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 the family business. Tiffany recently got married. Barron is currently studying to become a strategist at NYU.
Out of all of Donald Trump’s children, Donald Jr. has remained the closest to his father and has stuck by his side more than anyone else.
At 46 years old, Donald Trump has gained both political influence 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 contract. Forbes has estimated that Trump’s net worth is approximately $50 million, mostly accumulated after his father’s political career ended in January 6, 2021.
His colleagues believe he has no intention of becoming a part of the administration. However, he is aware of the challenges faced by his siblings and some first-term administration officials when they tried to control access to his father, which proved to be risky from a political standpoint.
Recently, while the president-elect is selecting members for his administration, his son has been acting as a sort of loyalty detector. While they are evaluating potential candidates at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, the president-elect is mainly interested in appearances and communication skills, according to sources. On the other hand, his son is more concerned with determining if the candidates are sincere in their beliefs and if they pose a risk to the principles of MAGA.
