6. What - the man who is far fitter than Trump ever was, thanks to his enthusiasm for basketball?

No doubt the reason Trump brought him up was to disparage him in some way, even when the only reason for bringing him up in a talk to kids about physical fitness would have been to use him as a role model.

Do you think Trump ever talked to his own kids like a dad, rather than as someone with perpetual grievances against others that he wanted them to copy?
