First paragraph: President Joe Biden on Friday publicly acknowledged his seventh grandchild for the first time, while adding that his granddaughter Navy is "not a political issue." Sorry, folks, that ship has sailed. I can see 20 years from now some candidate get waylaid because of a social media post he made as a 7th grader. EVERYTHING has been made political. Sports, the CEO's personal donations (see Mozilla), your family, etc. Do I think it's healthy? Hell no; but, this is where we are.
But this is what you right wing trolls wanted, right? He wants this girl to be part of his family. Good for Biden and for Hunter who has paid closed to $1M in child support for her already.

Good for Joe, long overdue. Wish the best for the grandkid…she drew a bad hand with Hunter as her biological dad regardless of how much financial support he ultimately provides
Can this be merged into the original thread? I have no idea what this thread's title has to do with anything.
We live in the midst of a mindless cult, a country in which a shameless and in-your-face criminal and traitor is the runaway candidate for the late Republican Party's presidential nomination, and who may well get elected so he can do a vengeful hatchet job on the democracy he tried to destroy the first time. But let's get worked up over Hunter Biden's child.
Fox News has become the 24/7 Hunter Biden channel. When the new Trump indictments were released this week, their coverage was still 95% HB.
Hunter Biden should run as a third party candidate. He could say that he loves his dad but the codger is too old to do the job, while the Republicans are so obsessed with Hunter that his candidacy would lead them to distraction. A Hunter v. Orange Man race could be the biggest crime thriller since "The Godfather."
I thought that from the title of the thread it concerned substantive (and most likely fictitious) evidence that Joe Biden was actually receiving payments from Ukrainian and/or Chinese sources through Hunter.
Stated above: "Good for Biden and for Hunter who has paid closed to $1M in child support for her already." Tax free zone. Lucky him.
Why was it long overdue? Someone obviously had to convince Joe that it's going to look awkward heading into the election if he does not acknowledge his granddaughter. The guy is faker than fake.
What does your post have to do with whether it was overdue or not? The kid is almost 5. He’s been her grandfather since day 1. That’s what makes it overdue. It’s not a hard concept, regardless of why he did it.
This is most likely the answer to why now: Hunter Biden and Lunden Roberts last month settled a paternity case over their daughter Navy in an Arkansas court after Hunter previously denied that he was the father.
Thank you for answering my rhetorical question. We all know why it's overdue. When you have to have a bunch of people point out to you that what you're doing is disgusting before you change course, that speaks to a man's character and moral compass. There are certain issues a candidate may flip flop on. Views change, perceptions change, circumstances change. Acknowledging a granddaughter doesn't qualify for those exceptions.
