Trump ancestral home??

tayto lover

There doesn't seem to be much effort into tracing Donald Trump's ancestral home in Ireland. Surely he has one? Muhammad Ali, Ronald Regan, Bill Clinton, the Kennedys and even Joe Bidon had Irish ancestors or so we're led to believe. Nobody in a tizzy to try and trace Trump's.
I'm wondering if he's not good enough for us??

Mam of 4

Maybe no one wants to claim to be related to him??

D.T.'s family tree can be traced back as far as 1727 and the family surname was Trump then.

Johann Paul Trump (1727-1792)

Given Scotti was the general Roman name for the Irish* and gave it's name to the land we know today, he may have a better claim to Irish ancestry than many who tried to milk it in the past.




*It covered Irish and "little Ireland", IE Scotland. Sometimes Irish was later narrowed down to how we might view it with the addition of "Erugena"(SP?), "born of Ireland" to Scottus. So Donald Scottus would be a general Gael, likely Irish, Donald Scottus Erugena would defo be a local.

All those Scottish island families are mixed with blood of Viking invaders. Actually makes sense he'd be related to those immigrant invaders given his hard on and hatred for the present immigrants spilling into the current country he wants to run. He's a self hating immigrant

That could be regarded in another way. That he has the hard on and hatred for invaders because his ma's clan were fecked over by same back in the day. You can put a spin on anything these days.

True! They could have gifted the family that ridiculous blonde comb-back hairdo straight from the dark fjords of Scandinavia

When a politician comes to national public attention in the USA their roots are traced by genealogists over there, not in Ireland. It might get reported here if they find an Irish link, such as with Obama or Sarah Palin, but it's American genealogists who do the research and publicise it.

If he wants to come, why not? He seems to be the acceptable person to hate at the minute among the usual suspects (hypocritical libtards). To say he's doing the Irish-visit, it shows he must be a serious contender for the White House.

I'd vote for him over Hilary any and every day of the week...

I'd love to know how they found the Muhammad Ali link?

Is he not originally from Doonbeg in Clare?

I'm pretty certain that Trump's ancestral home is actually Mexico.

Ah I dunno, wasn't the whole Obama connection pretty much the work of the vicar in Moneygall taking an interest in it?
