Lara Trump Suggests Kids Are DYING Because Trump Family Is Being Investigated

Lara Trump, the wife of Eric Trump, claimed on Fox News on Wednesday evening that children could actually be dying because New York Attorney General Letitia James is investigating the Trump family. This claim is based on the investigations into Eric's over-charging of charities for children with cancer, and he is now not allowed to serve on a charitable board, which Lara says is killing children. If anything, it is allowing MORE money to go to sick kids, as Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains.

Well folks, apparently children in this country are dying because of what New York attorney general Latisha James has done to the poor Trump family. Kids are dying. We're being told now because Latisha James went after the Trump family, you know, for their charitable fraud and won't let them run any charities anymore. Or at least of course, that is what Laura Trump, the wife of Eric Trump wants us to believe in an interview this week, of course, on Fox news, Laura Trump had this to say about all the children dying because the Trump family's been investigated. My husband started a charity to raise money for kids at St. Jude's children's hospital. When he was 22 years old, he raised 30 million for the kids of St. Jude and Latisha. James has such vitriol and hatred for anyone with the last name, Trump that she decided to investigate my husband's charity. Despite the fact that it had one of the lowest expense ratios of any private charity in America.

And unfortunately, guess who was hurt by that? It wasn't my husband. It's the kids of St. Jude who knows how many kids have died unnecessarily, thanks to her investigation and her vitriol and hatred for anyone with the last name. Trump, I like how you didn't say the Trump family. You're like anybody with the last name Trump cuz technically I'm not family. I just married into it. So I gotta make the caveat of anybody with the last name Trump. So I'm, I'm included. I'm I'm part of the persecution. Look at me. I'm so wonderful and great. And everybody knows who I am and cares. Totally nobody's died because Eric Trump isn't allowed to steal money from kids with cancer anymore. Laura and I love how you mess the, uh, uh, you know, left that part out. That's what your husband was busted doing. We had one of the lowest expense ratios.

Yep. But he still jacked it up to screw over St. Jude's. It doesn't matter what the ratio is. And by the way, I don't think for a second, you actually had one of the lowest. I think that is a bald face lie. He took millions, millions, and then charged hundreds of thousands for the use of a property that he owned. Like that's what gets me about the whole thing. He overcharged them for a property that he owned. He didn't have to charge him a dime. He could have actually written that off by the way, as a donated space and time and saved money on his taxes. But rather than save money on his taxes, he wanted to get the money up front. So we overcharged the charity. How many kids died because he took that money away from them. Laura, that's the question I have. That's the death count. I wanna see how many kids weren't able to get life saving treatment because Eric Trump said, oh, I've raised your millions. And then they only get a portion of it. They should have gotten all of it. He owned the space. He could have given it to them and donated it as a tax write off. And he would've still gotten the money except he'd

Have been, been taking it, you know, basically away from the federal government instead of kids with cancer. And I think all of us would agree. It's always better to not give the government money than to take money from kids with cancer, but your husband chose to do the latter. And that is why he's not allowed near a charity in the state of New York anymore.
