2020 Democrat frontrunner Joe Biden is facing a series of issues which are beginning to conceivably sabotage his ambitions to become president of the United States.

The aforementioned issues exist not only in the form of predicaments with his son, Hunter Biden, but also Joe Biden's statements and work with known segregationalists.

Reviewing Problems Faced by the Biden Campaign

Most recently, Americans have learned about the personal and professional concerns in regards to Hunter Biden. Hunter is facing accusations of fathering a love child with a woman from Arkansas; mind you, this accusation comes notwithstanding Hunter's recent marriage to a South African woman. Thus far, Hunter has not confirmed or denied whether or not he is the father of this Arkansas woman's child.

The issues facing Hunter Biden are not mutually exclusive to potential infidelity. He allegedly issued threats towards a Ukrainian president and engaged in questionable business dealings. Thus far, Joe Biden's campaign has not released a public statement on this matter.

Joe Biden's Work with Segregationalist Senators

In addition to the issues with his son, Biden is furthermore facing censure for his work with senators who are openly supportive of racial segregation. Now, Biden has come out and stated that agreeing with people is not an automatic requirement for working with them.

However, Biden statements that one of the segregationist senators never referred to him as a "boy" has ruffled some feathers. Critics branded this statement as tone-deaf due to the racial history associated with the term "boy."

Various 2020 Democrat candidates have come out in light of Biden's work with these senators and called on the frontrunner to apologize. When asked about Cory Booker's claims that Biden ought to issue an apology, Biden responded with the following response:

"Apologize for what? Cory should apologize. He knows better. There's not a racist bone in my body; I've been involved in civil rights my whole career. Period."

The Future of Biden's 2020 Campaign

At this time, it is unclear whether or not Joe Biden's presidential campaign will take significant hits in light of Hunter Biden's issues and the connection to open segregationalists.

However, many Americans believe that Biden will need to issue a statement of sorts, at one point or another.
