In the bustling city of Manhattan, a trial of unprecedented proportions is taking place—the first ever criminal trial of a former president. A short distance to the south, another high-stakes court drama is about to unfold. As summer approaches, President Joe Biden's own son is set to face felony charges. The outcome of these trials could send a shockwave through the political landscape, potentially impacting the 2024 election.

For quite some time now, the Manhattan court has served as a stronghold of Trump's post-presidential activities. His frequent interactions with the press in the courthouse corridors have served as regular fodder for media headlines. Throughout the duration of the trial, he remains a silent spectator, due to a judicially imposed gag order that stifles his characteristic public responses to accusations flung his way.

On the national stage, Trump's trial has captured much attention due to salacious witness revelations. The stakes are being raised even higher by a somewhat ambiguous primary charge. This has led many observers to question the intentions of Democratic District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who is at the helm of the proceedings. Simultaneously, Hunter Biden is preparing to face his own judicial reckoning with felony gun charges in the coming month.

In private conversations, various confidants of President Biden expressed their concern to Politico about the potential impact of the trial on the President’s psyche. Some indicated that the Commander-in-Chief harbors fears that his son may ultimately face prison time. 'The President's concern for Hunter is a constant presence in his daily routine, from daybreak to nightfall,' reported one source. 'This concern will only escalate as his trial progresses.'
