Trump's legal issues could undermine attempts to leverage Hunter Biden's conviction against Joe Biden.
Donald Trump may use Hunter Biden's conviction on gun charges against Joe Biden, but experts warn it's a risky strategy.
Indeed, Trump’s campaign team did not wait long to offer a hot take on Tuesday’s ruling in a Delaware court, which stemmed from the younger Biden’s 2018 purchase of a handgun while addicted to crack cocaine. For Julian Zelizer, a professor at Princeton University, even if the verdict only concerns the 54-year-old Hunter, Trump “will try to make it about the president.”Last month, he was convicted in a New York court on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records to hide a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels, who says she and Trump had a sexual encounter, in the heat of the 2016 presidential election.
Trump’s team will also want to keep in mind that when the real estate mogul attempted to attack Hunter during a 2020 debate, it backfired. And indeed, the president — just back from a trip to France — shuffled his travel schedule to head to Wilmington on Tuesday to see his son, before heading to Italy for a Group of Seven summit on Wednesday.
