Click to enlargeTRUMP!

I have to comment here. After 8 years of a failed presidency, failed economy, failed international relations, failed deals and decisions we are ready for a huge change.

Anyone who would even consider the lying, dishonest, corrupt and phony Hillary needs to have their brain checked out. And, if you're a Bernice supporter, you need a lobotomy. How can you not vote for Trump!

And, if you say he is divisive, misogynistic, hater, prejudiced, etc, you don't know Trump and you believe the left wing loon reports and propaganda. If you do, you're probably too stupid to live. :-)

Like it or not he will be our next President, thank GOD!

Trump family history - concise version.

* Donald Trump's grandparents immigrated to the U.S. from Alsace (Kallstadt, Germany) which throughout history has been alternately French and German. The Trumps are German, originally speaking the same German dialect as the Amish of Lancaster County, PA.

* He returned to Germany to marry his childhood neighbor, Elizabeth Christ.

* The newly married Trumps resettled in the Borough of Queens NY

* Freidrich was establishing a Real Estate business in Queens when he died suddenly at age 49 (1918).

* In 1920, at the age of 15, Fred Trump (Freiderich's son and Donald's father), started a business partnership with his widowed mother called Elizabeth Trump & Son.

* This business was built upon the real estate holdings that his father, Frederich, had amassed (worth about $500,000.00 in today's dollars). This is the original "seed money" of the current Trump Organization.

* Elizabeth & Fred remained close business partners her entire life (she died in 1966).

* All (or nearly all) of the building of Elizabeth Trump & Son's non-government building was residential property in Queens.

* Fred Trump died in 1999 (age 94) - beloved and worth between $250 million and $300 million. His wife died a year later.

In some of these, such as model management, his firm has risen to the top of that particular industry.

The Political Trump:

about 1967 - 1987 - Democrat (he was a supporter of Ronald Reagan)

1987 - 1999 - Republican

1999 - 2001 - Reform Party (he supported Ross Perot)

2001 - 2009 - Democrat

2009 - 2011 - Republican

2011 - 2012 - Independent

2012 - Present - Republican

Donald Trump was openly supportive of Mitt Romney's candidacy.

Donald Trump does not seem to hold political party organizations in high regard.

For the most part, his political involvement has been for practical reasons.

Donald Trump does not appear to be held to political ideology. Some of my take aways:

* Trump has an extraordinarily energetic central nervous system much like Teddy Roosevelt but more targeted to industry and enterprise.

* Trump's presidency will be very energetic, transparent, and communicative.

* Trump will be a very hard working President.

* His interaction with his older brother (who everybody loved) tells me that he thinks that everybody is like him - or wants to be - or should be.

* His relationship with his older brother was a hard lesson in tolerance for him.

* Trump is the Babe Ruth of career achievements.

* He is dumb like a fox. When you think he just said something stupid - he didn't. It's just that you were not his target audience.

* Trump knows the people - the folk.

* His son, Donald Jr. is right. Trump is a "Blue Collar Billionaire".

* More than anything, his TV show, The Apprentice, was his passion. He wants all Americans to have confidence (like he does) to venture.

* Donald Trump is attracted to and marries smart, high achieving women.

* The highest levels of a Trump Administration is certain to have many women - and they will be bright and assertive.

* Donald Trump's children are very important to him. And it shows.

And I might add.... And, it shows as you never hear anything adverse about his children who were brought up right! They're hard working and don't flaunt their wealth. In plain English - a good American family.
