There’s no brushing this off.

Former first son Hunter Biden estimated in a new interview that he is in debt to the tune of up to $15 million, and admitted that “I have no idea” how to pay that amount back.

“Nobody’s riding to the rescue for Hunter Biden,” the 55-year-old attorney and businessman-turned-struggling memoirist and starving artist told podcaster Shawn Ryan during a five-hour interview released Monday. “My dad, you know, entered the presidency as the poorest man to ever take the office.

This past March, Hunter asked a federal judge to dismiss a 2023 lawsuit he filed against former Trump White House aide Garrett Ziegler, whose Marco Polo website meticulously catalogued the scandalous evidence of illicit drug use, payments for sex and financial irregularity found on the laptop’s hard drive.

In that filing, the Biden scion revealed that he had sold just one piece of abstract art from his catalogue for $36,000 since December 2023 — after raking in nearly $1.5 million following dad Joe Biden’s election as president and in the early years of his administration.

Hunter also said in the same court papers that sales of his 2021 memoir “Beautiful Things” also plunged from 3,200 copies over six months in mid-2023 to just 1,100 copies in the following six months.
