Once a merciless target for the MAGA movement, Hunter Biden has decided to put himself in the spotlight once again.

­

Now aged 56 and celebrating seven years of sobriety, Biden has recently become a social media sensation, taking to X with a renewed sense of purpose.

­

While some are speculating that he’s lining up a political run of his own, others are preaching caution that he may look to cynically monetise his newfound audience.

The controversial son of former US president Joe Biden has spent most of the last few weeks conversing with those who wish him well and those who continue to hurl abuse his way. He even popped up on conservative commentator Candace Owens’ podcast, stunning people on both sides of America’s political divide by burying the hatchet.

­

Biden says he simply wants to start a conversation – but to what end?

On this episode of The Indo Daily, host Fionnán Sheahan is joined by Matt Viser, staff writer with The Atlantic, to dive into a most unlikely comeback and to ask whether Hunter Biden really is “the MAGA whisperer”.
