Writing from the nation

Ivanka and Jared decided to move away from the White House and start a new life in Miami. Eric is now in charge of managing the family business. Tiffany recently got married. Barron is studying to become a strategist at NYU.

Out of all of Donald Trump’s children, Donald Jr. has been the one who has remained by his father’s side the most. He is the oldest son of the president-elect.

At 46 years old, Donald Trump has gained influence in politics and amassed a personal fortune by promoting the Make America Great Again movement that was initiated by his father. He has various businesses that cater to conservative audiences, including a publishing company and a lucrative podcasting contract. According to Forbes, Trump’s estimated net worth is approximately $50 million, largely accumulated following his father’s political career after January 6, 2021.

According to his friends, he doesn’t intend to become a part of the administration. However, he is aware of the challenges faced by his siblings and other officials who tried to control access to his father, which can be risky in politics.

Recently, as the incoming president puts together his team, his son has been acting as a sort of loyalty detector. While the president-elect is focused on appearances and messaging when evaluating potential candidates, his son is more concerned with their sincerity and whether they pose a threat to the current administration’s beliefs. This dynamic plays out as they vet candidates at Mar-a-Lago in Florida.
