“I’m not interested in watching, but I suspect what you posted wouldn’t be in anyone’s best interest. At least not yours or mine.”

The bile-filled blogger added in an online rant: “Daddy won’t be able to save you from this mistake… Claire Kelly visited the White House and met with @JoeBiden and Kamala Harris in July 2022. Claire Kelly is Hunter Biden 2.0.”
They referenced President Joe Biden’s son Hunter’s battle with addiction, in which he was found guilty in June of illegal gun possession and lied about his drug use when it was purchased.
