Hunter Biden, who was on the board of a Ukrainian energy company despite absolutely no background in energy, has a new high-paying gig in an industry that he has absolutely no background in. . .

Does getting caught using the n-word make his art more or less valuable?
Looks like @ArtNet has no problems doing a positive puff piece on Hunter – despite the fact he was caught casually using the n-word.
If any other public figure did what Hunter Biden has done, they would be completely shunned from positive publicity. https://t.co/S3uKM6BbAZ pic.twitter.com/dGhHvXOTiX

Some critics think his paintings will be worth a lot of money while one consultant says this painting “looks like COVID”:

But the New York Post found a consultant who thinks some of the artwork could fetch $1 million or higher:
Acevedo said the pieces would garner more like $25,000 to $100,000 if not for Hunter’s name. The art consultant said he expects some of the works to possibly top $1 million in the end.
What a world.
