Hunter Biden guilty: What could it mean for the president?

单集简介 ...

President Biden's son, Hunter, has been found guilty of lying about his drug use when buying a gun in 2018. Hunter Biden now faces a possible prison term of up to 25 years, although a sentence of that length for a first-time offender is highly unlikely. The high-profile trial comes as his father runs for re-election. It is the first time a sitting president's child has been found guilty of a crime. But what does Hunter’s conviction mean for President Biden?
