Joe Biden has been openly supportive of his son Hunter Biden’s struggles despite his son being used as an attack against him by Donald Trump and his allies during the campaign period. With Hunter’s memoir soon to hit shelves in April, Biden gets emotional as he talks about the upcoming book.
Biden talked about his son’s book over the weekend on CBS News and he got emotional as he shared his thoughts on his son opening up with his struggles with substance abuse over the years. Hunter’s book, titled “Beautiful Things,” is set to be released on April 6 and is published by Gallery Books. The memoir talks about Mr. Biden’s struggles with substance abuse and his journey into recovery. Biden also expressed how proud he is of his son in his effort to recover and get better and that the book had a profound impact on him.
“The honesty with which he stepped forward and talked about the problem and the hope that it gave me hope reading it,” said Biden. “It was like my boy is back… you know what I mean? Anyway, I’m sorry to get personal,” added Biden as he began to get emotional.
Hunter does not serve in his father’s administration and has stayed out of campaigning for his father. However, he has publicly talked about his business dealings and opened up about his personal problems from his addiction and recovery as well as the loss of his brother Beau Biden, who died in 2015. Mr. Biden’s book has received advanced praise from authors like Stephen King, who have read the book before its official release.
Biden may also be heading for a little clash with the progressive faction of the Democratic party as a new commission details the changes that may be made to the Supreme Court. This push was prompted by the swift confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett, Trump’s nominee, who was confirmed last year. Barrett’s approval brought a majority-Conservative set of Supreme Court Justices as she filled the seat left by the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg. While there are progressives that remain optimistic about the work of the commission, some have expressed concerns about the composition and timeline for which it would occur.
