Trump tells Hannity he believes 'Hunter's calling the shots' in latest rant

Former President Donald Trump, who has largely shied away from public events since the presidential debate in Atlanta, appeared on Sean Hannity's Fox News program on Monday for a lengthy discussion about President Joe Biden's broadly perceived loss in the debate and the concerns among the punditry and within his own party over his cognitive health.

Trump, who has himself raised mental health alarms with his rally ramblings about shark attacks and boat batteries, went into a lengthy rant in which he speculated that Biden's son Hunter was the mastermind behind his administration.

"It looks to me like he may very well stay in, he has an ego and he does not want to quit, he does not want to do that, looks to me that's what he wants," said Trump. "I think that [First Lady] Jill [Biden] would like to see him stay, she's having a good time, she seems to be having a really good time and I'm hearing that Hunter's calling the shots. This is not necessarily a very popular thing for the country, but I think he might very well stay in, and if he does, nobody wants to give it up that way."

"He will feel badly about himself for a long time," Trump added. "It's hard to give it up that way, the way to try to force him out. Really have to speak to his doctors, obviously has been sheltered by the fake news media, that's why they call it fake news."

Hunter Biden, who was recently convicted on firearms charges, has been the subject of months of investigations by Congressional Republicans, who have sought to find evidence that the president laundered international bribes through his son's business interests. To date, none of these investigations have gone anywhere, and attempts to impeach Biden have fizzled.
