A few thoughts:
1) I don’t get why these personal moments are newsworthy
2) they’re heartbreaking, and the type of heartbreak that anyone who has had a loved one battle addiction knows
3) this does more to humanize Joe Biden than any campaign ad. https://nypost.com/2020/10/16/texts-show-raw-intimate-exchange-between-joe-and-hunter-biden/

More succinctly: dunking on a man for comforting his addict son is fucked, and if your politics leads you to do it, that’s fucked, too.
We are in the midst of the greatest addiction and overdose crisis this country has ever seen.
And we’re dedicating time and attention to dunk on a man struggling with addiction and a father who cares for him?
Are you fucking kidding me?

Should we be talking about Hunter and his foreign connections? Of course we should!
Don’t degrade that cause with bullshit tabloid fodder. This is cruel.

Anyway, I encourage you all to read this.
