Follow-up notable:

Why is a news channel constantly probing the adult children of the POTUS about issues in US politics?

They’re have no portfolio, no qualifications, and from a standard of decorum about the wall between their business and their father’s political position…ugh.

This is another thing that demonstrates where we are as a democracy with a press and a consuming audience of potential voters; this is another Not Normal.

It is important that emotional narratives are being presented as valid only when issued by a small group of people. It is important that the children of a world leader are being presented as sources of information and people of merit with no qualifying criterion other than their parentage.
