BOO-HOO: Hunter Biden Pens Op-Ed Claiming His Drug Addiction Has Been ‘Weaponized’ for Political Purposes
GATEWAYPUNDIT ^ | 11/2/2023 | mike lachance

Hunter Biden has written an opinion piece claiming that his drug addiction is being used as a political weapon. He tries to paint himself as an advocate for others who might be suffering from addiction and implies that an attack on him is an attack on everyone with this problem.

He goes out of his way to say that he is not a victim, even though that’s clearly one of the messages behind the piece.

If he was an average guy from middle America, he would be in jail right now and everyone knows it.

From USA Today:

Hunter Biden: I fought to get sober. Political weaponization of my addiction hurts more than me.

Over four years ago, I chose life over the slow strangle-death grip of addiction, which in my case consisted each day of a bottle of vodka and as many hits on a crack pipe as possible. I am prouder of that choice and of my recovery than anything I’ve ever done.

My experience is not a unique one. At least 20 million Americans today suffer from substance abuse disorder. I don’t know a family that hasn’t been impacted in some way by addiction. What is distinct about my situation is that I’m the son of the president of the United States.

My struggles and my mistakes have been fodder for a vile and sustained disinformation campaign against him, and an all-out annihilation of my reputation through high-pitched but fruitless congressional investigations and, more recently, criminal charges for possessing an unloaded gun for 11 days five years ago – charges that appear to be the first-ever of their kind brought in the history of Delaware.

I am not a victim. By any standard, I grew up with privilege and opportunity, and fully accept that the choices and mistakes I made are mine, and I am accountable for them and will continue to be.

That is what recovery is about.

What troubles me is the demonization of addiction, of human frailty, using me as its avatar and the devastating consequences it has for the millions struggling with addiction, desperate for a way out and being bombarded by the denigrating and near-constant coverage of me and my addiction on Fox News…

Hunter should try walking a mile in Donald Trump’s shoes, or the shoes of the J6 prisoners, or any of the people who have been dragged through the mud by the Democrat Media Complex for the last seven years.

He is delusional.

It ain’t the drugs Hunter. It’s the bribes, corruption, human trafficking, underage prostitutes, and all the other sick stuff your rotten corrupt klan engages in.

Hunters drug addiction I could almost care less about, what I care about is the foreign bribe money from our enemies being funneled to Pedo Joe!

That victim thing is typical of addicts both current and former.

Most people just drunk text or post a picture of their lasagna on FB when they want attention. This brainiac writes op-eds.

“What troubles me,” Hunter whines, “is the demonization of addiction, of human frailty,
using me as its avatar for the millions struggling with addiction, desperate for a way out.........”


Listen up, sonny boy, drug users like yourself are a bunch of sicko
weaklings, (hardly frail), looking to get a thrill at the expense of others.

Your family suffered b/c you were a sap for a hit. Your kids
were left penniless so you could selfishly drug yourself silly.

Nobody forces drugs up your nose....you did it to yourself.

By shooting up, you aided and abetted rampant crime on innocent people.
Most crimes are committed by jerk-off suckers like yourself looking for a buck to get high.

Your crackpot dad must be very proud of you.

Yeah, influence peddling, being a foreign agent and asset, illegal and criminal business dealings with foreign countries and entities, while your old man was V.P. and getting kick-backs from you had nothing to do with any of it. These people are freaking delusional.

.
Hunter brought in approx $35 Million without a real job.

Must be tough. He’s going to be 54 or 55 and he’s having donors buy him cars, pay his taxes and pen silly arguments of a mid 50’s boy that wants to have zero responsibility his entire life.

Hunter, the guy that was too high to pick up his laptops sued the guy that had called him repeatedly and legally owned the abandoned electronics. He’s a POS.
