My Take
Eric Trump fascinates me less as a personality than as a case study in inheriting a brand you did not build. Of all the Trump children, he strikes me as the operations man, the one quietly running golf courses and wineries while his father dominates headlines. Georgetown-educated and groomed for the family business, he chose the back office of an empire that has no back office, because everything Trump is front-page news. I do not envy that position. Whatever you make of the family politics, I am genuinely curious how a second son carves out an identity when his surname enters the room before he does.
