The Sins of a Child

("Hunter Biden to Plead Guilty on Misdemeanor Tax Charges")

From then President. Trump's "perfect" phone call with President Zelensky until today, the Republicans have been out for Joe Biden's blood-line and Joe Biden's blood. 

It matters not the charges to which Hunter Biden pleaded. It was always damned if you do, damned if you don't. Too little punishment, the fix was in. And any finding of a grave wrong would be as marking President Biden with the scarlet letter A, for accomplice.

But we know that Republicans and Democrats live in separate universes. Our gaze upon Donald Trump and his offspring deemed a witch-hunt, as though each was as pure as new fallen snow. Any investigation an abuse, any finding a sham. The wrong only in the accusation levelled.

Now Joe Biden will be asked, by those who oppose him, to pay the price for the transgressions of his son.  The pain he feels today only amplified by the ludicrous cries for his head on a platter. To come as certain as day follows night.

The sins of a child being visited upon his father.
