The Joe Biden depicted here is an absentee father, a remote parent who couldn\u2019t or wouldn\u2019t open up emotionally.<\/p>\n<p>Hunter Biden, now 51 and reinventing himself as an author, artist and recovering addict, certainly spares himself. Sure, there are pages upon pages of Hunter smoking crack and cycling through rehabs, but the really interesting stuff is what he has explained away or left out entirely \u2014 worth revisiting here, not least because the national <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a> is l<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ing up this trite and clich\u00e9d redemption narrative without, as President Biden\u2019s pal and former boss Barack Obama might say, \u201cchecking under the hood and kicking the tires.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Clearly and understandably, Hunter Biden is a mess. But he is also a terrible person. Both things can be true at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>That said, Hunter lifts the hood just enough for the reader to wonder: Where\u2019s Joe? Where is he as his two little boys, 3-year-old Beau and 2-year-old Hunter, recover from the car crash that killed their mother and 13-month-old sister?<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a depiction far at odds with Brand Biden: Joe the grandfatherly figure so painfully familiar with loss and grief that his empathy is boundless, enough to soothe and unite a traumatized nation.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, as Hunter writes, in the immediate aftermath of that crash, his father chose not to walk away from his newly won US Senate seat or even take a hiatus to care for his wounded and traumatized toddlers. Instead, Joe Biden had the press photograph his swearing-in from the boys\u2019 hospital room, an image that, incredibly, remains his political calling card.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe consequences of the crash impacted the entire state,\u201d Hunter writes. \u201cRepublican, Democrat \u2014 it didn\u2019t matter. Delaware\u2019s residents placed their sorrows and their hopes in a dashing young widower suddenly left with two toddlers.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-nypost-medium-post\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"322\" height=\"483\" alt=\"Hunter Biden\u2019s memoir,  &quot;Beautiful Things&quot; will be released on April 6.&#10;\" class=\"wp-image-17745626 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/Bidenbook.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/Bidenbook.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/Bidenbook.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/Bidenbook.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=322 322w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/Bidenbook.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=644 644w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 322px\"\/><figcaption>Hunter Biden\u2019s memoir,  \u201cBeautiful Things\u201d is out April 6. <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Gallery Books via AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>The subtext is clear: If only Hunter felt he, too, could place his sorrows and hopes with his father.<\/p>\n<p>The big question looming over this book is, Why? Why now? Why does this book exist? Is Hunter so broke (likely, as we\u2019ll see) that he took a pure money grab? Is it an attempt to clear his name from accusations of influence-peddling, pay-to-play, or the federal investigation into his taxes and possible money laundering? An attempt, conscious or not, to slay the father whose shadow he dwells in \u2014 the father who clearly favored Beau?<\/p>\n<p>It might just be all three.<\/p>\n<p>One pure throughline: Hunter\u2019s brother, Beau, who died of a brain tumor in 2015 at age 46, was the love of Hunter\u2019s life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeau was an unflagging lodestar for me,\u201d Hunter writes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were inseparable, often referred to by a single moniker: BeauAndHunt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The two were bonded as sole survivors of that horrific car crash, then further as brothers without a mother or, really, their father.<\/p>\n<p>Here we learn for the first time of the people who really raised Beau and Hunter: Joe\u2019s sister, Val, and his brother Jim, who moved into their home in Delaware so Joe could focus on his career.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur mommy\u201d is what the boys called their biological mother still, as adults. Hunter calls her that here. And while Hunter claims that he and Beau considered Joe\u2019s second wife, Jill, their mother, too, a text exchange on Hunter\u2019s laptop contradicts that happy ending.<\/p>\n<p>Discussing his romantic travails, Hunter\u2019s therapist texted, \u201cYou\u2019re avoiding being the chosen one, because you were not the chosen one, by your step-mother.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While their father took them to rallies or stump speeches or had them up to Capitol Hill for field days, it was, \u201cfrom the moment we left the hospital,\u201d Hunter writes, that \u201cwe had our dad\u2019s sister \u2014 Aunt Val, move in and not only take care of our immediate daily needs but also be as warm and tender and emotive as a mother figure could possibly be.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-nypost-medium-post\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"322\" height=\"483\" alt=\"As toddlers in 1973, Hunter and Beau Bidensaw dad Joe Biden sworn in to his Senate seat from their hospital room after the horrific crash that killed their mom and sister.&#10;\" class=\"wp-image-17745634 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/Joe-Biden1973.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/Joe-Biden1973.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/Joe-Biden1973.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/Joe-Biden1973.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=322 322w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/Joe-Biden1973.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=644 644w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 322px\"\/><figcaption>As toddlers in 1973, Hunter and Beau Biden saw dad Joe Biden sworn in to his Senate seat from their hospital room after the horrific crash that killed their mom and sister. <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>What\u2019s not in the book is all a matter of public record.

I was surprised when I found airline purchases and jewelry purchases.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In her divorce filing, Kathleen, mother of their three girls, accused Hunter of blowing the family\u2019s money on hookers, strippers and drugs. She said he had maxed out the family\u2019s credit cards, owed over $300,000 in taxes and had moved $122,179 from a joint account into his own.<\/p>\n<p>Kathleen also discovered Hunter had come into possession of an $80,000 diamond ring \u2014 which Hunter later told The New Yorker had been gifted to him by a Chinese tycoon. Nothing to see here, totally cool.<\/p>\n<p>Hunter Biden is also under investigation for his business dealings in China.<\/p>\n<p>How is none of this in Hunter Biden\u2019s memoir? If Simon &amp; Schuster really paid Hunter seven figures for this book, you\u2019d think they\u2019d demand their money\u2019s worth.<\/p>\n<p>It gets better. Hunter, after begging his father to issue a statement of support, moves in with Hallie and begins parenting the two children she shared with Beau.<\/p>\n<p>He then simultaneously, according to messages found on the laptop he left at a repair shop, seemingly hooks up with Hallie\u2019s married sister Elizabeth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe should shower together by [FaceTime] every morning or night,\u201d Hunter texts Elizabeth. \u201cI\u2019ll teach you how to masturbate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A text from Hunter to Hallie in November 2017: \u201cBy the way I\u2019m going to have 5 strippers naked and admiring my d-\u200a-k back to my hotel tonight and I\u2019m going to smoke crack and drink enough to kill and [sic] elephant and put your kids robbed over the phone and wake them up and assure them that your [sic] not as bad a person as you seem.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also found on Hunter\u2019s laptop was a 2018 lease, for Hunter and Elizabeth, to rent a three-bedroom townhouse in Delaware.<\/p>\n<p>This was two years after a text in which Elizabeth told Hunter she and her sister Hallie are always \u201c100% with you!!!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The dynamics of this relationship are unclear. Did Hallie know? Was there an unspoken agreement? Or something darker?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were living at Beau\u2019s old house, and it just became a party house,\u201d a source told the Daily Mail. \u201cThey were obviously up 24\/7 just partying.

His concurrent affair with Hallie\u2019s own sister would imply that it wasn\u2019t enough to have Beau\u2019s widow \u2014 he also had to drag her down to his level, to ruin the perfect wife of the perfect son. And his lifelong battle with addiction seems far from over, despite the fairy-tale ending he gives this book \u2014 marrying a woman he had known for six days, fresh off another crack bender, no Bidens at the wedding but his dad, via cellphone, saying, \u201cHoney, I knew that when you found love again, I\u2019d get you back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDad, I always had love,\u201d Hunter replied. \u201cAnd the only thing that allowed me to see it was the fact that you never gave up on me \u2014 that you always believed in me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hunter may believe that. He may need to believe that. But as anyone who has experience with addicts knows, it is only when the truth is really told and responsibility truly taken \u2014 no excuses or minimizing or blame-shifting \u2014 can you be sure an addict is for real.<\/p>\n<p>Hunter Biden\u2019s memoir \u2014 to the shame of an adoring media \u2014 is nothing more than a political fairy tale.\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
