Star is Born? Donald Trump, Jr.’s Impressive Morning Joe Appearance
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 11/08/2016 7:34:38 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Ivanka has attracted attention as the Trump most likely to have a significant political future. But don’t sleep on Donald Trump, Jr. Appearing on today’s Morning Joe, Trump, Jr. was impressively thoughtful, articulate, substantive and nuanced, without for one second backing down from making his case forcefully and unapologetically.

For a taste of Trump, Jr., view the video as he unblinkingly attacks the double standard, asserting that any average American who had done what Hillary did with her email would be in jail. And when Eugene Robinson of the Washington Post scoffs at his assertion that African-Americans and Hispanics speak encouragingly to family members, Trump, Jr. politely rebuffs him.

View the video here.

I’ve been impressed with Trump Jr, Ivanka and Pence.

The GOPe should be praying Trump wins because otherwise their worst nightmare is about to start. Of course they are to arrogant and insulated to do that but you can’t say they haven’t been warned.

Watched that clip just to see if it reinforced my existing impression - and it did. Don Jr. (with no offense to Sr.) has all of the qualities that some people find lacking in his father. He is more articulate, less bombastic, and of course has an entirely different track record as a family man than Donald accumulated over his years. It will be interesting to see where he goes and what he chooses to do, because like his father “he’s got a pretty good life” as-is.

Eugene Robinson was, is, and always will be just a dumbass Democrat plantation Black. Without Dem talking points, he couldn’t carry on a conversation.

I really like Donald Trump Jr, maybe more than his father, very impressive guy, but he is not a natural born citizen. His mother was still a foreign national when he was born.

When was the last time you saw a young American family on public display come off as mature and together as that? Congratulations to the father.

Eugene Robinson, the Communist lawn jockey in the front yard of the White, Ruling Class Plantation.

Saw the interview this morning. He did well. And didn’t play the jive game of shifting the focus of the question like Kellyanne does. One thing I did notice is they would sometimes cut away from the questioner to him as the question was being posed, and he was not liking the questions even though for MSNBC they were pretty straight out and fair.

If you go back to his early years, Trump Sr was much like Jr.

It's the fight that forced Sr. to play accordingly.

Go back and view the video in which Congress appealed to Trump for input on the economy. I think it was 1988.

No, the Constitution does not go away.

Trump Jr also caught my eye early on, but came to appreciate Eric as much. His wife has been very involved, campaigning very actively for the women vote.

Where was Trump Jr born?. If he was born in the U.S. and the father is a natural born citizen, then he is a natural born citizen too. You only need one parent. This is also the case of my son. He was born in California of American father and foreign mother.

Don and Eric are both very, very good.

And don’t seem to be garden-variety liberals like Ivanka.

I don’t see Ivanka running for office, but I do see one or both sons running at some point.

Born here of citizen parents.
Naturally a US citizen because there is no other possibility.

Children of foreign nationals inherit the option of being something else.

Congratulations to the father.

Its how we were all raised, right FREEPS?

This is what I reflect most from Donald J Trump is that I was raised the same way.

Hard work, no hand out(well, Dad helped us but we would never dream of asking its what good parents do).

With a HS education I have paid my house and saved half million for retirement. I will never be a burden on society.

Oh wait.....................

Damn it. Ugh. That is horrible. Oh well maybe Governor or Senator someday. A real shame he is not natural born citizen.
