The Trump kids are having a huge impact on people's perceptions of Trump. In a world where kids can get totally screwed up by the time they become adults, the Trump kids are displaying a poise a lot of people admire.

They naturally conclude the dad can't be that bad. He might even be pretty darn decent and worth voting for.

His brand is too toxic.

Unpleasant truths are always toxic to those who wish to hide from the truth.

I do not remember who said it last night but.....”You can’t ‘fake’ good kids!” That is a classic line.

And Chelsea, should she speak at the Dem convention, will do nothing to help her mother and reveal the stark difference between her and the Trump children; and with Bill looking all of 99 years’ old these days will leave everyone aghast, thus being the topic of conversation.

Hmmmmm.....next US political dynasty, replacing the Bushes and Kennedys???

Donald Jr. is already legally of age to run for president (38....the Constitution only requires 35).

Those kids did their father proud.

I would feel my life’s work is fulfilled just with kids like this.

The whole family comes across as so wholesome that comparing them to the Clintons is a great asset for us.

Add to the kids themselves: Trump’s obvious love toward them; and add to that: Trump’s talent for being a good boss and mentor and a congenial, fun guy. And then don’t forget his obvious personal leadership skills. This convention has been a roaring success when it comes to humanizing and softening Trump, and showing his good side.

You can’t fake great kids. Was that Pence?

The Trump kids are a game changer.

They are not only good looking, they are sharp, and can represent the candidate to good effect. So can Mike Pence.

They will be able to fan out and cover a half dozen outlets at once.

Hillary will have a mob of apparatchiks as surrogates, but the kids will be celebrities like the candidate himself.

It gives the Trump campaign more media power, and more targets to disperse Hillary’s resources for smearing.

I agree, when I saw Don Jr in NV earlier in the campaign, he was quite impressive.

At first I was surprised that Barron wasn't there. And that Melania went home to be with him. Unlike the Obama daughters, I get the feeling they're not going to use their son as a prop.

They’re likeable and the Trump kids are adult children with careers and marriages and they don’t look the stereotypical image of rich kid snobs with a trust fund.

So people can relate to them and every one wishes their kids were like them. And that helps make Trump seem more personable.

His best asset is his family.

After 8 years of dowdy, weird, trampy, I am craving the poise & attractiveness of the Trump clan. Maybe they’ll help restore a certain social/fashion sense to the White House.

I admit that I never paid much attention to Donald Trump or his family, beyond the occasional tabloid story. I noticed some years ago that Invanka Trump had a line of clothing and accessories, but I had hardly ever heard of her and assumed that she was a sort of Paris Hilton spoiled rich girl who fancied herself an entrepreneur and had daddy buy her a company to put her name on. Boy, was I wrong! This election season has introduced me to the whole family, and I am favorably impressed! Maybe I’ll go buy those Invanka Trump shoes I’ve had my eye on for some time now....
