The Daily Signal - Victor Davis Hanson: Do Leftists Really Believe the Trump Family Wants Another Plane?

One of the most important reasons President Donald Trump won in 2024 was his very convincing case that the Biden family was corrupt. 

 

The president should act swiftly and make certain to an already hostile media that Qatar’s gift, the ‘palace in the sky’, is in keeping with ethical standards, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”

 

“It would be very wise—because Trump is at a critial point in his administration where he cannot bleed anything—to have an informal ethics adviser, in my opinion. And just to reassure this predatory media—not that you have to cater them or not that you have to listen to them—but just someone in the administration, an ethics czar, that advises all of the Trump family and associates to make a firewall between them and presidential assistance.”
