Trump campaign resumes best wishes to Hunter Biden

Moments after Hunter Biden was convicted on federal gun charges, the Trump campaign sent a searing statement to CNN that surprisingly ended with warm wishes for the president’s son. “As for Hunter, we wish him well in his recovery and legal matters,” the statement said. An hour later, however, the statement widely circulated to reporters lacked the gentler final line and instead focused on the blows against the Biden family and the trial that revealed intimate details of Hunter’s drug addiction. “This trial has been nothing more than a distraction from the real crimes of the Biden crime family, which has raked in tens of millions of dollars in China, Russia and Ukraine,” the statement said. “Crooked Joe Biden’s reign over the Biden family’s criminal empire will end on November 5, and never again will a Biden sell government access for personal gain.”
