Hunter Biden Lets It All Hang Out in Epic Exclusive Interview with Jim Acosta - this is excellent

Edited to add:
I thought about doing a summary but they cover so much that I would have no idea how to summarize. It is long but I am finding it very worthwhile. How I handle that is to listen on my phone while I cook and do kitchen stuff. You don't need to watch, only listen. I am impressed with how insightful Hunter is.

Hunter reveals his candid thoughts on Trump, Graham Platner, the World Cup, and his dad, among other things..

1. Who cares? Besides his last name why should we care about what he thinks?

At least the Trump spawns have been running businesses.

...you'd understand why a lot of people come away with a different impression of Hunter.

...then you should've kept scrolling instead of wasting it on talking shit to people who have enjoyed his recent interviews and social media clapbacks.

The reality is, your time doesn't mean squat. You just don't like the guy, insist on being willfully ignorant about why he holds appeal and are obviously triggered by others who feel differently.

He's taken responsibility for his poor life choices (unlike the WH occupant) and is clean and trying to do better.

I'd love to be able to sit and watch this, but I don't have the 2 hours to do it.

3. I thought about that when I posted but they cover so much that I wouldn't know where to begin to do a summary.

I would suggest just starting somewhere and listening as long as you can. I listen on my phone while I'm doing kitchen stuff and it will take me several sessions of cooking and doing dishes to get thru it!. I don't know how anyone would have time to just sit and listen.
There is a transcript on the You Tube write up.
