USATue Nov 26 2024
Donald Trump Jr. , son of the President-elect, has made a name for himself in politics, becoming a significant player in his father’s orbit. He has been vocal about his support for certain key figures to join the administration, notably Elon Musk and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. They’ve even sat together on Trump’s private plane, discussing over McDonald's burgers. Trump Jr. has been advocating for his friends to fill top White House roles, with some already set to join like Kennedy heading for a health position.
Trump Jr. serves as an honorary chair of the transition team, helping decide who fills key jobs. He’s close with Republican strategists like Sergio Gor, with whom he runs a publishing company. Unlike his sister Ivanka, who joined the administration, Trump Jr. plans to stay vocal from the outside.
Known for his aggressive stance, Trump Jr. often stirs up conflicts and trolls opponents online. He’s fluent in the conservative digital world, using social media effectively to connect with young supporters. His approach is different, making him stand out in Republican politics.
Though he’s not eyeing any political office himself, he supports the younger generation, helping up-and-coming Republicans. Beyond politics, Trump Jr. also serves in the Trump family business and has ventured into crypto and venture capital. He’s always been influential, from appearances on 'The Apprentice' to boosting his father’s campaign.
His leadership style has appealed to young men, but his choices for his father’s team may face challenges during Senate confirmation hearings. Despite this, Trump Jr. maintains that these picks will bring the disruption that Americans want.
