Hunter Biden, the erstwhile golden boy of the Biden clan, is finding that the road to the courtroom may be too steep for his not-so-gilded lifestyle. The son of President Joe Biden has requested a judge to dismiss his lawsuit against a former Trump aide, claiming to be financially incapacitated and unable to proceed. This news comes as a surprise, particularly because Hunter has previously managed to turn his infamous laptop into a raw material for marginal art and less-than-stellar memoirs, but now he seems to be cashing in on the wrong kind of attention.
In a dramatic twist, Hunter’s legal team filed paperwork in a California federal court requesting U.S. District Judge Hernan D. Vera to end the 2023 legal action against Garrett Ziegler. The claims against Ziegler revolve around the alleged sharing of Hunter’s private emails and images, a spectacle that most Americans had probably already assumed was occurring on some social media platform. The Biden legal squad proclaims that their client is in dire financial straits with debts reaching into the millions – a classic sob story for anyone with a passing interest in financial accountability.
It’s almost comical that Hunter, supposedly a high-flying artist and author, is now whining about his finances like a contestant on a reality show who just got voted off. His lawyers paint a picture of Hunter being unable to afford basic living expenses, especially after some unfortunate wildfire rendered his Los Angeles rental a no-go zone. One might think that being the son of a president would come with some perks, but apparently, it hasn’t been enough to keep the lights on and the fridge stocked.
As for his artwork, it appears Hunter’s artistic grasp may be as shaky as his finances. He claims to have sold just one piece for $36,000 since the lawsuit commenced, sharply down from his previous frenzy of sales, where he unloaded nearly 30 pieces at an average price far above what most people pay for their cars. Art critics have certainly raised an eyebrow, but they might find it hard to critique works allegedly inspired by a few scandals.

Meanwhile, his book sales haven’t exactly set the literary world on fire either. With a mere 1,100 copies sold post-lawsuit—compared to 3,100 previously—one can’t help but wonder if the public has tired of the Biden family saga. It seems that while Hunter is cashing in on his last name, he may not be cashing in on the hefty advances publishers promised. Not even the allure of a presidential legacy can ensure hefty bank deposits when the product doesn’t quite resonate with the average book buyer.
In summary, Hunter Biden is hoping a judge will feel pity for him, citing financial woes as the reason for withdrawing from a courtroom showdown. Whether this is a genuine financial crisis or merely a well-crafted strategy to dodge scrutiny remains to be seen. Either way, it looks like the once seemingly untouchable scion of the Biden dynasty is having a hard time keeping his head above water in the murky pool of scandal and public opinion.
