Hunter Biden comes out as “48.5% gay”

Hunter Biden is coming out of the closet… at least, almost halfway.

In a recent interview with liberal LGBTQ+ political commentator Luke Beasley, the former first son proudly dubbed himself “48.5% gay.”

Although, it seems like that number might be up for negotiation, based on the amount of times those percentage points switched during their 80-minute conversation. LOL.

Watch.

It all started at the beginning of the interview when, after satirically plugging an energy drink and pretending not to know Hunter, Beasley announced it was time to get serious and stated that he was gay.

“Wow,” Biden responded. “Seriously? I’m so amazed.”

At that point, the 24-year-old asked his subject straight-up: “Are you gay?”

And while Hunter initially replied, “Only a little bit,” Beasley pushed him further, asking him if it was “more or less than 50%.”

“Uh, uh, 48.6,” Biden cracked. Of course, things only got stranger when Beasley asked Hunter if he’d be his type if he were gay.

“No, I just — a little bit more masculine would be my type if I was gay,” the 56-year-old responded. LOL.

Throughout the rest of the interview, Biden’s self-described “gaydom” oscillated, dipping to 47% after a teasing question from Beasley, then rising back up to 48.5% after the commentator won him over.

Of course, the humorous interaction seemed to fall in line with the ex-White House bad boy’s current press tour, in which he’s addressed his father’s presidency, his struggle with substance abuse issues, and the sh*t show that is Washington, D.C. with refreshing honesty and trademark quips.

Last month, he coined the term “closetocracy” on the I’ve Had It podcast while calling out the hypocrisy of MAGA’s secretly gay politicians.

Biden also tore Nick Fuentes, the internet’s least favorite 27-year-old virgin, a new one for attempting to distance himself from Tr*mp while simping hard over Elon Musk.

His mission, as he explained to Beasley, stems from a desire to reach other Americans struggling with substance use, as well as their families.

“You have to make amends for those things that you are appropriately guilty for, but you don’t have to live in shame,” he said.

“You have to drop the shame if you want to break the cycle of addiction.”

And with his father out of the White House (and no political aspirations of his own), Hunter is finally able to do that on his own terms.

“I get to do whatever the f*ck I want to do,” he added. “I’m not running for anything. Nobody in my family is running for anything. I’m not talking on behalf of the Democratic Party. I’m not talking on behalf of anybody.”

That said, it seems like the conservatives are struggling to read the tea leaves of nuance.

Naturally, the interview was covered by Jesse Watters, who used Hunter’s satirical attitude as proof that woke was dead, the Dems are doubling back on their support for LGBTQ+ people, and a blue win spells out disaster for the country. (Girl, whatever.)

“[Jesse Watters is] going to keep trying to convince you that if Democrats ever got into power again, they would crash the economy and everything would go to hell,” Beasley said in a response video.

“Just remember that over and over again … the empirical results that Jesse will never tell you about demonstrate a trend going back a century that shows Democrats performing way better on the economy than Republicans.”

Now that we agree with, 100%!
