This isn’t the first time members of the president’s family received suspicious or threatening envelopes in the mail. This time Vanessa Trump was hospitalized after opening the envelope in her home. While she is alright, it was only corn starch, the idea that the Trump family endures this kind of hate, is just despicable.
NBC News has the details:
The suspicious letter that sent President Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law to a Manhattan hospital was postmarked from Boston and appeared to contain corn starch, multiple senior law enforcement officials told NBC News.
The letter was addressed to Vanessa Trump’s husband, Donald Trump Jr., the president’s eldest son, officials said.
The Trump family expressed disgust over the Monday incident.
“No one deserves to be frightened this way,” Donald Jr.’s sister Ivanka tweeted.
Donald Trump Jr. called it “disgusting” in a tweet but said everyone was safe.
Thankful that Vanessa & my children are safe and unharmed after the incredibly scary situation that occurred this morning. Truly disgusting that certain individuals choose to express their opposing views with such disturbing behavior.

The letter was addressed to Vanessa Trump’s husband, Donald Trump Jr., the president’s eldest son, officials said.
The NYPD said the white powder in the envelope was deemed to be non-hazardous and was taken to a lab for further analysis. More testing is being done, but officials said it appeared the substance was harmless corn starch.
“How disturbed must a person be to do what they did to a mother of five children?” Michael Cohen, President Trump’s personal attorney, said in a statement. “This dangerous and reckless act goes beyond political differences.”
How despicable is it that the entire Trump family is targeted by these disturbed people?
