Bidens kid picks now to sell his art at what appears to be greatly inflated prices (not trained, can't find where he's every sold a piece, daddy's in office). This is something I'd expect from the Trump kids. Can't believe Joe and the White House even thinks this close to OK no matter what "security" will be placed on any sales. #questionethics
How is it not ok? What’s the difference between this and the gobs of book deals? Celebrities capitalize on their fame. Thats a feature not a big, and it extends to their namesakes as well. No one really cared that trumps poorly qualified kids had jobs, it was a feature. You can’t escape the loss of privacy or the benefits of fame. They literally sell their privacy for profit. Whether u r a celeb, convict, preacher, actor, or Martha Stewart, riding the waves of public scrutiny has its benefits and drawbacks I guess.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

Buy a painting of questionable value for $750K from a sitting presidents son had bad optics all over it. If dad weren't in charge wight now I wouldn't give a shit. We're still dealing with Hunters Ukraine fallout from when Joe was VP.
It ain't like he's selling Billy Beer at $2 a six pack.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
I don't know, I guess the guy has to do something. What if he was selling cars and was a very popular seller all of a sudden?
If the thing with Biden is that he's a lesser evil than Trump, then he's miles better than Jarvanka who made at least $700 million directly by her dad's assistance as the President
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Being the children of the President never stopped Trump's kids from cashing in. What Hunter does with his own stuff is his own bussiness.

The point is that Hunter's art selling is likely a cover for selling access to his father. And of course we have those emails from Hunter saying that pops made him give up a chunk of the money he was making. Yesterday I was watching the Hill and apparently the money went to paying for Biden's bills and upkeep of at least one of Joe Biden's homes, ect.
I’m a little concerned that the names of any buyers are being kept anonymous. Transparency would seem to dictate that the buyers’ identities be revealed.
‘I see you’ve requested a meeting with the President to discuss grazing rights.’
‘That’s correct.’
‘I also see that you purchased a Hunter Biden original for $300 000.’
‘That’s also correct.’
‘We’ll get back to you.’
