiction that money can buy, unlike other diseases.
Robert Hunter Biden (born February 4, 1970) is an American artist, disbarred former attorney, and businessman. He is the second son of former president Joe Biden and his first wife, Neilia Hunter Biden. Hunter Biden was a founding board member of BHR Partners, a Chinese investment company, in 2013, and later served on the board of Burisma Holdings, one of the largest private natural gas producers in Ukraine, from 2014 until his term expired in April 2019. He has worked as a lobbyist and legal representative for lobbying firms, a hedge fund principal, and a venture capital and private equity fund investor.

Why are we paying attention to this guy again? He's not exactly an example of hardwork or particular brilliance. Just another disappointing nepo baby who would otherwise have no notable accomplishments if not for their familial connections like Don Jr. or Chelsea Clinton.
You think the right wing are the only ones that enjoy trolling? Watching right wingers lose their minds every time we give him air-time is entertaining. His opinions aren't worth much, but every time someone gives him a platform the collective pearl clutching is glorious. I'd like to believe most of us left of center, aren't delusional enough to think he's some great philosophical or political genius. But that in itself is kind of perfect, because he's got no credibility left to destroy, so why not just say what you mean. Let the court jester speak!
Not that it'll ever happen but the rich irony it would be if Hunter Biden was the next president gives me warm fuzzys. The perfect troll vote.
As long as no one starts suggesting he gets into politics, I don't care what he does.
He tweeted he wasn't interested in running for office. I do appreciate his backbone when confronting MAGAts though. And that he acknowledges he had a drug problem instead of hiding that truth.
I don’t give a fuck about Hunter Biden but I do have an intuition that he’ll probably get caught smoking crack and/or banging hookers in the not too distant future, so if I were a public person I would let him talk his shit, maybe cheer him on from a distance but stay out of his orbit.
Hunter has spent a lifetime as a lobbyist, banking on his daddy's name. I dont understand why anyone likes the guy.
I don't know why American politicians (or ajacents) run from controversy. Americans love flawed people these days. Own your vices and Americans will love you for it.
Bye, then! 👋 > Biden
Enough of this shit.
It's like hey Biden being cute in the Whitehouse was fun, should we have elected him president? No! This is that same bullshit
Why are we hearing about Hunter Biden? Did his grift dry-up? He is less relevant then UK royals and I hear almost nothing about them in american media.
