Justice Kennedy’s son, Justin, spent more than a decade at Deutsche Bank, rising to become head of real estate capital markets, and he worked closely with Trump when he was a real estate developer. During Kennedy’s tenure, Deutsche Bank became Trump’s most important lender. https://t.co/24JvMtETE5

Justice Anthony Kennedy’s son worked closely with Donald Trump at Deutsche Bank, which loaned Trump over $1 billion when other banks were reluctant to do so. Late last year, Trump’s administration waived punishments for Deutsche Bank.https://t.co/qPz4gNjy00

Less here than meets the eye, probably, but the Anthony Kennedy I thought I knew wouldn’t have let so smelly a situation develop. Historians will have a field day unearthing the details of this messy situation. . . https://t.co/mCm8vIptiX
