The Kids
Donald Trump sure likes sharing throwback photos! Here is one of him and his children 20 years ago. He can be seen standing over Donald Jr., Ivanka, and Eric. Like him, they ended up inheriting a lot of the family money and working at the family business. It appears like the empire is in good hands.

‘Lost City’
Here is Donald posing with his “Television City” model. It was a proposal for a huge commercial and residential complex in the Manhattan area called Upper West Side, right along the Hudson. Trump was hoping that it would house the headquarters of TV studios such as NBC News. The model in his hand was for a 150-story building meant to be the centerpiece of the area. It was supposed to be the tallest building on the planet! Sadly, things did not go as planned. First, there was a lot of criticism about the plan as many architecture critics said that the idea had “little connection to the varied pattern of streets” of New York on top of being “woefully simplistic.” On top of that, people living there did not approve of it after Trump increased the area of his original plan. It got even more out of control after Mayor Ed Koch said he would give tax breaks to NBC for moving its studios there, although Trump would not get any. True to form, Trump started name-calling him, much to the delight of the tabloids.
