The topic came up in a 1988 interview with Opera. Trump was asked recently why he decided to run now. He said that he wanted to be certain the his three children were old enough to run the business successfully. if you own your own business,you would understand his reasoning.
The reasonable supposition to make. Though beggs the question that Donald Trump the man you always hires the best people the very best couldn’t hire someone to run a business till his children could take over. Although I would like to point out did 1988 in 2012 there’s a lot of time between those and at least one of his children was helping and run as companies which is why is understand trying to explain things hearing one of the fraud hearings.
