Lara Trump, the daughter-in-law of Donald Trump, said the former president was “shocked” when he learned that hordes of FBI agents had descended on his Mar-a-Lago property in Florida and were raiding it.
Speaking to Fox News host Will Cain, who was filling in for Tucker Carlson, Lara Trump was asked: “Have you spoken to the former president, how is he doing, what is the attitude of the family?”
“I have spoken to my father-in-law. I got to tell you, you know, he’s as shocked as anybody,” she responded. “I think for someone – and anyone quite frankly – who loves this country, and believes in America, this should shake you to your core. What has happened today. This is a very clear demarcation in the history of America.”
“Never before, as many of you guests have already talked about, will, have we seen something like this happen, where an unannounced raid by the FBI is conducted on a former president of the United States,” she noted. “Think about this. If this is what they’re able to do to the former President of the United States, think about they could do to you, to anybody in America.”

So who you gonna believe? A Trump in-law or AG Merrick Garland?
Hard for me to believe that there ever come a time that I would side with Trump over the FBI but the time has finally come
A Trump appointed Magistrate and a Trump appointed FBI Director approved the search. Advance notice in this type of action gives criminals a chance to destroy evidence.
By now Donald Trump has seen the warrant and the list of what was taken. Instead of complaining why doesn’t he provide the warrant and list to the news media?
Huju,
I don’t believe garland
Didn’t he once say, ” Anyone being investigated by the FBI is not qualified to be president of the USA”. He mentioned it several times, 8/3/16, 9/7/16, 10/15/16, 10/20/16, 10/20/16, 10/21/16, 10/25/16, 10/30/16.
The Nazi Sicherheitsdienst would NEVER have gone after Hitler like this.
How dare the FBI not show Trump the same deference?
Cry for me Argentina, because I will not. The Hungarians say, whoever has butter on their head should not go under the sun. A boy killed his parents and cried, have mercy on me I became an orphan. Trump should not do things that he gets raided for.
It’s Emile Zola
It seems Lara is as clueless as her father-in-law. There was no “raid”. Federal law enforcement officials served a warrant and conducted a lawful search which as Yaakov Doe notes above were approve by TRUMP appointees. (Magistrates are judicial officers appointed by District Court Judges). Lara can go on Fox and cry “gevalt” but she is simply reinforcing a well known reputation as poorly prepared and profoundly inept apologist for Trump.
Emil Zola is a dead French writer. This a made up name that my husband and I registered long before he was nifter.
Amil Zola, are you seriously comparing the investigation into Hillary’s bitbleached server (BTW, they completely ignored all her Clinton Foundation mud) to the ongoing bogus Trump Russian collusion hoax that never seems to end no matter how many nails that coffin already has?
@HuJu:
I dont believe Merrick Garland, he tends to be full of it.
@Emil Zola:
The French writer is not the only dead thing here. Check on your brain. I cant believe you took the time to dig up all those sources for a YWN article comment.
@Yaakov Doe:
Not everyone appointed by Trump were bosses like he was. Remember Scaramucci?

@”GadolHatorah”:
You seem to me like the guy with no job who watches CNN in his mothers basement. See comment to @yaakov doe as well.
@youknowimright:
I know you’re right!
