Those Trump kids sure have a type. Five years after Ivanka Trump married New York Observer publisher Jared Kushner (a card-carrying MOT for whom she converted), younger brother Eric Trump followed in her footsteps, marrying Inside Edition’s Lara Yunaska on Saturday at dad’s Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach.

Kushner himself performed the ceremony, which the New York Post reports took place under a “crystal-embellished” chuppah. Because while the wedding may have been Jewish, it was still Trump.

Kushner had some advice for Yunaska, telling her during the ceremony, “You are not just gaining a family you are getting 6 million Twitter followers.”

Mazel tov to the happy couple. (“You have a new follower on Twitter!”)
