Writing from the capital
Ivanka and Jared decided to move away from the White House to live in Miami. Eric is now in charge of the family business. Tiffany recently got married. Barron is studying to become a strategist at NYU.
Out of all of Trump’s children, Donald Jr. has been the one who has remained by his father’s side the most.
At 46 years old, Donald Trump has gained influence in politics and wealth by promoting the Make America Great Again movement that was originally started by his father. He owns several conservative-focused businesses, including a publishing company and a lucrative podcasting deal. According to Forbes, Trump’s net worth is estimated to be around $50 million, largely accumulated after his father’s political career following January 6, 2021.
Because of this, his colleagues say he does not intend to become part of the administration. However, he also recognizes the challenges faced by his siblings and some administration officials in their first term, as they discovered the difficulties of trying to control access to their father.
Lately, the president-elect’s son has been acting as a detector of loyalty as his father forms his administration. While the president-elect is primarily interested in candidates who appear presentable and can effectively communicate, his son is more concerned with whether they are genuine in their intentions and if they pose a risk to the current administration’s values. This evaluation process takes place at Mar-a-Lago in Florida.
