The first lady was one of a number of people who reacted to Karlan’s quip about the president’s youngest son before the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, December 4. Karlan, a witness for the House Democrats, used Donald Trump’s 13-year-old son as a reference point when asked to compare the president’s conduct to that of a monarch. “Kings could do no wrong, because the king’s words was law. And contrary to what President Trump has said, Article 2 [of the constitution] does not give him the power to do anything he wants,” Karlan said....
