I’ve seen some reports leaning into the idea that the “rat” who gave the Feds the info they needed to search Mar-A-Largo, might have been a Trump family member.
Process of elimination would suggest it isn’t Eric (too dumb, too scared), or Don Jr. (too dumb, too stoned), or Baron (too young, too sheltered). Tiffany lacks access, leaving only Ivanka, and Melania.
I would not doubt Ivanka has it in her to turn on TFG, if it profited her enough to do so. But she has distanced herself from dear old dad, and I don’t know if she had enough access of late, especially after the J6 hearings she participated in.
Which leaves us with Melania. Melania, who slapped her husband’s hand away more often than I ever saw her hold it. Melania, who has given plenty of reason to believe she is cold, so cold (“I don’t care, do you?”), and fully capable of betraying TFG. Melania, who seems to force every smile, who frowns and scowls as her norm, and who never seems happy.
And truly, if it is family, Melania has the best reason to get out while the getting is good — once his legal troubles fully close in, there won’t be much $$$ left for her to grab in a divorce.
And why not turn on TFG? It would be a path to immunity from potential prosecution, and she reportedly watched the search with some enthusiasm. She has intimate knowledge of, well, pretty much everything, I imagine, and would be uniquely positioned to guide a search.
If I were a betting man, and the “rat” turns out to be family, I’d place a large wager on it being Melania…
Edited to change “Ivana” to “Ivanka” (except in poll, which I couldn’t change), I didn’t notice spellcheck changing it…
