Hunter Biden is placing the blame for President Trump’s 2024 victory not on Republicans or outside forces—but squarely on Democrats who, he says, fractured their own coalition and squandered the advantage of incumbency.
In a candid interview on former DNC Chair Jaime Harrison’s new podcast, At Our Table, Biden said the party failed to rally behind his father when it mattered most.
“We had the advantage of incumbency, we had the advantage of an incredibly successful administration,” he said. “And the Democratic Party literally melted down.”
It’s one of Hunter’s most direct public appearances since his father left office, and it offered a rare glimpse into his views on the political infighting that plagued the 2024 campaign.
Hunter pointed to disloyalty and disunity as central reasons why Trump reclaimed the White House.
“We lost the last election because we did not remain loyal to the leader of the party,” he said.
Hunter Biden’s remarks echoed long-simmering frustrations from inside the Biden world, particularly after Democrats splintered over whether his father should remain on the ballot amid mounting health concerns.
After a shaky debate performance last June and growing pressure from within the party, the elder Biden stepped aside, clearing the way for former Vice President Kamala Harris to top the ticket.
Trump ultimately defeated Harris in November.
Hunter warned that Democrats risk repeating the same mistakes in the next cycle.
“We are going to fight amongst ourselves for the next three years until there’s a nominee,” he said, adding, “And then with the nominee, we better as hell get behind that nominee.”
The episode also revisited questions surrounding Hunter Biden’s role during his father’s administration.
He denied reports that he influenced policy or participated in key decisions, stating that he “stayed as far away as I possibly could — which, by the way, broke my heart.”
The conversation comes just months after Hunter received a controversial full pardon from his father covering an 11-year span of legal issues—including tax violations and gun charges.
The decision contradicted Biden’s repeated insistence that he would not intervene in his son’s legal matters.
Harrison, who led the DNC from 2021 to 2025, echoed Hunter’s criticism in follow-up remarks to Semafor, saying the lack of discipline and loyalty within the party may have cost them the race.
“Republicans unified around their candidate. We didn’t,” Harrison said, according to the New York Post.
Harrison’s new podcast aims to create a space for raw, internal Democratic dialogue.
Early episodes include conversations with high-profile figures such as Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore and Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC).
Hunter also touched on the renewed scrutiny over his father’s health, a topic reignited by recent media coverage and speculation tied to his cancer diagnosis.
Rather than dwell on the specifics, he dismissed the idea that there had ever been a coordinated cover-up.
“In Washington, you can’t keep anything secret,” he said. “People will believe in conspiracies when the truth is far less dramatic.”
Hunter Biden’s public appearances have been limited, but his recent comments indicate a willingness to participate in ongoing discussions about the Democratic Party’s direction following the 2024 election.
As Democrats look ahead to the 2028 cycle, his message appears clear: without loyalty and unity, defeat is inevitable.
