An ex-business associate of Hunter Biden dismissed the guilty verdict in the gun trial and said it's a 'distraction' from the Biden family's 'influence peddling.'

FIRST ON FOX: A former business associate of Hunter Biden is speaking out after President Biden's son was found guilty of all charges on Tuesday in his federal gun trial in Wilmington, Delaware. The ex-business associate said he 'feels bad' for Hunter with these charges and that it’s such a 'bonehead charge' and 'clearly more political gamesmanship with DOJ.

Prosecutors worked to prove that Hunter Biden lied on a federal firearm form, known as ATF Form 4473, in October 2018 when he ticked a box labeled 'No' when asked if he is an unlawful user of a firearm or addicted to controlled substances. Hunter Biden purchased the gun from a store called StarQuest Shooters & Survival Supply in Wilmington.

The ex-business associate's response echoes the Trump campaign, whose spokesperson, Karoline Leavitt, highlighted his 'real crimes.' 'This trial has been nothing more than a distraction from the real crimes of the Biden Crime Family, which has raked in tens of millions of dollars from China, Russia and Ukraine,' she said in a statement.
