I watched Hillary on Jimmy Kimmel she always brings up her Granddaughter Charlotte in interviews

I have never heard Cheeto talk about his gtprandchikdren. Bill Clinton brought a balloon home from the convention for his Charlotte so it's not a make thing.

Why doesn't Cheeto ever talk about his grandchildren to humanize himself?

Has anybody even seen his wife since the convention? His kids who are part of his campaign are out and about - Uday and Qusay because they're assholes like their dad, and Ivanka because she's hot and Dad wants to do her - but he never mentions Melania any more, or the other daughter or the younger son or the grandkids. Why? Because they can't do anything for him. He can't relate to the concept of being more approachable on account of being a grandfather (grandfathers are old, after all - look at what Eric tweeted about Hillary), and anyhow, Trump assumes everybody adores him already so why so should he pretend to care about some kids he probably never sees?

It was when Bill Clinton went on Atty. General Lynch's plane for a chat.

It's creepy, but the grandchildren wear toupee's and have orange skin. Somethings going on and we go to find out what the hell it is. People are talking about it, and it's being reported.

I don't think he spends much time with any of them unless they are closely involved in his business interests.
