Coming to you from

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 studying to become a strategist at NYU.

Out of all of Trump’s children, Donald Jr. has been the one who has remained 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 was initiated by his father. He owns several businesses that cater to conservative audiences, including a publishing company and a lucrative podcasting contract. Forbes estimated his net worth to be approximately $50 million, mostly accumulated after his father’s political career following 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 other new administration officials who tried to control access to his father, which proved to be politically risky.

Lately, as the incoming president puts together his team, his son has been acting as a detector of loyalty. While assessing 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 interested in determining the sincerity of their statements and whether they pose a threat to the MAGA agenda.
