Hunter Biden Jokes He Is ‘48.5 Percent Gay,’ Says His ‘Type’ Is ‘More Masculine’

Hunter Biden repeated the joke as the percentage rose and fell during the interview, which Luke Beasley later clipped and posted online.

  • On the August 17 episode of the Luke Beasley Show podcast, Hunter Biden joked to political commentator Luke Beasley that he is "48.5 percent gay" when asked about his sexual orientation.
  • Previously, Hunter Biden alleged that Washington, D.C. politics is filled with a "closeted gay mafia," largely Republican, driven by self-hate that causes people to project negativity onto others.
  • During the exchange, Beasley asked about Hunter's preferences, prompting him to note his "gaydom" had fluctuated to 47 per cent and that his type would be "a little bit more masculine" if he were gay.
  • In separate interviews, including a conversation with Candace Owens, Hunter Biden discussed his past crack cocaine addiction and seven years of sobriety, while reflecting on his marriage to Melissa Cohen.
  • Repeatedly throughout the summer, Hunter Biden has suggested that remaining closeted creates a "blackened heart," which he argues leads people to treat others poorly—a theory he has promoted across multiple media appearances.
