Podhoretz: Trump Has a Get of Jail Free Card and It Spreads Down to His Family

EXCERPT:

PODHORETZ: "So right now, if there is a war between Jarvanka and Kelly, Kelly has the upper hand. That can switch on a moment's notice. I want to make one point. Something happened to Trump and the people around Trump those first couple of weeks when they were — after the election when they were looking into him, Trump divesting himself of his business, and his lawyers said, 'You don’t have to do this. You are the President of the United States. The executive branch flows from you. You can keep your businesses. You cannot be prosecuted for a crime.' And you remember that press conference? And like a light bulb went off over Trump’s head that said, 'I’m bullet proof. I’m in the clear.' And whether or not that weirdly flowed, this antinomian thing flowed down from him to Jared to all these people who came in with no government experience, I think that’s still very redolent in the White House. This idea that they have a get-out-of-jail-free card, or Trump at least has one and it sort of spreads down to his family."
