And his kids have followed suit. They’re running a family business that was built on granddad’s real estate fortune (which started with selling middle class housing all while keeping out the wrong sort of folks until the feds told him to quit it).

Actually, granddad’s fortune was built on great-granddad’s fortune, made while selling horse meat to miners during the gold rush (along with booze and gambling halls).

And his connections allowed his wife and Fred, Jr. to build the eventual Trump fiefdom that Donald and his kids enjoy today.
