Trump Secures Victory in 2024 Election, According to Hunter Biden's Explanation
In a candid interview on Jaime Harrison's new podcast "At Our Table," Hunter Biden, son of former President Joe Biden, has spoken out for the first time since the 2024 election. During the discussion, he attributed the Democrats' loss in the election to a lack of loyalty and unity around his father, who was the party leader at the time.
According to Hunter, despite having the advantages of incumbency and a successful administration, the Democratic Party's disunity and lack of loyalty led to their loss in the election. He emphasized that the party's infighting was akin to a "meltdown" that resulted in their defeat.
Hunter's assessment comes amidst the release of the book "Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again," co-authored by CNN's Jake Tapper and Axios' Alex Thompson. The book discusses Joe Biden's decision to run for reelection in 2024 and alleges that some of those closest to him worked to conceal his diminished state.
Despite these allegations, Hunter contests the claim of a cover-up regarding his father's condition. He also suggested that Democrats were wrong to pressure Joe Biden to exit the 2024 presidential race, a decision that was ultimately made following weeks of mounting pressure from allies concerned about his cognitive abilities and campaign viability.
The former president's withdrawal from the race was due to his poor performance in a CNN debate against Donald Trump the month prior. Trump went on to win the election, with Republicans retaining control of the House and regaining control of the Senate in the 2024 elections.
Kamala Harris replaced Joe Biden as the Democratic Party's nominee after his withdrawal, but ultimately lost to Trump in the election. Polls showed Biden would have faced an uphill battle against Trump in the 2024 election.
Hunter Biden also offered his assessment on why President Donald Trump won the 2024 election. He stated that the idea of a conspiracy sells, implying that Trump's victory was not the result of a hidden plot, but rather the consequence of the Democrats' internal divisions.
Jaime Harrison is expected to release interviews with Democratic Govs. Tim Walz (Minn.) and Wes Moore (Md), among others, as part of his new podcast series. The interviews promise to provide further insight into the 2024 election and the state of the Democratic Party moving forward.
