careful. i don t think there is a lot of things that would have happened in my life if my last name wasn t biden. why did you leave the board in april? it s a five-year term. and you chose not to continue? yeah. why? i think it s obvious why. this is your opportunity to say why. because it becomes a distraction, that i have to sit here and answer these questions, so it becomes obvious that i won t serve on any boards or work for any foreign entities when my dad becomes president. most of what the president and rudy giuliani and others have said about hunter biden and joe biden inaccurate, wrong, restless, exaggerated. but he acknowledges there, my name was biden. i got opportunities other people didn t get. acknowledges in hindsight probably bad judgment. does this help joe biden, or is that a clip if joe biden is successful in the republican primaries, it s going to show up in a trump campaign ad? in the democratic primaries, i m sorry. it s interesting to see ho
things. tom steyer, listen, the ones that harry just said, the four at the bottom, castro. had is nthis is yet another where joe biden is open. he s got a wound and they see the blood. listen, i think it s okay to be critical of our candidates. it makes us better. if you can t handle angela bakari and april, i have one question, would you have been hired if your last name was not biden. by the way, in another part of the interview he addressed that very thing. he says i don t know, i don t know, probably not, but we have to go to commercial. no, he goes on, but i don t think there s a lot of things that would have happened in my life if my last name wasn t biden. his whole life he s been a biden. in other words he s been privileged. i love jill, i love hunter, i love the family, beau, may he rest in peace. the fact that he did an interview and it s released the day of the debate. whose idea was this?
ukraine. where hunter biden had no experience. didn t know the language. no experience in the energy sector and not an expert on ukraine gets this disposition. the american people again they saw this for what it is. they know it smells. they know it s wrong. and that s the fact. so, look, let s deal with the issues that the american people care about now. let s work on prescription drug prices. let s get this usmca passed. steve: good luck. it s going to be tough. so because they are so focused on attacking the president that s all they want to do in this unfair process they have begun. ainsley: another clip amy robak had with hunter biden. if your last name wasn t biden. do you think you would have been asked to be on the board of burisma? i don t know. i don t know. probably not but i don t think there is a lot of things that would have happened in my life if my last name wasn t biden. not probably not. definitely not. again, this is so obvious.
committees just moments from now. so he has arrived. he did not talk to cameras as he entered and he will start his perhaps hours of question and answer with lawmakers shortly. if your last name wasn t biden do you think you would have been asked to be on the board of burisma. probably not. i don t think a lot of things my father was vice president of the united states. little or nothing as a young man or as an older adult that my father in some way has not influence over. it does not serve either one of us. bill: a lot on the hunter biden interview. the first time he has spoken since the blowup controversy with ukraine and china, denying any wrongdoing with his business overseas. joe biden tonight will join 11 others on the debate stage in
ohio. karl rove is here. i ll take this first one. there are a lot of things that happened in my life if my last name wasn t biden including the number of positions he held with various businesses throughout his adult life. what did you hear from this interview on abc? i heard tone deafness. i heard somebody who could not acknowledge the simple fact that the reason that devin archer and hunter biden were added to the burisma board was that his business partner was a long time associate of john kerry, he was the son of the vice president of the united states. i ve got some experience in in part of the world. i used to be on the board of international broadcasting that oversa u radio free europe in the former soviet union. what was happening then. when these two men were added to the board. a new democratic development in kiev. the company wanted to get some
