You can tell a lot about a man's character by the way he treats and takes care of his children. Hunter Biden, who has made himself and his family rich by trading off of the family name, is no exception. 

"I don't think that there's a lot of things that would have happened in my life if my last name wasn't Biden," Hunter told ABC News in 2019. "Because my dad was vice president of the United States. There's literally nothing, as a young man or as a full grown adult, that my father in some way hasn't had influence over." 

"I think that they saw my name as gold," Hunter added during an April 2021 interview with the BBC about his famous last name and in response to a question about his hiring on the board of notoriously corrupt Ukrainian energy company Burisma – which paid him as much as $80,000 per month from 2014-2019.

It's not news that Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, is a total dirtbag. The laptop from hell he abandoned at a repair shop made that crystal clear. But his latest refusal to accept responsibility for a child he fathered with Linden Roberts, a woman he met in Arkansas, is another new low. 

Roberts wants her daughter, Navy Joan Roberts [Biden], to have the same "golden" last name. A paternity test, which was court-ordered after Hunter refused to participate, proved Navy Joan is indeed a Biden. Regardless, Hunter doesn't want his daughter to benefit from the Biden name. 

"Hunter Biden asked a judge to deny his 4-year-old daughter from taking his surname — claiming it's a lightning rod for criticism and would rob the child of a 'peaceful existence,'" the New York Post reports. "The first son's request on Jan. 6 came amid an ongoing paternity case against him in Independence, Arkansas." 

In other words, Hunter is still refusing to acknowledge Navy Joan is, in fact, his child. 

Adding insult to injury, while Hunter partied and galavanted around the world, paying escorts and snorting cocaine, he refused to pay child support. Once ordered by a court to do so, Hunter requested the payments be lowered and claimed financial hardship. 

"Hunter Biden's disgraceful treatment of his daughter has long been on display in Arkansas where he denied being her father, fought paternity, and was threatened with contempt of court over his failure to supply needed documents," George Washington University Law Professor Jonathan Turley writes about the saga. "After DNA testing was forced by a court, Hunter was found to be the father but he continued to resist efforts to force him to pay child support and supply financial records."

But the condemnation of this innocent child hasn't just come from her father. It's come from the entire Biden family. 

For two Christmas seasons in a row, First Lady Jill Biden has hung six stockings for each of her grandchildren over a fireplace in the White House. They have seven grandchildren. President Biden has repeatedly refused requests to provide security for Navy Joan and her mother. There's no doubt that Hunter, his father and the rest of the family preferred the child had been aborted. After all, that would have saved them the hassle. 

President Joe Biden has referred to Hunter Biden as the "smartest guy he knows." He continues to ignore the existence of one of his granddaughters, showing Biden's character is just as flawed as his degenerate, deadbeat son Hunter's.
