Eliza Relman

... If this statement marks the definitive end of the Trump–Bannon relationship — as Erick Erickson notes, there’s still reason to be skeptical that it will — then Trump just made one of the best decisions of his presidency ...

... There are good and decent people who work in this White House ...

you can build homes, walls, chimneys and similar with bricks. Ivanka's only function seems to be looking vacantly pretty on TV.

that she's the ideal Republican woman - blonde hair, vacantly pretty, dumb as a brick and has big fake boobs. If she's not indicted & convicted in the coming year or two, she has a future on Fox News.

unaired (I believe it was unaired though you can find it easily on YouTube) clip from Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous when he was married to Marla. Marla looks VERY unhappy in the interview, and I think it was shortly after this that they separated. Trump answers a few questions about infant Tiffany, and his comments are unbelievable, even for him. He says that his baby daughter got her mother’s “legs” and maybe her mother’s breasts though he can’t be sure yet.

What a great dad! And yeah Ivanka has never struck me as particularly bright. She can memorize talking points, hire people to imitate high-end products in her cheapo fashion line, and she can nod when appropriate. Also, she can sit still for hair processing and makeup. None of that suggests “genius” to me. And Don Jr and Eric? Lmfao. Poor Tiffany (though she’s very lucky she escaped — she will be very thankful for this as she gets older and realizes what she would have been in for with that creep. Something tells me that whatever he is holding back with respect to Ivanka would have been unleashed on Tiffany). Barron doesn’t even seem to like his father (and his mother doesn’t seem to like Trump much either)
