Ivanka and Jared decided to move to Miami instead of staying at the White House. Eric is now in charge of the family business. Tiffany got married. Barron is studying to become a strategist at NYU.
Out of all of Trump’s children, Donald Jr. has been the most loyal and supportive of his father. He is the oldest son of the president-elect.
At the age of 46, Donald Trump has gained influence in politics and wealth by promoting the Make America Great Again movement that was initially started by his father. He owns various businesses that cater to conservative audiences, including a publishing company and a lucrative podcasting contract. According to Forbes, Trump’s net worth is estimated to be approximately $50 million, mostly accumulated after his father’s political career ended on January 6, 2021.
His colleagues believe that he will not be joining the administration for this reason. However, he is aware of the challenges that his siblings and some officials faced when trying to control access to his father. Serving as a gatekeeper for his father can be risky in terms of politics.
Over the past few weeks, the president-elect has been expanding his administration, with his son playing a key role in assessing the loyalty of potential candidates. While the president-elect prioritizes appearance and communication skills during candidate reviews at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, his son is more interested in determining the sincerity of their intentions and assessing whether they pose a threat to the principles of the MAGA movement.
