Ivanka and Jared have moved away from the White House to start a new life in Miami. 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 Donald Trump’s children, Donald Jr. has been the one who has stayed closest by his father’s side.
At 46 years old, Trump has gained influence and wealth by promoting the Make America Great Again movement that was originally started by his father. He owns a variety of businesses catering to conservative audiences, such as a publishing company and a lucrative podcasting deal. According to Forbes, Trump’s estimated net worth is approximately $50 million, with much of his wealth accumulated following his father’s political career after January 6, 2021.
Because of this, his colleagues mention that he does not intend to become part of the administration. However, he is aware of the challenges faced by his siblings and some officials in their first term when attempting to control access to his father, which can be a risky political move.
Lately, as the president-elect selects members for his administration, his son has been acting as a detector of loyalty. While they assess potential candidates at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, the president-elect is interested in their appearance and ability to communicate effectively, according to sources. On the other hand, his son is more concerned with verifying the sincerity of their statements and determining if they pose a risk to the MAGA movement.
