about naming his first son "Junior" because he feared the reflection if he turned out to be a loser and a disgrace to the name. Well, donnie has done his best in the disgrace department, but Junior has made chump's prediction come true. Losers - BOTH of them.

was more concerned about his own image rather than the needs of any son he might spawn. Big surprise there, right?

ETA: I was Married to a Jr. and we had two sons. It took every ounce of strength in my body to revolt against naming one of the boys "the 111" - no way, no how. In contrast, in a friend's family, they have a string going to the length of "the V".

Thu Mar 10, 2022, 09:20 PM

I sometimes say out loud, "Huh. Not an original idea in four (or whatever) generations."

In the mid 1960s I worked for the Credit Bureau, in Tucson, AZ. Over and over again I saw the problem with naming a son "junior". Typically, the dad did not bother to use "senior", and often the son was equally casual about using "junior." If the son still lived at home, they had the same address. So now, junior is 18 or so, working at his first job, and trying to establish credit. With the exact same name and address, various clerks who dealt with the paperwork were often a bit careless about such things as the precise date of birth. The result was, that junior and senior's credit information became hopelessly confused. This was an especial problem when one of them was careless about such things as paying bills on time. While it was a bit more likely for that to be a problem with junior, sometimes it was senior who was the deadbeat. No matter. Either way, there was almost no chance of separating their credit information. If they'd had different names in the first place, this wouldn't have happened.

Had I married a man who thought our first son should be a junior, he'd have quickly learned how totally opposed I was to that. Fortunately, the man I did marry had zero interest in that.

When we had a son, I wanted him to have his own name. So did his dad. For the same reason, I wanted our daughter to have her own name and not be a junior me. Her dad was in complete agreement there, too.

They deserve their own identity, their own names, their own nickname developed from their names - not a "junior" anybody.

Given Trump's history of failed businesses, debt, and general appearance of sounding like an idiot, he does not get the benefit of any doubt.

Trump is a moron. His offspring are all morons that have benefitted from a corrupt system that awards rich people's failures with more riches.

Jr. is not having a nervous break down. He is jacked up on Cocaine or some other stimulant and is displaying the same wannabe defiant, whiny attitude that his dad has.

These people used to be ignored as stupid and problems. Damn I would love to go back to ignoring the stupid.

He was pretty whacked before, but it's gotten worse, and he is more out of his mind than ever. He's going to start sounding like his father pretty soon.

I am pretty sure that drugs are probably the reason that Senior's lack of coherence is due to long term drug abuse as well. I've seen it in people before and it really destroys your brain.

Trump Jr. says father only praised Putin, Xi to 'play' them [View all]
Donald Trump Jr. on Wednesday said in a Rumble video that former President Trump only praised Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping to “play” them.

In the video, Trump Jr. said his father only praised the dictators because he “knew that flattering that man [Putin] would get you a lot more than calling him out and embarrassing him on a world stage.”

Most recently, Trump was seen at events calling Putin smart for his strategy leading up to the invasion of Ukraine.

“You call out a leader. You embarrass him, an ego-maniacal kind of person, whether it's Putin, whether it's Kim Jong Un [...] You call them out on a world stage and you embarrass them, what do you think is going to happen?” Trump Jr. said.
