Tim Dillon Trashes Cuomo’s Defense of Hunter Biden as a ‘Typical’ Addict: ‘Very Few’ of the Addicts I Know ‘Ended Up in the Ukraine’

 

Comedian Tim Dillon roasted Chris Cuomo to his face over his defense of Hunter Biden as a “typically drug-addled person.”

“You can write three books about how what happened to [President Donald Trump] with Russiagate — or whatever you want to call it — was wrong,” Cuomo said on his Chris Cuomo Project on Monday when Dillon was his guest. “What was the first thing he did when he got in power? He went after Biden for being a Ukrainian Russian plant. The first thing he did was go after Biden and his son, weaponizing a guy’s addiction. I don’t know how much you know about that world.”

Dillon then brought up his own addiction history with cocaine.

“I never took a photo of everything I did and put it on a laptop and then dropped it off at Circuit City!” he said, referring to photos showing Biden documenting his own drug use, found on his infamously-abandoned laptop.

“But you know very well that Hunter Biden is a typical drug-addled person,” Cuomo told Dillon.

“I know a lot of drug-addled people, very few of them ended up in the Ukraine,” Dillon shot back, referring to Biden’s controversial work with Burisma, a holding company based in Ukraine. “And their dads were the vice president.”

“He wasn’t in the Ukraine,” Cuomo responded.

“It’s a unique life, let’s say that. It’s a unique life. None of my drug addict friends ended up in Malibu selling art for $80,000,” Dillon said.

Biden turned to selling his paintings for high dollar amounts following his drug addiction while his father was president, setting off ethics alarms with critics.

” You would have to find drug-addled people who also were wealthy with connections of people in power,” Cuomo told Dillon about Biden. “A lot of junkies don’t wind up that way.”
