Hunter Biden’s sudden surge in posting on X has pulled former President Donald Trump back into the public conversation. After Biden returned to the platform in May, his numerous posts this week have sparked widespread attention on social media.
Among the posts was a response to a user claiming there was a cocaine package in the White House. Hunter Biden denied ownership and adopted a sarcastic tone regarding drug use.
In another reply, he joked that cocaine is not his drug of choice. In a separate post, he dismissed criticism of the "elite oligarchy class" by sharing an old photo of himself.
Hunter Biden’s messages didn’t stop there. In one image, he corrected a post that showed a pipe added to his mouth, referencing artificial intelligence and digital manipulation. These remarks clearly alluded to the style frequently used by Trump on Truth Social.
The posts also included sharp criticism of CNN host Jake Tapper. Biden targeted Tapper’s critiques of the Biden family and his comparatively softer stance toward the Trump family.
Hunter Biden also engaged more gently with some users. To an account that used harsh words about his family, he responded by referencing Johnny Cash in his profile picture, seeking common ground and reminding of Cash’s struggle with addiction.
This social media phase became even more visible as Biden quickly gained a large number of followers. The article notes he has nearly reached half a million followers, increasing online interest.
The text also mentions calls for Hunter Biden to run in the 2028 elections. While Trump has responded to this, the article argues that the debate should not be exaggerated at this stage.
It is recalled that only two weeks have passed since Hunter Biden appeared on Candace Owens’s podcast. There, Biden praised Owens and made occasionally provocative remarks while defending his father’s 2024 campaign.
The overall tone of the article suggests that Hunter Biden’s new social media phase is entertaining but that bringing it into politics carries risks. The piece argues that being an online focus is sufficient for now and that a more advanced political role would be premature.
