That is going to be very hard, the Republican party has been honing their skills at this for generations.

It is ironic to call them Republicans, because sometimes they are anything but ... that party has been at the core of any movement to undermine our great republic for decades.

We have have all put up with R's dirty tricks for decades. Rolling our eyes. Heaving deep sighs.

Remember when Rs smeared Kerry, calling him a coward for his service in Vietnam? Rs have made an art out of smearing folks. Lee Atwater was even ashamed.

Trump just carried on that R tradition, accusing President Obama of not being a legitimate POTUS by virtue of his birth, falsely accusing him of criminal behavior, ... Then there were all the lies spread about Clinton by Rs and Trump's Russian team during the last election.

Gerrymandering is another favorite R strategy.

Purging voter rolls right before the election.

Electronic voting machines with no paper trail, so no way to verify or recount. Guess who supports that?

...

At every turn, Rs cheat and lie. Thanks to decade of this nonsense, we now have this ridiculous President who was selected by a minority of the voters with the obvious aid of a foreign nation.

Yikes!

Could it be that Trump might push us to quit sighing and rolling our eyes and do something about this before we lose our republic?
All of this.

I've seen some analyses of statistical anomalies in some states that just cannot be explained away by poor polling, etc.

But off-topic for this thread.

I agree with the others who have noted that the most likely explanations are either a) he doesn't want the scrutiny and/or b) he's getting ready to do a runner.

It will be interesting to see if there is any response from Mueller's team.

I guess we all assumed you turned off InoWars at least an hour or two a day. I guess not.

These people are targets for both murder and kidnapping. "Any" adult child over some cutoff age that could not afford the protection becomes a monstrous liability. This isn't just about protecting their lives, it's also protecting national interests. Like it or not their safety is a national interest.
Why is Trump Jr's safety in the national interest? He certainly didn't care about the U.S. national interest when he met with the Russians.

If he's getting ready to high tail it to a nation without an extradition treaty, he doesn't need to shake the SS. He could just plan a business trip and then stay.

I suspect that he doesn't want the scrutiny as he tries to figure out how to extricate the family from this mess.

Regardless of his behavior, we would still need to ransom the rascal.
