ICYMI: Hard-Partying Donald Trump Jr. Was Dubbed 'Diaper Don' in College,

I saw this tweet of several hours ago and thought it was a new book as I had missed this last June.

Anyway--for those who missed it.

Donald Trump Jr. has been known by more than a few titles over the years: executive vice president of development for The Trump Organization, father, boardroom advisor on The Apprentice and, now, First Son. But according to Vanity Fair senior reporter Emily Jane Fox’s new book, Born Trump, the president’s eldest son was once known by a lesser-known moniker, bestowed on him during his college years: “Diaper Don.”

While an undergraduate at the University of Pennsylvania, Trump Jr. reportedly earned a reputation around campus for his rowdy, inebriated habits — notably, passing out in his classmates’ rooms, and wetting their beds.


“Diaper Don would wake up in some stranger’s dorm room or off-campus apartment or bedroom in his frat house, covered in piss, walk back to his own room, and get blitzed that evening or the next anew,” Fox writes.

The young Trump’s rambunctious reputation only intensified on a spring break trip to Jamaica amid March Madness frenzy, Fox writes. Drunk and bitter over a basketball loss to Florida State, Trump Jr. stood up on a table and chanted to Florida students, “That’s all right! That’s okay! You’re gonna work for us someday.”...........................................

"Rowbottom is a tradition of civil disorder that was practiced by the students of the University of Pennsylvania throughout most of the 20th century. The first "Rowbottom" occurred in 1910; the exact details of how the tradition started, and how it got the name Rowbottom, vary."

"Most accounts of how the Rowbottom tradition started involve people calling for the attention of a University of Pennsylvania student named Joseph Tintsman Rowbottom late at night outside his dorm. The calls disturbed his fellow students, causing them to throw miscellaneous objects out their dorm windows."
