The extreme defense

The Result

The defense submits that the situation surrounding the cult leader’s children is a tragic consequence of a complex family dynamic rather than a straightforward case of neglect. The defense might argue that Dan Mackenzie’s change of heart reflects a deep-seated family conflict rather than an indictment of his father’s actions.

What Trump Did

The defense might suggest that the cult leader’s actions should not be viewed in isolation but rather as part of a larger narrative of familial dysfunction that has been exacerbated by external pressures.

Why Supporters Credit Him

Supporters might argue that this case highlights the need for compassion and understanding in the face of such tragic circumstances. The defense admits that while the situation is dire, it is not solely the fault of the cult leader.

The Supporting Record

The defense submits that Dan’s decision to report his grandmother indicates a desire to seek help rather than a straightforward condemnation of his father.

If this is Trump's fault, his supporters will gladly let him take the blame.
