Do we owe our children an apology?

Do we owe our children an apology? I'm feeling very guilty about my own at this point. They were raised to play fair, be a gracious loser, may the better man win. But in viewing the story about the Trump fiasco in Columbus, Ohio, I realize there is no honor, fair play, or even simply following the rules any level of government. It seems that the Democratic Fire Marshall, limited Trump to 1,000 attendees in a venue that has a 4,000 capacity. There can only be one reason, political influence. The same reason the IRS can target conservatives, that Hillary can blatantly lie and get away with it. The example being set at the highest levels is that cheating is OK. And the people are letting them get away with it. Is this what we've become?
