Btw, one more note. Wolff also shares that Jared calls his father "daddy" in business meetings. Endearing but it also makes me uncomfortable about him all the more. His father, Charles Kushner, is also supposed have a personality similar to Fred Trump's.

This book must be making the subjects furious.

I find it messed-up. Creepy, actually. Ewww.

Still have it somewhere. Some of the best journalism around.

I thought Jared and Donald's relationship was more respectful. If the book details are true, then Trump can be a real louse towards his son in law. Not that I give a fu-fu about Kushner. But it's tough to read about how Kushner tried to bring about rapprochement between Mexico and the U.S. shortly after the inauguration but Trump pretty much burned that attempt to the ground with a tweet.

So far, the book is kinder to Ivanka. So far he treats her story gentler than anyone else's.

always " Mom," not "Mommy" or "Mama."

I think I gradually starting going with Mom and Dad in my teens. Oddly, after I had kids I had them call my father by his first name and starting doing the same thing. It felt right by then.

I allow it as not creepy at all. It may be sexist, but from a middle aged man, it is kind of creepy.

He was proud of his close family and made no secret of how they communicated with each other. I thought it was nice.

But in a business meeting with associates present? I guess that's where I draw the line and would want to be viewed as an adult in the room even if I was a bosses son.

Even though I stopped with the Daddy and Mommy in my teens, I still have adult friends who do it and it's sweet, but a SIL in business environment is, IMO, strange and flaunting the nepotism.
