Born Trump : inside America's first family / by Fox, Emily Jane,author.;
Who is Donald J. Trump? To truly understand America's 45th president, one must know his children, whose own stories provide the key to unlocking what makes him tick. Emily Jane Fox's book is a dishy, deeply reported, and richly detailed look at Trump's five children (and equally powerful son-in-law, Jared Kushner), exploring their lives, their roles in the campaign and administration, and their dramatic and often fraught relationships with their father and with one another. Reexamining the tabloid-soaked events that shaped their lives in startling new detail, the book is full of surprising insights, previously untold stories, and delicious tidbits about their childhoods (ridiculously privileged and painful, in equal measure) and the extraordinary power they now wield. As a version of a new kind of American royalty they wish to be, they are ensconced not in palaces but in Trump Tower and the White House.
