BRATTLEBORO-For years, Republican politicians kept up the litany of "Hunter Biden's laptop." It was pure, opportunistic lack of empathy to endlessly attack a vulnerable person recovering from addiction as a distraction from honest policy debate.
That his father chose not to collaborate with these heartless Republicans, refusing to allow them to destroy his son as a blood sacrifice, is a tribute to his decency.
