Updating from the capital
Ivanka and Jared decided to move away from the White House and start a new life in Miami. Eric is currently 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 stayed closest to his father and supported him the most.
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 catering to conservative audiences, including a publishing company and a lucrative podcasting agreement. Forbes approximated Mr. Trump’s net worth to be approximately $50 million, which grew significantly following his father’s political career after January 6, 2021.
His colleagues mention that he has no intention of becoming part of the administration. However, he is aware of the challenges that his siblings and some new administration officials faced when trying to control access to his father, which proved to be a risky political move.
Over the past few weeks, as the incoming president organizes his team, his son has been acting as a sort of loyalty evaluator. While they assess potential candidates at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, the president-elect is interested in appearance and communication skills, according to sources. His son, on the other hand, is more concerned with determining if their intentions align with their words and if they pose a risk to the MAGA movement.
