Trump Stands Up to Judge Going After His Kids: ’Leave My Children Alone’
Hateful and self-righteous political operatives recognize no bounds. But when they target a man’s family for political advantage, they should expect him to fight back.
Early Wednesday morning on Truth Social, former President Donald Trump fought back against Judge Arthur Engoron, the New York Democrat presiding over the Star Chamber show trial masquerading as a fraud case.
“Leave my children alone, Engoron. You are a disgrace to the legal profession!” Trump wrote at the end of a lengthy post.
In her obsession with taking down the former president, New York Attorney General Letitia James brought a “fraud” case that features, as Trump correctly noted, no actual victims aside from the Trump family.
As part of that case, wherein James asserted that Trump inflated the value of his holdings to gain financial advantages, Engoron arbitrarily and hilariously valued Trump’s sprawling Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, at only $18 million.
Now, the former president’s children will have to take the stand. After all, James must perpetuate this farce and smear as many members of the Trump family as possible.
According to NBC News, James’ office plans to call Donald Trump Jr. to testify on Wednesday. Eric Trump will follow on Thursday.
Even Ivanka Trump, though not a defendant in the case thanks to an earlier appeals court ruling, will take the stand on Friday.
With the characteristic hubris of a tyrant committed to destroying her perceived enemies, James described the former president’s daughter as still “under the control of the Trump Organization.” Such sweeping language barely conceals the attorney general’s determination to persecute Trump and anyone close to him.
This broader persecution aimed at Trump’s family, of course, did not begin with James.
Lest we forget, in June the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office sought access to former first lady Melania Trump’s White House communications.
The former president has put on a brave public face, but sources have reported that in private the ordeal has taken a toll.
Amid that turmoil, Melania has acted as a calming influence. She also reportedly “shares her husband’s view — and anger — that most of these legal issues are ‘election interference by his political rivals.’”
In his lengthy Truth Social post, Trump called the current New York proceeding a “Rigged Trial.” He referred to James as “Racist” and Engoron as a “Trump and developer Hating Judge.”
None of this must strike the former president as new. After all, he has seen rigged proceedings on a national scale. He has dealt with hate-filled political opponents who made their enmity personal. He can fight them. In fact, for eight years he has not stopped fighting them, and he often has done so with a smile.
Targeting his family, however, constitutes the crossing of a line that no man can bear with good cheer.
His soulless opponents, of course, will protest that the Trump children are fair game. As adults and members of the Trump Organization, they require no special treatment.
That would be true if the entire case did not amount to special treatment of the most insidious kind. Under the cover of institutions designed to seek justice, Trump’s political opponents have targeted him for unique persecution.
Everyone knows this, including the attorney general and the presiding judge. Yet, much as they do in totalitarian regimes, they cover their state-sponsored crimes in self-righteousness.
A man can bear such evils when they affect him alone.
As history has shown, however, tyrants never stop with the man himself. Eventually, they always come for his family.

Endure. It raises important questions about the fairness and impartiality of the justice system. Is the judge’s bias compromising the integrity of the case? Are the Trump children being unfairly targeted for political gain? Should there be consequences for judges who abuse their power for political motives
Judge. They know that this case is politically motivated and lacks any real substance. But they continue to press on, hoping to tarnish the Trump family’s reputation and score political points.
Trump recognizes the injustice of these actions and refuses to stand idly by while his children are dragged into this mess. He knows that his children are innocent and that this case is nothing more than a sham.
In his post on Truth Social, Trump passionately defended his children and denounced Judge Engoron as a disgrace to the legal profession. He made it clear that he will not allow his family to be used as pawns in a political game.
And he is right to fight back. No man should have to endure the pain and stress of having his children targeted in such a way. The Trump family has already been through enough, and it is time for this political persecution to end.
Unfortunately, this is not the first time that the Trump family has been subjected to such treatment. Melania Trump’s communications were sought by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, adding more stress to an already difficult situation.
But amid all the turmoil, Melania has remained a source of strength for her husband. She believes that these legal issues are nothing more than election interference by political rivals and stands by her husband’s side.
The Trumps are no strangers to rigged proceedings and hate-filled opponents. They have faced unimaginable scrutiny and personal attacks throughout their time in the public eye. And yet, they continue to fight for what they believe in, sometimes even with a smile on their faces.
But targeting their family crosses a line that no one should have to
