President offers love and pride for his son's addiction recovery after Hunter Biden's guilty verdict
Hindustan TimesWASHINGTON — President Joe Biden kept his distance from the courtroom where his son Hunter stood trial on felony gun charges to avoid any appearance of meddling but his quick statement reacting to the jury’s guilty verdict Tuesday spoke to where his heart has been all along. President offers love and pride for his son's addiction recovery after Hunter Biden's guilty verdict “Jill and I love our son, and we are so proud of the man he is today,” Biden wrote. “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.” After the verdict was announced, the White House canceled press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s scheduled briefing and announced that Biden would spend the evening in Delaware. "Recovery is possible by the grace of God, and I am blessed to experience that gift one day at a time.” The trial was a highly personal tour of Hunter Biden's drug use and mistakes.
