Why Candidates’ Kids Highlight Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton CNN Docs

Documentaries cover everything from Chelsea Clinton bringing boys to the White House to Ivanka Trump interrupting business meetings

CNN will air two back-to-back documentaries on Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump on Monday night, both of which prominently feature the candidates’ adult children to offer sides of their political parents the public might not be aware of.

The Essential Hillary Clinton, her daughter Chelsea reveals that she would “bring boys to the White house” and that she would talk to her mom — but not dad/POTUS Bill Clinton — before they arrived.

“Her dad would sort of try to intimidate them but her mom already knew the scoop because she talked to her mom about boys, which is such an interesting insight into their relationship,” CNN justice correspondent Pamela Brown told TheWrap.

Borger spoke with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s three eldest children, Donald Trump, Jr., Ivanka Trump and Eric Trump, while Brown sat down with Chelsea Clinton.

Roughly 60 family members, childhood and lifelong friends, former colleagues and analysts were interviewed for the pair of documentaries, but both hosts believe it was the children who stood out.

First of all, they’re amazing adult children.

The boys tell stories about going out on construction sites with him, and that the office was kind of their place to be with him.

Chelsea explained that her mother can be embarrassing, pointing out the time that the Democratic nominee obsessed over the shelf paper inside her college dorm room.
