Who is the press figure?
Frederick Trump
Later life and death
In 1908, Trump bought real estate on Jamaica Avenue in Woodhaven. Two years later, he moved his family into the building on the land, renting out several rooms. He also worked as a hotel manager at the Medallion Hotel on 6th Avenue and 23rd Street.[4]:112 Trump intended to continue buying more land, but during World War I he kept a low profile because of anti-German feelings in the US due to the war. German-born citizens came under suspicion.[4]:113–115
The family story of his death is that “on May 29, 1918, while walking with his son Fred, Trump suddenly felt extremely sick and was rushed to bed. The next day, he was dead. What was first diagnosed as pneumonia turned out to be one of the early cases of the Spanish flu, which caused millions of deaths around the world.[4]:116” At his death his net holdings included a 2-story, 7-room home in Queens; 5 vacant lots; $4,000 in savings; $3,600 in stocks; and 14 mortgages. Altogether his net worth was $31,359 ($528,831 in 2019 dollars).[4]:118 His wife and son Fred continued his real estate projects under the Elizabeth Trump & Son moniker.
I am always amazed how Pence can stand behind Trump when he starts going off script, and never change expression
While doing the initial Vetting I read several biographies about him. His grandmother left with three children actually started the construction business. E Trump & Son. She sent Fred to Trade school to learn electric, plumbing and building skills while he was still in high school. She did the paper work and he did the repairs after school and then they flipped the property. Grandma continues to work for company until death. ( about the time DJT was ready to start college)
A single mother raising three children ( putting all three through higher education) Daughter went to business school to keep the family books. Mom wanted John to be an architect. He worked a deal with Fred who by then was paying the bills to become an engineer.
Did not know this - thanks, jenny.
So, Judy... hmmm.... well, so, you know, I’m like going “Cool beans, Judy! so, you, like, noticed that!”
That’s, like, so awesome!

Yum, NIKK!
I’m making a sopapilla cheesecake and will also bring some Diet Cokes on ice!
She. Just saw video above.

NEW: Trump's virus briefings are scoring "Monday Night Football"-level ratings. But should TV networks be covering them live? https://t.co/ZDkMV2U8Oq— Michael M. Grynbaum (@grynbaum) March 25, 2020
Of course they should. Sure Trump rambles and boasts and lets unserious reporters bait him. But Pence does a crisp job of outlining what’s being done and Drs. Fauci and Birx have been superb in explaining the virus and how to interpret the new data coming in every day. https://t.co/bdjhU6fWpk— Brit Hume (@brithume) March 25, 2020
James is back on twitter! James Woods.
I’m killing myself laughing here - James Woods twitter. You gotta see it lol.
Is it me, or is @realDonaldTrump getting bigger while reporters have shrunk and shrunk until they are now just teensy tiny little creatures screaming stupid questions in squeaky little voices that seem to be coming from very far away? https://t.co/kJSY1TS6BV— Andrew Klavan (@andrewklavan) March 25, 2020
Uh... 20th Century: WWI, the Spanish Flu, Bolshevik Revolution, WWII, Korean War, Vietnam, Cuban Missle Crisis, birth of Hillary Clinton. So the answer is decidedly no... https://t.co/o6xMzdLXj5— James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) March 26, 2020
Did you see naked Hillary on the roof of his car. Oh goodness, I laughed. He’s so funny.
I am still laughing
