The testimony yesterday and today is prompted to appeal to those who enjoy that.

(3,380 posts)That details how angry he was when Ivanka was going to marry "a Jew", and he tried to get Chris Christie (who had prosecuted Kushner's father) to give him dirt on Jared to keep her from going through with the wedding.
But like everything else, this sort of tawdry nastiness will be ignored by Trump's people.

(3,380 posts)Scroll down -- here's the relevant passage:
This sort of deep-seated impulse to demolish boundaries long predates even Trumps first run for the presidency. While reporting this article, I heard a story Chris Christie has told people about Trumps inherent lawlessness. In the summer of 2009, Trump told people how furious he was that his daughter Ivanka got engaged to Jared Kushner and agreed to convert to Judaism. Youre not going to believe this, my daughter is going to be a
Jew, Trump said, according to a person who heard the remarks. According to a source, Trump told Christie, who was the former US attorney in New Jersey, to help him stop the marriage.
Trump invited Christie to dinner at 21 Club in Manhattan and asked for FBI dirt on Kushners father, Charles. (Five years earlier, Christie had negotiated a guilty plea from Charles, a billionaire real estate developer, for 16 counts of assisting in the filing of false tax returns, one count of retaliating against a cooperating witness, and one count of making false statements to the Federal Election Commission.) Trump told Christie he wanted to show the dirt to Ivanka to convince her to break up with Kushner. She cant marry this kid! Hes a twerp! Trump said. Christie told Trump that sharing confidential grand jury evidence is a crime and didnt do it. (The Trump campaign did not reply to a request for comment. Christie declined to comment.)

(407 posts)According to Mary Trump, honeybunch is a term of endearment used by Trump family.
A term Donald Trump used to describe Stormy Daniels.
