Both Presidential candidates Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton might be debating their way to the White House. But while both of the candidates are still exchanging opinions to win the approval of the crowd, experts said that these two people actually have something in common than can greatly influence their campaign and that is: the current pregnancies of their daughters.
Political expert said the pregnancy of Chelsea Clinton, who revealed last month that she is pregnant with her second baby with husband Marc Mezvinsky, can bring a huge impact on her mother's campaign.
Newton-Small, author of the just-released book 'Broad Influence: How Women are Changing the Way America Works' said to E! News, "Having her granddaughter around, talking about her daughter being pregnant and being a grandmother certainly makes her approachable, makes her relatable to a lot of women. So that can be quite helpful to her."
The expert also added that Hillary's past interviews, talking about her one-year-old granddaughter Charlotte and how she spends time with her made her looked a very average grandma. However, Newton-Small said that there could be a downside somehow for the 68-year-old Clinton, emphasizing her fun, grandma role and that is: her age!
"You think of grandmothers, you think of little old biddies," the author explained. "You don't think of presidents."
As for the 69-year-old Donald Trump, the father of Ivanka Trump, who revealed this summer that she's expecting her third child with Jared Kushner. Newton-Small observed that Ivanka's children and her pregnancy contribute plus factors for Donald's campaign. The author said, "Ironically, you think of presidents and you think they could be grandfathers."
Newton-Small also said that having Ivanka's children around makes him a grandfather, family man and a very relatable guy. At the end of the author's observation, she concluded that pregnant people are good weapons that can be used as a "political tool." Needless to say, people love children and most of the people "love the idea of having kids."
Meanwhile, the former U.S. Secretary Clinton and her rival, the real estate tycoon Trump, are both currently busy leading their respective Democratic and Republican groups.
