Updating from the capital
Ivanka and Jared decided to move to Miami instead of staying in the White House. Eric is now in charge of the family business. Tiffany recently got married. Barron is studying at NYU and showing potential as a strategist.
Out of all of Donald Trump’s children, Donald Jr. has been the one who has stayed by his father’s side the most. He is the oldest son of the president-elect.
Donald Trump, who is 46 years old, has gained both political influence and wealth by promoting the Make America Great Again movement that was originally started by his father. He owns various businesses that cater to conservative audiences, including a publishing company and a lucrative podcasting deal. Forbes has estimated his net worth to be approximately $50 million, with much of his wealth accumulating after his father’s political career following January 6, 2021.
Because of this, his colleagues claim that he has no intention of becoming part of the administration. However, he is aware of the challenges faced by his siblings and some new administration officials who tried to control access to his father, and knows that it can be a risky political move.
Lately, as the incoming president puts together his team, his son has been acting as a sort of loyalty tester. While they assess potential candidates at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, the president-elect is interested in appearance and communication skills, according to sources. On the other hand, his son is more concerned with determining if the candidates are genuine in their intentions and if they pose a risk to the current administration’s beliefs.
