The ongoing controversies surrounding Hunter Biden are causing concern among Democrats, who worry that it could damage President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign.
Amidst concerns about the economy and the president’s age, Hunter Biden’s issues are seen as an unwelcome distraction.
Some believe that the situation could have a similar impact to the email controversy surrounding Hillary Clinton in 2016. (Trending: Democrat Excludes White People From Holiday Party In Controversial Email)

However, there are differing opinions on the extent to which Hunter Biden’s troubles may affect Joe Biden’s campaign.
“I have a pit in my stomach about it,” one Democrat strategist said.
“The email controversy was silly but it was made to be a distraction and it worked.”
“This Hunter story has the legs to ruin things for Biden,” they added.
“Hunter Biden isn’t the biggest political problem that his father faces but the situation is an unwelcome distraction for an embattled president burdened by concerns about the economy and age,” Democrat strategist Brad Bannon said.
“The controversy about Hunter Biden’s financial dealings might play the same role for Republicans that Hillary Clinton’s emails did in 2016,” Bannon added.
“I don’t know whether or not it’s hurting him,” House Oversight Ranking Member Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said.
“I hope that the American people are able to see past it.”
“They figure this is their best shot, to create a dark cloud over the Biden family and hope that that affects Joe,” he added.
