4. His dad was actually pretty remarkable.

Flying back and forth over the globe is taxing for a person of any age, let alone someone over 80.

I was amazed when he did his surprise visit to Ukraine--flying to Poland, then taking a train to Kyiv, meeting with Zelensky, taking a train back to Poland and then flying back to the US. That's incredibly impressive at any age.

If he had a prescription to help him readjust and hold off jet lag, that's pretty normal to be honest.

Hunter volunteering that information in defense of his father was his choice, but honestly, it's Issue Number 253,392,974 that we need to be worried about or upset over.

The real blame goes to obviously Trump and the Republicans for perpetuating the "Biden was incompentent!" false narrative, and shameless opportunists in the media like Jake Tapper who helped feed into it.
