Perhaps we are finally seeing some progress towards seeing this horrible un-

American man get what he truly deserves--justice, and I really hope some time in jail.

Whether right or wrong to do so, Trumps throwing each other or anyone else under the bus to save themselves is a family trait apparently. Dear old dad has almost perfected the process.

Given that that this entire family is an expert in finger-pointing, I am concerned that in her testimony she tried to move the blame away from her despicable "Godfather" and onto his inner circle/advisors.

I have read multiple times over the past year, it was just a matter of when, not if, one Trump threw at least one of the others under the bus. Invanka got there first.

I will believe Ivanka threw her father under the bus when I see the tire marks on his body and not before

I think the only difference between the informed public and the DoJ is the number of nails needed in this coffin.

Isn’t throwing a family member under the bus for improved inheritance position a tried-and true Trump family tradition? Maybe some family traditions are just destiny.

No matter what she said she will hopefully live the rest of her life as a social pariah.

If Trump goes down because of the testimony of his daughter and son-in-law, the irony may cause Mar-e-lago to implode. I guess Ivanka and Jared are tired of being social pariahs.

So what did she testify?

Because this is public forum, I'll keep my comments clean.

Ivanka and Jared saw the train coming. They both high tailed it out of there in advance to avoid the defecation hitting the oscillating mechanism as much as possible. Her showing up on Jan 6th was her playing the dutiful daughter in support of her father. The testimony and cooperation of those two was scripted and (probably to them) well played. They both knew they could not plead total ignorance, but they could mitigate their roles. When they witnessed first-hand the lighting and subsequent burning of the village following the inaugural "speech", they developed and solidified their plan to get all they can while they could (Getting a high security clearance was a real boost). They knew also if they made the effort appear to be a part of the inner circle, while not really being in the circle, then maybe, just maybe high society will associate her in name only with he who provided 1/2 of her DNA. May be, just may be society will say "Awww!" to the two of them and forgive them their trespasses, thus paving the way for their re-introduction into high society. I mean after all, there is no way they could be like those or as bad as those that spawned them. Yeah, right. I say shake that tree hard enough and you will see the real fruit that falls down.
