that his girlfriend was sharing dick pics (presumably him) with staffers at Fox. Ick. Trying not to think about that since this morning.

Why is he slumming it at the airport - when we pay for 'security' and travel for the trump kids?

even if it was years ago people don't change that much!

I can see why he divorced her, was she always a republican or is this new?

wealthy men for quite some time apparently. The father of her son is also wealthy — note that despite her “family values” like other Fox types she has a sketchy marriage/divorce history and has had affairs with married men (that’s the rumor about her and Trump Jr anyway).

I think Newsom realized the mistake fairly quickly, and I think she was playing a role to win him over because of his family $$$ and future political career (it was obvious he was going to be a star). He is remarried to a woman who seems much more appropriate for him.

She has been rumored to engage in all sorts of bad behavior to become a “star” at Fox. You can guess what the rumors entail.

he may not always request it.

Alternately, maybe he has one to drop him off and to meet him, but doesn't travel with them.

Never has a guy who knows so much been able to say so little. He's almost Godlike in that respect.

Also, Jr. flying commercial? What happened, did they stiff the pilot on the Trump jet?

They don't seem to be the type that travel with the public when they can avoid it. They may not be broke, but they almost surely are leveraged to the hilt and likely Don't have free cash flow. Maybe Ivanka closing her clothing line was due to finances, will be interesting once her employees start talking about severance.

If I remember right he smacked him around when he picked him up at college and he did not have a shirt and tie on. He looks like regular people and we know Daddy dearest doesn't think they are regular people.

But those definitely don’t look like First Class seats. They seem a little snug.....cheek by jowl.

If Junior is trying to travel incognito as a Red Neck, he passes the test. He could be a dead ringer for my ex-brother-in-law.

Donald Trump Jr. has hit out at a newspaper article that mentioned he flew economy class on a commercial airline, questioning why that would surprise people.

Agents are supposed to cover their protectees, not stand around at the back of the SUV helping with the luggage like a staffer or personal assistant.

If he's an agent, I wonder how long he'll stay on the detail long once his superiors see these pictures.

And Mueller would have security, which I don't see.

Could be him, but doesn't look like him to me.
