As a father concerned about the impact of the daily dose of dreadful news that my children must contend with, I am in full sympathy with Donald Trump Jr. as he frets about his children seeing a disturbing picture of their Grandpa made by a comedian. As he put it:

Donald Trump Jr.
And I’m counting down having to explain it to my 8 and 10 year olds who I’m sure will see/hear about it at school.

Seeing this tweet, I hastened to commune with Mr. Trump’s concern about his children’s feelings, and the upsetting things they must see and hear constantly with their family in the public eye so prominently. Here are my replies:

Well, what did you tell them about that picture of Daddy killing a nice friendly elephant then cutting off its tail?

Well, what did you tell the kids about Grandpa saying he likes to grab women’s genitals and put his tongue down their throats?

Well, what did you tell them when Grandpa said if Aunt Ivanka wasn’t his daughter, he’d be dating her? That must’ve been kinda weird!

What did you tell them when Grandpa was sword-dancing with Islamic extremists and taking money from them for his businesses?

Well Junior, what did you tell them about Grandpa saying avoiding the clap was “my Vietnam?” Did you say, “Be like Grandpa, kids!”

What did you tell them when Grandpa said of a married woman that he “moved on her like a bitch” but couldn’t nail her? Were they proud?

You should have LOTS of practice explaining away horrible things associated with your family by now, L’il Donnie!
