Why Trump, and not Hunter Biden, is trashing America’s courts
Treating the rule of law as a partisan issue is the mark of a corroded political culture.
Edward LuceColumnistIt is the universe’s little joke that America’s first trial of the child of a sitting president began four days after its first conviction of a former president.
Hunter Biden is not being persecuted. Nor is the president’s surviving son the victim of a rigged judiciary. If Biden jnr is convicted, there will be no uproar about the weaponisation of America’s courts. If, on the other hand, he is acquitted, all conspiratorial hell will break loose.
