    Maybe they’re onto something. What if, instead of voting for people based on their ideals and record, we just passed leadership down through bloodline? Has anyone tried that before?

      Based on primogeniture, wouldn’t that mean Don Jr is taking over? Then Eric? Clearly, the girls would be skipped…

      So does this mean Barron is going to kill his brothers to ascend the throne?

    “He’s a guy you can have drinks with”… Uh no? He’s 18. You cannot have drinks with him unless your a piece of tra… Well that guy can, but that’s more like peer pressuring someone you really out age

      I was very confused by your comment until I googled the drinking age in the US, and found it’s 21. I guess I assumed it was 18 like most countries

        You are responsible enough for your own decisions at 18 that you can join the military and die for your country, but you can’t buy a drink for another 3 years.
