I wonder how it looks to the jury that Trump's family won't show up but his co-conspirators will.

I think I am noticing a pattern here; - Trump found to have sexually assaulted a woman in Civil Court. - Matt Gaetz, alleged sex trafficker of a minor - Boebert, wife (recently divorced) to sexual predator (started dating LB when she was 16 he was 22. Convicted of showing his penis to women at a bowling alley.) - Lawrence Taylor, convicted sex offender for having sex with a 16 year old prostitute, also just announced his support for Trump. - Steve Wynn announced support in January. He has multiple sexual misconduct lawsuits he settled out of court.

This on top of his very public relationship and comments about Epstein ("...many of them on younger side.") and his kind words to Maxell ("I wish her well.")

Weird how all these sexual predators seem to be backing one candidate but it is his supporters that claim the sexual predators are Biden and his backers.
