The search is sending tremors through the Republican Party, with members using the occasion to denounce federal law enforcement. (As best we know, none of them have even read the search warrant.) Their tantrums seem transparent: Conservatives know former President Donald Trump is prone to lawlessness, and they fear the Justice Department has him dead to rights.
Eric Trump has been affiliated with exactly one (1) White House: his dad’s. So he appears to be arguing that based on this experience, he’s certain a president would involve himself in a criminal investigation in connection with a political nemesis. Not the best defense to offer pops in a time of need, Eric.
To be clear, this would hardly be a revelation. In fact, Eric Trump's suggestion matches up with things we already know about his dad's public statements and his time in office.
I wrote in June about Donald Trump’s publicly expressed desire for the DOJ to investigate his critics and political opponents. From James Comey to Jeff Sessions to Bill Barr, Trump has routinely shown he sees law enforcement as his personal investigative team. His son all but confirmed it Tuesday — and at the worst time imaginable.

The second-oldest Trump son went on Fox News to defend his father's honor. It didn't go well.
