Biden: Hunter Accusations ‘Kind of Foul Play’ That Is ‘Used to Get to Me’
President-elect Joe Biden said he suspects a political agenda is the driving force behind accusations surrounding the federal tax investigation into his son Hunter.
“We have great confidence in our son. I’m not concerned about any accusations that have been made against him. It’s used to get to me. I think it’s kind of foul play, but look, it is what it is,” the incoming president told CBS’s The Late Show on Thursday.
Biden added, “And he’s a grown man. He is the smartest man I know, I mean, in pure intellectual capacity. As long as he’s good, we’re good.”
When host Stephen Colbert asked the president-elect whether any politicization of the investigation would stop him from working with congressional Republicans, he said no if their work “benefits the country.”
Colbert's question, which unfortunately the CBS Evening News omitted from their clip, was about people who "use your adult son as a cudgel against you" – not the investigation.
