Crushed underneath him, or is that the arm and hand of someone under the table to keep him in place? Looks like Trump has his other arm.

Interesting reading.

All that gold, and it all looks sooooooooooooo tacky. Classic example of "money can't buy class."

Fool's gold comes to mind.

I know people here hate that term, but they really are completely classless.

It's probably all a facade to hide his real pain or fear of not being good enough for mom and dad, so he puts on the gold leaf act to look like he's worth their love.

Probably the last time he and his son talked.....he shook his shoulders during the convention and the child let both
shoulders "to tell him to buck off".

The Sad Prince.

I usually don't root for kids to turn against their parents, but I seriously hope Barron rejects his putrid father when he grows up. Everyone else seems to suck up to him, even the daughter he treated like a bastard.

contrast this to Senator Kaine singing in Saint Elizabeth Church, or pictures of him in Honduras. Or any pics of Senator Clinton and her family.

He's probably never put on a pair of jeans or picked up a frog. It must be like going from toddler to middle-aged by age 8.

Or does he just sit in his gold-plated room playing with his gold-plated X-Box all by himself?

It has been said that his home looks like Versailles as redecorated by Saddam Hussein's pimp. More proof that money can't buy class.

where the nanny will allow him to change into his school uniform and eat some Cocoa Puffs before the limo driver rings to take him off to his school.

The kid looks like a prop and the attempt at family intimacy at a banquet table that seats 12-16 looks just plain weird.
