I couldn't get past the cadence and agitation...all I heard was somebody that is probably a hot head. It was disturbing to me and I never even listened to the words.

He is aptly named Donald Trump Junior. He's not a good man (and I use "man" loosely).

But I do tend to agree - and stated so yesterday - this may be the beginning of another political dynasty. Those children are sure getting a lot of exposure.

Trump understands branding.

I expect Ivanka to be really good and Eric too if he can overcome his natural introversion. They seem the most disciplined.
