Don’t fall for the schtick. Joe Biden is just an old-school political huckster who has gotten too far with a winning smile, empty brain, slick suit, and backslapping persona.
Joe Biden’s net worth is about $9 million, but between his tenure as vice president and his time in the Oval Office as president, Biden’s estimated earnings were about $17.3 million. Biden “was the poorest member” of Congress. To prove his monk-like poverty status, Biden was a constant passenger on the Accela Express, routinely taking the Amtrak train from Washington, D.C. to Delaware.
And for all Biden’s fond reminiscences about his time riding the Accela Express and splitting his time between his Senate office in Washington, D.C., and his district, he never once mentions that all those trips were paid for by the taxpayer.
Biden’s starting salary in 1972 was around $155,000. The median income for families in the United States in the same year was about $11,120 per year.
Meanwhile, Hunter Biden sat on the board of the Ukrainian natural gas company, Burisma, where he was paid a whopping $83,333 per month. Hunter has no real experience whatsoever in the energy sector (other than helping to proliferate his father’s political malarkey). When his father served as the vice-president in the Obama Administration, Hunter traveled extensively on Air Force Two to make numerous deals with Chinese state-owned firms.
