#3 Ivanka Trump Has Had A Crazy Career Already

Ivanka Trump has had quite the varied career, including modeling and being a New York Times Best Seller. She has even established her own Ivanka Trump Brand. The brand presents a different, less contentious image than her father, and includes a jewelry line, fashion label, and even a lifestyle collection. And all of this accomplished by 34 years old and before becoming a successful businesswoman in her own right.

#4 From Racy Magazine Covers To Orthodox Judaism

Aside from appearing on the cover of 'Seventeen' magazine in 1997, with a little push from Daddy, she is also a convert to Judaism. In 2009 when she married Jared Kushner, an Orthodox Jew, she converted and said at the time that it gave her better and stronger values. She took on the Hebrew name of Yael. That makes her Yael Trump.

#5 Two Big Game Enthusiasts

Eric and Donald Jr. are both avid gun collectors who enjoy the thrill of the hunt. But only in controlled environments. Nothing like killing beautiful and rare exotic animals in a safe, controlled safari-for-super-villains environment while you're on vacation. When he's not hunting near-extinct animals for sport, Eric Trump enjoys life's finer pleasures. So much so that he built himself a winery in the stunning Virginia countryside.

#6 A Father-Son Relationship

Interviews with Donald Trump's oldest sons expose a childhood where Dad worked so much, and was out of the home on such a regular basis, that Donald Jr. (the oldest) took on the roles of brother AND father to Eric. That explains why the pair are incredibly close as adults and sometimes inseparable.

#7 Eric And His Wife Donate Money To Worthy Causes, Including The NRA

Eric Trump is married to a CBS producer of Inside Edition, Lara Yunaska. He's also been very involved with his father's career, appearing as a judge on his father's show, The Apprentice and helping him with his presidential campaign. He was recognized by Forbes on their Top 30 Under 30 in real estate list, as well as being listed as one of the 20 Most Important Young Philanthropists by the New York Observer, having donated over $28 million to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

#8 Tiffany Was Considered The 'Outsider'

Trump's youngest daughter Tiffany, daughter of Marla Maples, has an incredibly active social media presence, especially on Instagram. She also has dreams of cracking the music business, and her recent pop single, "Like A Bird" is flying high. She is close with her father now but was raised by her mother, because Donald didn't want the responsibility of another child at the time. The older children considered her the outsider until just a few years ago when they all reunited.

#9 Tiffany Wants To Become A Movie Star

Tiffany has recently landed an internship at Vogue. With a little help from her older sister, who as we mentioned is no slouch in the fashion industry, she landed the coveted internship and has even began doing runway work. She's got the look and access to some of the most powerful people in entertainment thanks to her famous Dad. What's interesting is that she might actually make it because she is gorgeous which means that Maples' gene pool must be strong if it overcame the genetic "dead stare" of the other Trump children.

#10 The Huge Range In Kids Ages Accounts For Why The Youngest Is Spoiled

10-year-old Barron Trump has his own floor of the Trump Penthouse. His own floor!

However, the youngest Trump has hands-on parents Donald and Melania refuse to hire a nanny to look after him. The other children all were cared for by nannies until they reached the age of sixteen. And their parents were rarely home with them since the Donald was trying to make his billions. But times change, and considering the fact that his youngest child Barron, is almost THIRTY YEARS YOUNGER than his oldest sibling, Donald Jr., it explains why Eric once said that Baron was "spoiled rotten".

#11 The Kids Have Supported All Kinds Of Politicians - Even Hillary Clinton

Although they probably don't want to talk about it on the campaign trail, over the years, the Trump kids have made sizable campaign contributions to Hilary Clinton, and Ivanka even threw a party fundraiser for Democratic star Corey Booker. Donald Jr. once supported Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo in his bid for office in NY State.

#12 Ivanka Is Best Buds With Chelsea Clinton

Again, not the kind of information you pull out when you're running as a Republican presidential candidate, but over the years, Ivanka Trump has built a strong friendship with former First Daughter Chelsea Clinton. If Donald and Hilary square off in November, it is going to be awkward.

#13 Considering The Size Of Their Trust Funds They Work Really Hard

Whether it's Eric's winery or Ivanka's many business ventures or Donald Jr.'s position within the family company that bears his name, there is no denying that the Trump children have a strong work ethic. Whatever you think about their father, this kind of attitude must have come from somewhere most likely the drive and deal-making prowess of their candidate-father.
