"I would not be surprised to find out it is Jared or one of his children," Cohen said.
"Who else would know about the existence of a safe and the specific contents kept inside?" he said.

(12,654 posts)We can see that TFG is a liability to establishment GOP, so can they.
Y'see, it's easier for mobsters and businesses to operate in an environment that has rules and laws (especially if they're flexible, but they still need to be there) than it is living in an environment of petulant chaos.
TFG's vision of America is like a online multiplayer shooter game. A fun time for a few hours for most, then rich troll who bought a couple loot crates smokes your ass and bullies all the noobs s/he sees for "fun" until the noob quits. That's not sustainable; even Liberatarian A-holes understand that.
TFG is getting cut loose. All but the true believers and his long-time sycophants are leaving him.

(11,277 posts)The first time I saw him on CNN during the early stages of the 2016 campaign and he was being interrogated about his bosss abusive behavior towards the gender he cherished. He was all-in before he wasnt. Thats for damned sure. GFY, until you atone for your servitude you were once so proud of. You built THIS.

This saga has been going on for over a year. It's been back and forth with Trump and the National Archives.
Archives contacted him.
They got some stuff back, but not much.

(15,220 posts)I dont see the kids or Jared turning on Donald. I dont doubt that they have the save myself first attitude; I just think they ALL have the attitude of it cant happen to me because Im a Trump.
Definitely not Melania. Shes the one most likely connected to Putin and does the reporting back.

(42,558 posts)but I've got to admit it never occurred to me that one of them would throw Donny under the bus. The three kids always seem like their own sense of self is completely wrapped up in being the son or daughter of Donald Trump. I guess you learn to talk that way pretty quick when the luxurious lifestyle you enjoy is completely dependent on staying in the good graces of a malignant narcissist.

(111,095 posts)...or both?
She made a statement yesterday that she would not be campaigning with her father and that she was splitting from the business partnership with her brothers.
No doubt, she and Jared have enough money after their 4 years of grifting in the White House and his big deal with the Saudis after he got out of the White House.
There are a lot of questions about Mr Jared. Ivanka is no shrinking violet.
