        Well, I was 10 when JFK was assassinated & while women smoked, they rarely did so in public. My mother smoked 3 packs a day of unfiltered Camels, but only at home.

        I grew up thinking all homes had blue haze, smoke grime on the windows, cigarette burns on the edges of furniture & food that reeked of smoke.

        JFK was killed 3 mo after I was born. In fact, I think the baby they lost died around same time. My Mom didn’t smoke, b/c she grew up in a home like u described, but all my aunts did. I thought my Mom was a nerd for not smoking. 🙄😆 Time’s change!

        I was three and a half in November 63 and both my parents smoked, as did all my aunts and uncles. I didn't mind the cloud of smoke very much. I thought it was normal and couldn't wait for the chance to do it myself. It was normal back then for adults, not uncommon for kids.pic.twitter.com/4asKrJ1ROS

        Looks more like a medieval tapestry than wallpaper from here. Those curtains show up in other interior photos from that era, though.

        Different time. Jackie lighting a cigarette. Nowadays Melania probably just chugs a few Xanex.

        I’m not surprised she smoked, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a picture of her with a cigarette before.

        Still waiting for the pictures of trump playing with his young son. Do they even speak?

        No, he's going for lack of relationship between father and son.

        But, it's literally not about the child. It's about the adult and the lack of relationship they seem to have with their child. It's about the adult.

        It’s a cheap shot about the child. Plenty of policies to bang him about.

        I disagree. A cheap shot would be something specifically about Barron/ his looks, his intelligence, his behavior, etc- a la what was spewed about Chelsea Clinton and about the Obama girls. He isn't harassing Barron- it's about trump's shortcomings.

        Chelsea did take a beating. And her parents used her as a prop. Disgusting. Never saw the Young Obama girls questioned about their relationship with their dad. It’s a cheap shot because there are plenty of policy planks to take issue with. Leave the kid alone.
