Writing from the capital

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 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. He is the oldest son of the president-elect.

At the age of 46, Donald Trump has gained influence in politics and amassed wealth by promoting the Make America Great Again movement that was initiated by his father. He owns various businesses that cater to conservative audiences, such as a publishing company and a lucrative podcasting deal. According to Forbes, Trump’s net worth is estimated to be approximately $50 million, mostly accumulated following his father’s political career after January 6, 2021.

Because of this, his colleagues claim that he has no intention of becoming a part of the administration. However, he is aware of the challenges faced by his siblings and some officials in the administration who tried to control access to their father, which proved to be a risky political move.

Recently, as the incoming president works on forming his administration, his son has been acting as a gauge of loyalty. While the president-elect is concerned with appearances and messaging when reviewing potential candidates at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, his son is more focused on determining the sincerity of their intentions and assessing whether they pose a threat to the MAGA movement.
