The incumbent US President Donald Trump disowned prosecution of his opponent’s son, President-elect Joe Biden . He wrote on his page at Twitter that it has nothing to do with the investigation.
“I have NOTHING to do with the potential prosecution of Hunter Biden or the Biden family,” he said. Trump noted that media claims to the contrary are just “fake news,” adding that it is “very sad to watch.”
