Global News
John Schneider, best known for playing Bo Duke on 'Dukes of Hazzard,' wrote in response to a post from Biden about former president Donald Trump.
Dukes of Hazzard star John Schneider said U.S. President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden ought to be “publicly hung” over accusations of “treason.”
The since-deleted comment came early Thursday morning from Schneider’s account on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter).
The 63-year-old actor, best known for playing Bo Duke on the popular ’80s TV series The Dukes of Hazzard, wrote about the executions in response to a post from Biden about former president Donald Trump.
“Trump poses many threats to our country: The right to choose, civil rights, voting rights, and America’s standing in the world,” Biden, 81, wrote. “But the greatest threat he poses is to our democracy. If we lose that, we lose everything.”
In response, Schneider had strong words.
“Mr President, I believe you are guilty of treason and should be publicly hung. Your son too. Your response is..?” he wrote.
The actor signed the post, “Sincerely, John Schneider.”
