00:00Hunter Biden Furious After Obama Moment with Father, book.
00:04When former President Barack Obama led then-President Joe Biden off the stage at a fundraising event in 2024,
00:12Hunter Biden did not see a heartwarming moment.
00:15He saw red.
00:17That really, really, really, really pissed me off, Hunter Biden told ABC News' Jonathan Karl per Axios.
00:25Karl interviewed Hunter Biden for his upcoming book, Retribution,
00:28Donald Trump, and The Campaign That Changed America.
00:33The younger Biden told Karl how angry he was at Obama during a fundraiser at the Peacock Theatre in Hollywood
00:38to raise money for Biden's re-election campaign, The Hill reported.
00:43At the event, Obama grabbed Joe Biden's hand, and they walked off stage together.
00:48Hunter Biden, who told Karl he thought the moment was going to be a meme,
00:52said his father took some time to acknowledge the audience, per Axios.
00:56I almost jumped up on the stage and said,
00:58Don't ever f-ing do that to the President of the United States again.
01:02Ever, Hunter Biden said.
01:04Biden ended up dropping out of the race in July after being pressured by his fellow Democrats,
01:10including actor George Clooney.
01:12Clooney wrote an op-ed in the New York Times last July,
01:15urging Joe Biden to drop out of the presidential race.
01:18He cited Biden's mental and physical decline as reasons.
01:21In the interview, part of Karl's upcoming book, Hunter Biden expressed strong frustration,
01:27saying he didn't feel the need to be polite.
01:30He also criticized George Clooney, describing him not as an actor, but more as a brand.
01:36Karl's book will be released Tuesday, Axios reported.
01:39The book explains why Trump's second term is more radical and consequential than the first,
01:45changing America in ways that will far outlive the Trump presidency, a book preview said.
