Trump’s Brother and ‘Best Friend’ Died Today…Trump Spent the Day Golfing with a Retired Football Player

Robert Trump, the younger brother of Donald Trump, has died at 72 years old.

The president announced the death of his brother late Saturday.

“It is with heavy heart I share that my wonderful brother, Robert, peacefully passed away tonight,” he said in a statement. “He was not just my brother, he was my best friend. He will be greatly missed, but we will meet again. His memory will live on in my heart forever. Robert, I love you. Rest in peace.”

Donald Trump reflected on the relationship he had with his brother, who is only two years younger, at a briefing on Friday.

“I have a wonderful brother, we’ve had a great relationship for a long time, from day one,” he said. “It’s a long time ago. And he’s in the hospital right now. And hopefully he’ll be all right, but he is pretty — he’s having a hard time.”

So what did Trump do today? Was he by his brother’s bedside? Was he consoling his siblings and family members?
