Perception may not be of value to you, but it is to me — and a whole bunch of other voters.

The Trump progeny have no business holding the positions they currently have in the White House. I can’t prove nepotism, but I sure perceive it.

I was on the inside of a political party for six years. I saw enough quid pro quo going on to realize it is an inherent feature of western democracy. Most of it never makes it to the media.

Part of the job of a good politician is knowing how to reward loyal supporters without getting media attention. Mr. Trump does not have this balance. Mr. Biden is more wise in this regard. He is probably not going to caught in the deal to place his son in that position.
