Trump earmarks funds to shield son Barron from potential Democratic probe

A recent report indicates that Donald Trump is reserving part of his $400 million personal war chest to defend his son Barron from a likely Democratic investigation. The 80-year-old former president has consistently warned that a Democratic majority in Congress after the November 3 midterms could trigger impeachment hearings against him. In anticipation of such a scenario, he is preparing financial resources to address any legal challenges involving his child.

This strategy underscores Trump's broader expectation of renewed partisan attacks once the opposition regains control of the legislative branch. No details were provided about the specific amount set aside or the mechanisms for its use. The move highlights the personal stakes Trump perceives in the forthcoming political landscape.
