Classless move by a Democratic “witness”. Prof Karlan uses a teenage boy who has nothing to do with this joke of a hearing (and deserves privacy) as a punchline. And what’s worse, it’s met by laughter in the hearing room. What is being done to this country is no laughing matter.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) called the remark “absolutely disgraceful” while Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) tweeted that the comment was “gross and shameful.”
“Just when you thought this impeachment hoax couldn’t get anymore ridiculous, the witness invited by Democrats is throwing cheap shots at the 13 year old son of @realDonaldTrump,” Gosar wrote.
Democrats are so desperate that one of their biased witnesses is now attacking the President’s 13-year-old son.
Absolutely disgraceful.

Trump’s reelection campaign questioned why it has been scrutinized for its criticism of Democratic presidential candidate and former Vice President Joe Biden’s adult son Hunter Biden, but that Barron could be mentioned.
“So Hunter Biden is off limits, but 13 year old Barron Trump is not? This gets more unreal by the minute!” the campaign wrote.

“Only in the minds of crazed liberals is it funny to drag a 13-year-old child into the impeachment nonsense,” Trump campaign spokeswoman Kayleigh McEnany added in a statement.
“Pamela Karlan thought she was being clever and going for laughs, but she instead reinforced for all Americans that Democrats have no boundaries when it comes to their hatred of everything related to President Trump. Hunter Biden is supposedly off-limits according to liberals, but a 13-year-old boy is fair game,” she said.
“Every Democrat in Congress should immediately repudiate Pamela Karlan and call on her to personally apologize to the President and the First Lady for mocking their son on national TV.”
“How vile of a person do you have to be to attack a 13 year old child on national TV for laughs?” he tweeted. “Apparently, vile enough to be the supposed star witness for Democrats.”

Liberalism is a disease, this woman is sick.
If a Republican chairman bugged his Democrat counterpart or condemned their kids, it would be wall to wall coverage and outrage from the media whores.
How come Obama’s kids were off limits along with Chelsea and Amy Carter, but Barron is fair game.
