David ......

and now trump has criticized him ............

it is unheard of to criticize a previous president of your own party.


Trump has also given an interview in which he says Obama is to blame for the leaks from the White House AND for as well asthe protesters against Trump

That's also unheard of.

Criticize policies, yes

Don't criticize the person.

Difficult to separate the policy frm the person.
A new President trashing a previous one,
He's only got "job" for 4 years or less.

The Queen of England has her job for life.

Now he's back saying that Obama has a fake birth certificate but I say WHO CARES. He is no longer president so it really doesn't matter if he was born in America or not. Hey maybe Trump wasn't born in America.

The apparent fact that Friedrich Trump made masses of money by running the hotel and brothel in the Yukon is denied by his offspring ;-)

I couldn't open the link, but it doesn't matter; it was probably an 'alternative fact' ;-)

I would have you know that Maclean's is a we ll-respected Canadian news magazine ..... they usually check their facts pretty well

SylviaInCanada

SylviaInCanada Report 2 Mar 2017 22:08

I can't open it either :-(

I found it by googling Donald Trump's grandfather

Interesting :-D

Why would DT claim his grandfather was from Sweden?

My grandmother came from Ireland, but I think that she was Welsh! :-\

My grandmother was Cornish, but insisted her mother was from 'Spanish stock' - with the surname Best?????

I notice Trump's grandfather also has an 'interesting' hair style :-D

Many enterprising people ran brothels or were bootleggers before entering politics
the wealth bought them or their sons an education and provided a "reputable" background.

I wish my parents/grandparents had been more enterprising :-D
