53. I don't know that anyone particularly "likes" Hunter Biden, it's just that no one DISlikes him...

I don't see fawning adulation, I just see people respecting his right to run his life the way he chooses. At least he recognized his shortcomings years ago and has resolved them.

His paintings, Billy Carter's (RIP) beer, etc. sell for the prices people are willing to pay. If no one is willing to pay $500K for one of his paintings it won't get sold at that price.

When I was in high school, my father got me a summer job working in the warehouse of the company he worked at. I guess I was using his "good name" to cash in.
