Hunter Biden faces up to 25 years in prison and up to $750,000 in fines.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEverybody knows what this trial with Hunter Biden was about,\u201d Lara Trump said. \u201cThis is about smoke and mirrors, this is the red herring, this is a distraction from what you\u2019ve talked about the entire show, which is that it\u2019s not just criminality we\u2019re worried about with the Biden family. It\u2019s national security. We\u2019re concerned about, we need to know as American citizens, that when Joe Biden, as President of the United States, is making decisions for this country, he\u2019s made decisions based on what\u2019s best for the American people and not what\u2019s best for the bank account of the Biden family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lara Trump\u2019s remarks reference the foreign business dealings that Hunter Biden engaged in while his father was vice president during the Obama administration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you think back to when Donald Trump won the election in 2016, think about what our family business was: We were a private company that had real estate and golf courses around the world,\u201d she said. \u201cWe were in international business originally. Yet, what did we do? We said, you know what, when he won, we\u2019re not going to do any new international business deals. The opposite of that happened when Joe Biden became Vice President of the United States.
