Hunter Biden Squirtle Sex Tape

About

Hunter Biden Squirtle Sex Tape refers to an image allegedly taken from a sex tape featuring President Joe Biden's son Hunter Biden having a threesome with two prostitutes while a large, plush Squirtle doll sits in the background as if watching. The image went viral in early April 2021, making "Squirtle" trend that day.

Origin

On April 8th, 2021, the Daily Mail^[1] published an article revealing a number of secrets about Hunter Biden's private life, including numerous images allegedly taken from a laptop that Biden abandoned in a Wilmington, Delaware computer repair shop in 2019 and confirmed as real by a forensic expert. Among the images are screenshots of text conversations in which Hunter begs his dad to run for president to save his reputation, texts revealing that Joe Biden thought their conversations were being hacked, a photo showing Hunter's damaged teeth allegedly due to taking hard drugs and evidence of drug trafficking.

There are also numerous images of Hunter engaging in sex acts with prostitutes, including one where he is being straddled by two women while a large plush Squirtle from the Pokemon series and a dog sit on the bed (shown below, censored). According to the Daily Mail, the image was taken from a Pornhub channel operated by Hunter.

Spread

The article was shared numerous times on Twitter^[2][3] that day, notably by right-wing figures Candace Owens and Jack Posobiec, whose tweets gained over 14,000 retweets and 2,600 likes and 6,700 retweets and 14,500 likes in a day. Twitter^[4][5] users also began taking notice of the Squirtle photo that day, making jokes about it (examples shown below, left and right).

Many joked that the presence of Squirtle in the photo gave them a more positive view of Hunter, seeing it as a sign that he's a Pokemon fan. For example, on April 8th, game designer Cliff Bleszinski tweeted^[6] about how weird the image is, but ultimately said "more power to [Hunter]" (shown below).

That night, "Squirtle" trended on Twitter under the "Politics" heading as users continued to make jokes referencing the image and using the trend as an excuse to post Squirtle images over the course of the day leading into the 9th (popular examples shown below, left and right).

On April 9th, a number of media outlets then reported on the Hunter Biden Squirtle memes, including Newsweek^[7] and The Sun.^[8]
