Hunter Biden stated he does not like Tapper and would tell him so directly, citing ongoing grievances related to coverage and comments about his family. His criticism echoes similar sentiments from his father, who previously questioned Tapper\u2019s mental fitness and influence, especially regarding his co-authored book defending President Biden. The whole exchange is characterized by Hunter Biden\u2019s blunt and emotional tone, and the full interview is available online with a language warning.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Hunter Biden, son of former President Joe Biden, has never sugar-coated his ill feelings toward CNN\u2019s Jake Tapper.<\/p>\n<p>In 2025, Tapper <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Original-Sin-President-Cover-Up-Disastrous\/dp\/B0DTYKCJC9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">co-authored<\/a> \u201cOriginal Sin: President Biden\u2019s Decline, Its Cover-up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wednesday on former CNN host Don Lemon\u2019s podcast, the younger Biden, in a series of remarks punctuated by occasional expletives, blasted Tapper as a \u201cpoor journalist\u201d and a horrible human being.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWere you friends with Jake Tapper?\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/don-lemon-claims-people-begging-run-president-totally-serious\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lemon<\/a> asked about 30 minutes into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Gw4WMj0veE0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">interview<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo,\u201d the younger Biden replied, adding that he had known Tapper for a quarter century.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow\u2019d you feel about the book?\u201d Lemon then asked.<\/p>\n<p>The former first son did not hold back.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLook, here\u2019s what I\u2019d like to say about that, is I think that, um, Jake is, um, a complete and utter, uh, a**hole,\u201d he said. \u201cI think that he is, um, a really poor journalist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Biden also took aim at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/markwayne-mullin-reminds-jake-tapper-t-tps-means\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tapper<\/a> personally.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd beyond that,\u201d the former president\u2019s son continued, \u201cI don\u2019t think he\u2019s a very decent human being.
