Barron is taller than Dad and both of his older brothers. He may not appreciate that yet (sometimes kids who shoot up tall very fast the way he did feel awkward until they get used to it), but someday I think he will be happy to tower over all of them.

After being refused a one week delay to attend the funeral, then calling the judge all kinds of nasty names in response, Trump figured he'd better show up, or else.

There is practically no independent media outlet in the US today.
Most are owned by a few venture captal firms, which gut the assets like a fish, or some Reich-wing fanboy like the Sinclair stations' owner, or the Murdochs.

The Feds needed to enforce antitrust laws, and have failed miserably. Started with Reagan. I miss newspapers.

My childhood hometown paper from Niagara Falls arrives by mail in two batches a week. My local, Augusta, Maine, paper, The Kennebec Journal, Still arrives 6 days a week on my doorstep. I have the best paper carrier ever.

I don’t know how long either of these will last, but I’m going to get them as long as they do!

There's always a chance that he could turn out to be like Mary. Hopefully!!

He turns 18 in March, so it will be interesting to see how he turns out. I don't know what his maternal grandparents were/are like but they stayed pretty much in the background. I can only hope and pray that they at least were a good influence.

Barron is also the only one of the five kids who spent his formative years in the White House. I feel really sorry for him.

You're trying to tell me there was absolutely no possible way they couldn't have held the funeral on a Sunday.

Okay, I'll admit it: the cost to rent the Chinook Helicopter he needed to slingload Grandma's casket after Trump packed it with documents the government hasn't taken back yet is a little higher on the weekends...but isn't he supposedly rich?

The base really needs to see that photo. That is the appearance and affect of a seriously unwell man. You can tell that he’s completely self-absorbed. The only grief he’s experiencing is for himself. The contrast with his son is remarkable; young, handsome, vibrant, caring, ready to start his life versus old, haggard, defeated, oblivious, probably destined to die broke and unloved. I wish Baron the best. The old guy - not so much.
