'Dumpster fire at Biden HQ!' Donald Trump Jr. slaps at Hunter Biden who dubbed him 'Prince Humperdinck' in nod to movie buffoon as president's son says former VP's family 'got rich by leeching off American taxpayers'

• Hunter Biden appeared Tuesday on ABC's 'Good Morning America'
• He said he exercised poor judgement in his Ukraine and China business deals and conceded that his famous name opened every door he walked through
• 'I don't think that there's a lot of things that would have happened in my life if my last name wasn't Biden,' Hunter said
• President Donald Trump said Hunter Biden's TV interview was 'really bad ... Now Sleepy Joe has real problems! Reminds me of Crooked Hillary' 
• And his son Don Jr. called the interview a 'dumpster fire,' mocking him with the same charge of nepotism that has hounded the three eldest Trump children
• Hunter Biden said he doesn't pay attention to what the Trumps say, calling Don Jr. 'Prince Humperdinck' – a reference to the cowardly 'Princess Bride' character 
• Don Jr. fired back, saying in a lengthy statement that the Trumps earned their way to wealth while the Bidens 'got rich by leeching off American taxpayers'
• Donald Trump Jr. ridiculed Hunter Biden on Tuesday for conceding that nepotism played an outsize role in his financial success, calling a TV interview with former vice president Joe Biden's son a 'dumpster fire.'
  The younger Biden had branded Don Jr. 'Prince Humperdinck,' a nod to the cowardly, feckless and buffoonish character in the 1987 cult-classic film 'The Princess Bride.' 
  The Biden scion acknowledged in an ABC News interview that 'a lot of things' in his life would not have happened without his family name.
  And he said it would have been 'impossible for me' to sit on boards of directors of companies and nonprofits if his father hadn't been a powerful elected official.
   
• Hunter has also reaped unlikely windfalls at a Ukraine energy company and as a beneficiary of a $1.5 billion Chinese capital investment in a fund he partly owns. 
  Don Jr., the president's eldest son, smelled blood.
  'The Bidens got rich leeching off American taxpayers while my family was building an amazing business. The difference between Hunter and me is that I’ve never made a living selling access to my politician father,' he told DailyMail.com in a lengthy statement. 
  'My first job at the Trump Organization was working as a dock attendant, then on construction sites in high school. I’ve never been appointed to Amtrak boards based solely on the fact that my father was a prominent Senator at the time,' he said.
  'I never have and never would sell access to a foreign country while my father sat in the White House like Hunter did with China and Ukraine. My family gave up pursuing all new international business deals when our father was elected, while Hunter specifically used his father’s office to magically become a wealthy "international businessman".'
  Hunter told ABC that political slams on his route to wealth are a meaningless dance compared to 'real stuff' – likely a reference to his struggles with drug addiction and his brother Beau's 2015 death from an aggressive form of brain cancer.
  Calling the Trumps' verbal fisticuffs a relative 'Barnum and Bailey' circus, he insisted he doesn't spend time thinking about the Republican family that now vilifies him and his father at every turn.
  'I mean, like, you know, Donald "Prince Humperdinck" Trump Jr. is not somebody that I really care about,' he said.
  'Dumpster fire at Biden HQ!' Trump Jr. tweeted after the interview ran on 'Good Morning America.'
  He, his brother Eric and their sister Ivanka have themselves been accused of taking advantage of their family name.
  Ivanka and her husband Jared Kushner are senior White House aides. Don Jr. and Eric are running the Trump Organization in their father's absence, managing the president's real estate empire.
  Hunter Biden boasted his own résumé on Tuesday before agreeing that his famous name positioned him for a life of elite privilege.
   
• 'I was vice chairman of the board of Amtrak for five years,' he said. 'I was the chairman of the board of the U.N. World Food Program. I was a lawyer for Boies Schiller Flexner, one of the most prestigious law firms in the world.'
  'I think that it is impossible for me to be on any of the boards I just mentioned without saying I'm the son of the Vice President of the United States,' he said.
  That influence may have helped Hunter from the earliest days of his career. His first job after graduating from Yale Law School in 1996 was 
  After graduating from law school, Biden took a job at MBNA America, a banking conglomerate later swallowed up by Bank of America. At the time, MBNA was a significant contributor to Joe Biden's U.S. Senate campaigns. 
  In less than three years, Hunter Biden was promoted to executive vice president of the company.
  A source close to Donald Trump Jr. told DailyMail.com on Tuesday that Hunter's pride in later working for Boies Schiller Flexner is misplaced.
  'Hunter Biden? You mean the guy that was on TV bragging about having worked for the law firm that hired thugs to terrorize and silence Harvey Weinstein's victims?' the source mocked.
