In an interview with ABC News published Tuesday, Hunter Biden, the son of former Vice President Joe Biden, broke his silence over renewed allegations of corruption stirred up by the famous July 25 phone call in which President Trump asked Ukraine’s president to “look into” the Bidens.
Though he repeatedly defended himself against accusations of “improper” behavior, Hunter admitted to ABC that some of his private ventures — which include his lucrative position on the board of Ukraine-based energy company Burisma Holdings — was the result of “poor judgment” and that he “probably” would not have gotten some of his high-paying positions if he was not “the son of the vice president.”
Trump has since weighed in on Hunter’s interview, declaring it “really bad” and suggesting it only made the allegations swirling around “Sleepy Joe” worse.
“In retrospect, look, I think that it was poor judgment on my part,” Hunter Biden told ABC News’ Amy Robach in reference to his business dealings while his father was vice president. “Is that I think that it was poor judgment because I don’t believe now, when I look back on it — I know that there was — did nothing wrong at all. However, was it poor judgment to be in the middle of something that is … a swamp in — in — in many ways? Yeah.”
“I gave a hook to some very unethical people to act in illegal ways to try to do some harm to my father,” he explained. “That’s where I made the mistake. So I take full responsibility for that.”
Though he took the blame for giving his father’s critics a way to hit him, Hunter underscored that the did nothing wrong. “Did I do anything improper?” he said. “No, not in any way. Not in any way whatsoever.”
