Donald Trump: An All-American Tale


TRUMP FACT #1:  TRUMP’S FATHER BUILT HIS FIRST HOUSE AT 15

Our president’s father, Frederick Christ Trump, Sr., was a very hard-working man who, by the age of 15 (believe it or not) built his very first house.  He was interested in building, but would be forced into a very early entrance into the workforce after his dad, Frederick Trump, died when young Fred was only 12 years old.

Because he was so good with his hands, but was still not of legal age to work, his mother created the E. Trump & Sons corporation in 1927 and Fred began building in earnest soon afterward.  Fred built and managed single-family houses in Queens, barracks and garden apartments for U.S. Navy personnel near major shipyards along the East Coast, and more than 27,000 apartments in New York City!

 

During the 1980s, Fred Trump became friends with future-Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, who was the Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations in Manhattan.  This is the reason why the president and the prime minister are so chummy today.
