Ivanka and Jared decided to move to Miami instead of staying in the White House. Eric is now in charge of the family business. Tiffany has recently gotten married. Barron is studying to become a strategist at NYU.
Out of all of Trump’s children, Donald Jr. has remained the closest to his father, the president-elect.
At 46 years old, Mr. Trump has gained influence in politics and wealth by promoting the Make America Great Again movement that his father began. He owns various businesses geared towards conservative audiences, such as a publishing company and a lucrative podcasting contract. Forbes recently calculated Mr. Trump’s net worth to be approximately $50 million, mostly accumulated following his father’s political career after January 6, 2021.
His colleagues believe that he has no intention of becoming 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, knowing that it can be a risky move politically.
Lately, as the incoming president puts together his team, his son has been playing the role of a loyalty detector. While they assess potential candidates at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, the president-elect prioritizes appearance and communication skills, according to sources. On the other hand, his son is more concerned with the sincerity of their intentions and whether they pose a risk to the values of the MAGA movement.
