President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden publicly acknowledged a seventh grandchild for the first time on Friday.

Referring to his 4-year-old granddaughter living in Arkansas, who his son Hunter Biden fathered out of wedlock, President Biden said in a statement to People magazine: "This is not a political issue, it’s a family matter. Jill and I only want what is best for all of our grandchildren, including Navy.”

      It’s an important political issue because the GOP made it into one.

      The hell it is, by that standard we should be talking about Jewish space lasers and and Hillary’s emails. You can ignore their rage when it comes to things that don’t have real consequences, like this. This is a bad click bait article and isn’t worth sharing.

      If republicans had popular policies or accomplishments, they wouldn’t be focusing on tabloid bullshit like this.

        That sort of dismissive rhetoric is how we ended up with Trump. “They’re just a bunch of idiots, they can’t convince regular voters to vote for him!”
