The 81-year-old president made a midweek, mid-workday trip to Wilmington, Del., and was greeted by Hunter Biden, his wife Melissa Cohen and their 4-year-old son Beau on the tarmac of the airport of the Delaware Air National Guard.
The president hugged and spoke to Hunter for several minutes in full view of the traveling press pool, including photographers, videographers and reporters for major print, radio and TV outlets.
The made-for-viewing interaction around 4:40 p.m. was followed by a motorcade to the president’s nearby home in Wilmington — as Republicans like House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) urged prosecutors to focus on the president’s role in his son and first brother James Biden’s lucrative foreign dealings.
