I happened to see one of the "news" shows on MSNBC and the host referred to the Trump kids as spoiled brats that have accomplished nothing and simply "work for daddy".

What does that say to the average American? We are all unaccomplished? Lazy? Some of us spoiled? It sounded pretty elitist. I know a lot of sons and daughters that work for their family's business - are they bad people?

Why call out Trump kids for being wealthy? Sounds like an attempt at class warfare...rich people are bad because they're rich.

I refuse to let the media and political pundits try to influence my vote. My mind is already made up, and has been for the past year.

Go Trump!

There is an agenda in play. It is so transparent even if they are not. The Dems and their bought and paid for media sidekicks just want to continue piling more, and more, and more of anything and everything onto Trump in an attempt to mask all of the dysfunction occurring within their own party. Of course it doesn't help that Trump can't keep his mouth shut.

Trump NOT keeping his mouth shut is what got him this far.

... As opposed to one of the "news" shows on Fox News Channel? Which is pure 100 percent GOP propaganda I suppose? LOL!

Bless your heart ... I'm not sure what you're upset about. The Trump children do indeed come off as creepy rich spoiled brats, which according to their father is a sacrifice on par with losing your life on the battlefield. Oh, and it's not the "leftist" mainstream media making this s*** up -- Donald Trump is saying this stuff himself -- ON THE RECORD -- while respectable journalists and *TRUE* Republican Party loyalists shake thier heads in utter dismay.

HOW CAN A CANDIDATE FOR US PRESIDENT BE THIS STUPID?! When his supporters are even MORE stupid!

I have more respect for Trumps kids then I do for him. Eric Trump should be the candidate, not Donald.

1. What does Fox have to do with anything I said?
2. Who's upset?
3. Why are you calling people stupid?

What respectable journalists? Let me say that again. What respectable journalists...you mean "journalists" like Maria Cardona? CNN couldn't even hold it's own contributors accountable for their involvement in the DNC WikiLeaks email debacle. Respectable journalists hold leaders accountable on both sides of the isle.

They all seem like well grounded and intelligent young people--being born in wealth does not guarantee this! The parents must have done something right. Most kids benefit somehow from wealthy and influential parents, like Chelsea Clinton's $600,000 salary for being a "special correspondent". It is what it is.
