A childhood photo of a blond toddler recently went viral — not because of what it shows, but because of who it is: Donald J. Trump. The image sparked a wave of reactions across social media. Some viewed it with nostalgia, while others expressed outrage.
Critics labeled him a “monster,” pointing to his controversial presidency and political legacy. Supporters, however, defended him, citing his accomplishments and leadership.
Trump’s early years were shaped by a strict, dominant father who emphasized strength and control. At age 13, he was sent to military school, where he learned to embrace discipline, aggression, and competition.
