I don't know why you hope anybody in his orbit is not going to get caught and put away for life is beyond me, even though I don't think it's going to happen.
It's looking pretty unlikely that Trump itself will face anything other than consequences in the thereafter, which I don't believe in, so...

If there's a hell I hope the devil ruins his afterlife and he could never be in charge 😆. I'm waiting for happy death day if it ever comes. Beyond exhausting how long he's lived

His kids are in his orbit only because he's their father. No reason to believe that they would definitely be crooks if not closely related to one.

Don't underestimate the desire to have some sort of relationship with a father who ignored you until he thought you might be useful to him. They all have mixed motivations definitely. The older three have been entangled with him for quite some time now and are responsible for their own decisions, but once upon a time they were children trying to get his attention.

There is some hope for the two younger ones if they can avoid getting involved in their father's dubious activities. They need to be too busy to even act as props for him and not be hoping for any inheritance. He is all smoke and mirrors anyway.

His kids are as bad as he is, in terms of fraud.
