Hunter Biden crassly brushed aside first lady Melania Trump’s threat to sue him for $1 billion if he doesn’t retract “false” and “defamatory” comments linking her to late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
“F–k that. That’s not going to happen,” Biden said with an arrogant smile during an interview on the YouTube show “Channel 5 with Andrew Callaghan” on Thursday.
The first lady’s team revealed Wednesday that it put the scandal-scarred former first son on notice for suggesting that Epstein introduced her to her husband, Donald Trump.
Her team has also issued similar threats to other key figures. Last month, for example, the Daily Beast retracted an article that peddled similar claims after getting threatened by the first lady’s team.
“Failure to comply will leave Mrs. Trump with no choice but to pursue any and all legal rights and remedies available to her to recover the overwhelming financial and reputational harm that you have caused her to suffer,” the first lady’s attorney Alejandro Brito wrote in an Aug. 6 demand letter, Fox News reported.
Despite his bravado, Biden could find himself in a lot of financial trouble if he was sued.
The former first son has claimed in court documents that he is saddled with “significant debt in the millions of dollars range” amid struggling art sales and expensive legal bills.
