It has been upsetting to see this family drama played out like this. It is obvious to everyone that Michael is being shut out of the family.
Michael and the late Maureen were always more normal than than Patti and Ron Jr.! Michael is truly a class act. Patti never had all of her oars in the water, and Ron Jr. might as well be from a different planet.
I think Michael has two children. Not sure if Ron Jr. has any. Ron Jr. knows he can never be the equal of his dad....perhaps that explains his contrary attitude and "political leanings?"
Much will be explained as more time goes on, I am sure. God bless Michael for the love and respect he has for his dad and for what he has obviously always had to endure.
Michael does. I am sure that this fact pains Nancy as well.
