Recently, scandal-ridden ex-President Donald Trump held one of his crackpot MAGA-turned-Save-America rallies in Sioux City, Iowa, where he popped off with a bizarre statement to the crowd that left more than a few people wondering if one of Donald’s own children has sold him out, as footage of strange remark spreads like wildfire across social media.
Trump was in Sioux City in part to campaign for Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley and Gov. Kim Reynolds. Eventually, the topic of his speech turned to tax policy — something the former guy should be pretty familiar with these days, as the New York Attorney General Letitia James comes at him and his family business, the Trump Organization, with the full force of the law in her civil lawsuit against the company for alleged tax fraud schemes.
At one point in his spiel, the ex-president remarked on the notion of not handing down any sort of monies or inheritance to “horrible” children.
Donning his signature red “Make America Great Again” hat, Trump declared to his crowd that he has “virtually eliminated” the estate tax — something he morbidly and bizarrely refers to as the “death tax.”
But he was quick to point out that you don’t have to leave anything to the kids you don’t like.

“So that now, when you pass away, you can leave — if you like your child, I always say, if you don’t like, leave it to charity,” the scandal-ridden ex-president proclaimed to his supporters.
Trump, who’s a father of 5 children himself, went on to pointedly state, “Some of us have horrible children.”
“Do you have horrible children?” he asked his crowd. “Does anybody have, like a child, where you really are not going to leave your farm?”
The bizarre remarks left a lot of people wondering if something has happened within the Trump family behind closed doors:

It’s entertaining when he accidentally tells the truth.

Is Vanky started cooperating? She’s the only kid he cares about enough to reference.

So, which one has ratted on him?

Oooh, sounds like a threat. Somebody has flipped or he’s threatening them not to flip in the future, in the New York case, etc.
