    As I understand it, her brother and his wife had a child with severe medical problems that would cost lots and lots of money over its lifetime. Mary's father died before his father ( Trump Sr) did. Senior had planned to leave equal shares to his own kids (Donald and his siblings). Had Senior died first, Senior figured that Mary's father would have taken care of the sick grandchild in his will. So when Mary's father died first, Senior decided to change his will to set up a foundation for the purpose of paying all medical bills for everyone in that family group. Donald wouldn't have had anything at all to do with that.

      Go to Bolton’s book. They guy is brilliant. A bit hawkish I admit but razor sharp.

      A worthy read? Beyond just the complaints about his boss that have been discussed in the media?

              So much of twitter is just a pipe for adults to not only act like children but make visible to so many people and encourage them to behave the same way.

              Why are we so uncivil? Because our technology hardwired it into our daily living. It is our augmented reality.

                Some of us have been convinced a little too strongly that ridicule is man's greatest weapon. Maybe not every sick burn posted by some average asshole on twitter needs to be shared by and with the giggling or offended masses.

                  That's his actual niece. He is in fact somebody's crazy uncle.

                    I was responding to Loki's more general point about Twitter.

                        Or, he's a sane uncle with a crazy-ass niece.
