For his children
Trump thinks it’s very very very unfair that anyone is investigating his darling little children who just want to play with their teddy bears in peace.
Former President Donald Trump believes that his children are being targeted by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s Jan. 6 commission and the New York attorney general to deflect attention from President Joe Biden’s failings.
Or – and hear me out for a second – it could be that they did illegal things.
“It’s a very unfair situation for my children. Very, very unfair,” he told Secrets in a telephone call.
You know how he could have avoided it? By maintaining a wall of separation between them and his crimes. Instead of course he raised them to commit crimes, and he allowed Princess Ivanka to install herself and her sinister husband in the White House.
“They are using whatever powers they have. They couldn’t care less. They are vicious people,” Trump said of the panel.
Did Trump use whatever powers he had (and some he didn’t have)? Was he able to care less? Is he a vicious person?
He suggested that the commission investigation is a smokescreen to cover for Biden’s missteps. “It’s a disgrace, what’s going on. They’re using these things to try and get people’s minds off how incompetently our country is being run. And they don’t care. They’ll go after children,” Donald Trump said.
“Children.” Princess Ivanka is 40.
“They’ve done a great job,” he said. “You know Ivanka very well, and you know the quality of her,” he added. “For them to have to go through all this stuff is a disgrace.”
They wouldn’t have “had” to if he hadn’t involved them in his crimes.
“The quality of her”. FFS. Personally I’m not that impressed with her ‘quality’.
Also, wasn’t her job title at the White House Senior Advisor to the President? Accept a job with the POTUS and you better be prepared to accept scrutiny, especially if it looks like you’ve helped to try steal an election.
Or, as President Harry S. Truman famously said: “If you can’t stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.”

I will be very very surprised, shocked in fact (although delighted), if Trump or anyone else important suffers any legal repercussions for J6 or other acts during his Presidency.
I just don’t see that there is the political will by the Democrats or in the upper echelons of the Justice Department to actually do anything. Not to mention that the J6 Committee has a rapidly approaching expiry date.
The only Trump offspring who should be off-limits is Barron, because he’s young enough that that should be a given. (Never mind the fact that the GOP and their pundits have long since abandoned that principle–anyone else remember the abysmal treatment they gave to Chelsea Clinton?)
The rest? Yeah, all fair game.
That is according to the Groan.

I did a post on that one yesterday.
(Cough) Hunter Biden (cough).
