FORMER President Donald Trump took aim at Hunter Biden during his CPAC speech on Sunday, implying Biden's son should not be selling his art. <\/p>\n

In his speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference, Trump took aim at Democrats, the Bidens, and even some Republicans. <\/p>\n

"Where is Hunter? His highest and best use, I can tell you, is in a studio to paint, even though he's never painted before," Trump said. <\/p>\n

"He set a record for the highest price for a person that never painted before, never did a painting before," Trump claimed at CPAC. <\/p>\n

It was announced in June that Biden, 51, is beginning a new career as an artist. He is planning a private showing of his work in the fall, according to Artnet. <\/p>\n

Biden's art dealer,\u00a0Georges Berges, said Biden's pieces could be worth $75,000 to half a million dollars.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Biden told Artnet that his art is a way for him to cope. He has struggled publicly with substance abuse. <\/p>\n

\u201cFor me, painting is much more about kind of trying to bring forth what is, I think, the universal truth," Biden told Artnet. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe universal truth is that everything is connected and that there\u2019s something that goes far beyond what is our five senses and that connects us all," he went on. <\/p>\n

Addressing whether President Biden was a fan, Hunter said: \u201cMy dad loves everything that I do, and so I\u2019ll leave it at that.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Hunter expressed how his new hobby has helped battle addiction, telling\u00a0the New York Times\u00a0in February 2020 that painting is "literally keeping me sane."<\/p>\n

"For years I wouldn't call myself an artist. Now I feel comfortable saying it," he said.<\/p>\n
