Writing from the capital
Ivanka and Jared decided to move away from the White House and start a new life in Miami. Eric is now in charge of the family business. Tiffany recently got married. Barron is currently studying and gaining experience in strategy at NYU.
Out of all of Donald Trump’s children, Donald Jr. has been the one who has stayed closest to his father.
Donald Trump, who is 46 years old, has gained influence in politics and wealth by promoting the Make America Great Again movement that was initiated by his father. He owns several businesses that cater to conservative audiences, such as a publishing company and a lucrative podcasting deal. According to Forbes, Trump’s net worth is estimated to be approximately $50 million, mostly accumulated after his father’s political career ended on January 6, 2021.
His colleagues have mentioned that he does not intend to become part of the administration for this reason. However, he is aware of the challenges faced by his siblings and other officials in the administration who tried to control access to his father, which turned out to be risky from a political standpoint.
Recently, as the president-elect is in the process of forming his administration, his son has been acting as a sort of loyalty evaluator. While they assess potential candidates at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, the president-elect is interested in appearances and communication skills, according to those close to them. On the other hand, his son is more concerned with determining the sincerity of the candidates and whether they pose a threat to the MAGA agenda.
