Donald Trump said that Hunter Biden was making ‘decisions’ behind the scenes and that his ‘ego’ was the reason for the president’s constant refusal to drop out of the race for the White House.
Speaking to Fox News, the former president said that in November Biden are ‘prepared’ to face but it ‘will not matter’ whether their rivals withdraw or not.
He told Sean Hannity: ‘They save them and they still sort of save them, but it’s getting harder to do now. I think Jill (Biden) would like to see her stay here, she’s having a good time. I noticed that she seemed to be having a good time and I might hear Hunter making decisions.
‘I think they will probably stay. They have an ego and they don’t want to quit…I think they probably will…nobody wants to give up like that.
‘They themselves will feel bad for a long time. It’s hard to leave like that, the way they’re trying to get them out.’
Trump’s comments came as Biden reiterated his determination to remain in the presidential race despite calls from senior Democrats to hand the reins to Vice President Kamala Harris — an unwelcome distraction because The president is preparing to host a major NATO summit in Washington, DC this week.
In closed-door crisis talks called by House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, several representatives suggested it was time for Biden, 81, to step down following his disastrous debate performance. .

He hasn’t done a good job and he hasn’t worked on a lot of things but I think from a political point of view he’s going to go with them. They are not even talking regarding alternatives.
‘And it seems like if they’re out for whatever reason, and I don’t think they want to be out, but if they’re out, it’s going to be them.’
“The interesting thing is that they have a lot of power because they have delegates,” he continued. You know, when you have delegates, unless they themselves say I’m getting out, there’s nothing they can do to get it out, except the 25th amendment.’
On Friday, Biden insisted in an interview with ABC that only “God Almighty” might convince him to go.
He said he believed he was the right man to challenge Trump.
He made his point even more Monday morning on MSNBC’s Morning Joe during a campaign weekend in Pennsylvania.
