Hunter Biden stunned political analysts on Sunday with a scorched-earth rant about the Trump family corruption.
Last week, the New York Times reported that the Trumps had made more than $2.4 billion during their first year in office, a figure that shocked ethics experts. The Trump family is also positioned to reap financial windfalls from a lucrative mining deal in Kazakhstan and a gun deal that have benefited from government actions by President Donald Trump's administration.
Biden took the Trumps to task in a lengthy social media post that caught many political analysts off-guard.
"250 years ago, we declared independence from a king who ran the colonies as a family business. In just 18 months, the Trumps have made King George look like an amateur," Biden wrote.
Biden listed off a slew of suspicious deals the Trump family is involved in, such as an Air Force drone company that Don Jr. and Eric Trump took public through a golf course company they own and the Saudi Arabian money that seeded Jared Kushner's hedge fund when he left the first administration.
"For six years they’ve asked Where’s Hunter? What about the laptop? Wrong questions," Biden wrote. "The right one is 250 years old. Does America belong to a family? They’ve given their answer. Long live the King."
Biden's rant left many onlookers taken aback.
"Scorch him, Hunter," Ameshia Cross, a Democratic strategist, posted on X.
"Hunter Biden complaining about high-dollar corruption from the consultant sons of prominent politicians wasn't on my expected check-list for today - or ever, tbh," Wilfred Reilly, an associate professor of political science at Kentucky State University, posted on X.
"Rather good summary of Don Jr’s corruption from Hunter Biden, which is not a sentence I ever imagined typing out even two years ago," Mehdi Hasan, founder of Zeteo News, posted on X.
"Government of Trump for Trump. This is corruption, chaos and lawlessness," Dr. Mohammad Rahimi, a Democratic union organizer, posted on X.
