So we saw each of them make a pitch for DearOldDad.
The undercurrent of each was how great Dad is and, because of him, I am where I am.
Think about that. Eric comes off as the duller knife in the family. Don Jr comes off as an exact copy of Dad. Slick and oily. Ivanka, on the other hand, *almost* pulled it off with her speech. She *almost* broke away from the mold. But the content of her speech gave it away.
Each of these kids are just like Dad. And as high profile parts of the campaign, they ought to be fair game.
They are not simply the candidate's family. DonJr was the campaign emissary to potential veeps. Ivanka is clearly a close and trusted adviser.
Each of them are on board with Dad's world view. Each of them engage in actively selling it.
The most dangerous one is Ivanka, after that speech. A pretty blonde with a soft voice and good diction. Perfect for MediaFawning from everywhere.
What role will these unelected, unvetted children play in Dad's administration?
