Just thought I would publish my encounter with Trump's family in Raleigh. His son and daughter-in-law were very accessible and are a very down-to-earth couple. They support Donald wholeheartedly and are a very gracious couple. They echoed Trump's support for us, not the establishment.
Yes. If one can be judge a man by his children, Trump deserves much credit. So many wealthy kids are a mess, and his each have a great head on their shoulders and are well-accomplished in their own right. It’s one factor that makes me think he’d be okay as president. There are some good core character traits behind all the bluster.
I agree one of the reasons I may vote for him
I have respect for the way Trump’s children turned out. But it does make me a little queasy when I read that Chelsea and Ivanka are great friends.
Very active with St Jude Children’s Hospital here in Memphis
That's probably the flag at Mar-a-Lago, where Donald had to fight the Palm Beach town council who said it was "too big." He of course got to keep the flag after a court fight. Palm Beach had tried to fine him $150,000 while the matter was in dispute. He made a deal and donated $100,000 to wounded veterans instead to end the matter. Then he built a hill to put the flag up even higher! That was ten or twelve years ago.
Terrific video of Don Jr campaigning for his father, particularly about gun rights, but generally pro-America, pro-taxpayer:

The trump-bots are too enamoured by their messiah to notice. It seems Trump meets every accusation they throw at Cruz.
Great family; he should be so proud. I know he is! We’d be lucky to have the whole lot of them as First Extended Family.
Here’s an article I ran across while learning about the Trumps. It’s from about 10 years ago. I thought it was interesting and seems pretty fair.

This is the groundbreaking for the Old Post Office (Trump International Hotel) soon to open in DC.
Constructed 1892-99. I remember that building way back in the day when it was black as night from car exhaust, before the wave of power-washing in the 70s that cleaned up so many older cities on the east coast.
Shirley you jest. Ivanka looks more like Donald than either of his sons.
With the usual beagle. ;). Get the impression they are very nice people.
I’m not sure they are great friends, I think they run in the same social cicles and know each other. There’s a difference.
None of us “Trumpbots” refer to Trump as our Messiah - that distinction belongs to the Cruz crazies.
It doesn’t seem to bother you that Cruz is great friends with Glenn Beck.
