President Donald Trump would be a “step down,” GOP candidate’s son says
If the White House isn't gold, it isn't worth it
MATTHEW ROZSA
According to Donald Trump Jr., winning the presidency would actually be a “step down” for his father.
In an interview with Fox News shortly after the debate, Trump Jr. tried to spin his father’s unpolished performance by arguing that his father wasn’t a “career politician” and that “if he had been doing this for his whole life, he’d be the greatest politician in the history of the world.” This wasn’t the worst spin that Trump Jr. could have chosen after a debate that most viewers felt he had lost, but then he took things one step too far.
“Unlike Hillary Clinton, who’s gotten very rich being a politician, peddling American influence, he hasn’t — this is only a step down,” Trump went on to say.
Trump’s father, who may or may not actually be a billionaire, supports himself and his lavish lifestyle. Trump owns a $100 million penthouse suite in Manhattan, an opulent mansion that has been compared to that once owned by Saddam Hussein, and extravagances ranging from a personal helicopter and private jet to a personal yacht and, of course, Trump Tower.
