I know the "Arrested Development" Bluths were modeled after the Bushes, but the Trumps are

[ProfessorPlum]

a much better fit.

Don is even tweeting about "light treason" this morning.

Plus Ivanka = Lindsey
Jared = Tobias
Don Jr = GOB
Eric = Michael
Baron = Buster

which makes Melania Lucille. Hmmm.

Plus, they get busted for international treason, money laundering, building things in enemy countries, etc. and all of them are useless. And Ivanka is daddy's girl. and Jared blue himself.

1. Lmao...so true

[targetpractice]

2. I was about to post this exact thing earlier...

The plot is eerily similar to real life today.

[Merlot]

3. Oh, I think jared is GOB, he has that same blank expression

and don't forget the expensive suits.

That would make Tobias don Jr. Tobias of the get-rich-quick schemes, so that works.

Let's leave Baron out of this, and eric makes a much better buster.

Only problem is Michael, who is supposedly the "good guy" (relativly speaking). At this point michael cohen is looking like Michael Bluth.

Yes, ivankka is our Lindsey. melania as Lucille, well that works!

We just need someone to step in as the happless George Michael, that could be Tiffany. Maybe is to smart to be in the trumpft family.

12. "And to think I almost spilled coffee all over this $4,000 suit! Come on!"

4. And Rudy Giuliani is Barry Zuckercorn!

[ProfessorPlum]

8. LOL

perfect

[PatSeg]

5. At least the Bluths are funny and entertaining

[Coventina]

6. I have to disagree about Eric being Michael.

Michael was the most competent of the bunch.

Eric is the least.

[ProfessorPlum]

7. i know

originally I had Michael as Don Jr. But then I reverted to birth order.

there is no "michael" in the trump family

[oberliner]

17. Perhaps Barron will rise up to that challenge eventually

[Initech]

10. Eric would be a good Tobias.

And Tobias *IS* the least competent of the group.

[Merlot]

15. I think that honor goes to Buster/eric

[OriginalGeek]

9. And Trump-buddy Chachi

can still be Bob Loblaw

[Initech]

11. Joey No Socks would make a great J. Walter Weatherman.

[TeapotInATempest]

13. I think Barron might turn out to be Michael

I think Ivana (his first wife) is Lucille, and Melania is Kitty, lol.

[ProfessorPlum]

14. ha ha, that's great

[FakeNoose]

16. No way is Eric the "Michael" character

Michael (played by Jason Bateman) is the only half-normal one in the bunch. The Trump family doesn't have a Michael Bluth. Other than that, I agree with your scenario.
