Apparently Trump's father was the one who encouraged him to get into real estate. I wonder how much pressure DT felt to please his father, especially after his older brother died? I've seen photos of DT when he was a young father, tenderly holding his children as babies, even changing diapers - how and when and WHY did he go so wrong?jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-80309036877520751832017-01-15T20:24:27.181+00:002017-01-15T20:24:27.181+00:00I was looking on the bright side!I was looking on the bright side!Lesley UKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12690616440969201231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-45585255284950396812017-01-15T20:12:40.952+00:002017-01-15T20:12:40.952+00:00Maybe we are all wrong about Mr Trump, As Monty Py...Maybe we are all wrong about Mr Trump, As Monty Python used to sing...

My first impression is that the face is much too serious for a child. Not a hint of a smile, and doesn't he appear a little frightened?<br />Apart from that, the diary makes for an interesting read. I would like to know what the young counsellor did for the rest of the summer, and whether he gave up working with kids altogether after that.<br /><br />Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-26594365718988668702017-01-15T10:36:05.588+00:002017-01-15T10:36:05.588+00:00I know Damien wasn't blond but the photo on th...I know Damien wasn't blond but the photo on the left made me shiver.Shooting Parrotshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07503757845024102476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-25768309999257525662017-01-15T09:45:09.277+00:002017-01-15T09:45:09.277+00:00I admire the fact that you have researched this Ky...I admire the fact that you have researched this Kylie Looking at lots of images of him could cause psychological disturbance.Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-26180601051814275322017-01-15T09:41:33.819+00:002017-01-15T09:41:33.819+00:00I do but I am a little unsure what you mean by tha...I do but I am a little unsure what you mean by that Graham.Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-71050838751406158032017-01-15T09:39:53.775+00:002017-01-15T09:39:53.775+00:00As a boy he was often badly behaved and a natural ...As a boy he was often badly behaved and a natural bully.
