Biden Issues First Response After Hunter Found Guilty on Gun Charges: ‘Proud of the Man He Is Today’

President Joe Biden is reacting to the news a jury in Delaware found his son, Hunter Biden, guilty on three felony gun charges.

In a statement on Tuesday, the president said, “As I said last week, I am the President, but I am also a Dad. Jill and I love our son, and we are so proud of the man he is today. So many families who have had loved ones battle addiction understand the feeling of pride seeing someone you love come out the other side and be so strong and resilient in recovery.”

“As I also said last week, I will continue to respect the judicial process as Hunter considers an appeal. Jill and I will always be there for Hunter and the rest of our family with our. love and support. Nothing will ever change that.”

Hunter Biden was charged with three felony gun charges in September after a plea deal fell apart.

The charges stem from allegations he illegally purchased a firearm while he was addicted to crack cocaine.

And on Tuesday morning, he was found guilty on all charges.

👤Joe Biden has said he would not pardon his son if he is found guilty.
