Donald Trump's son Eric admits to a "political dynasty"

Eric Trump , the son of the US President, believes that “it would be easy” to continue his father’s presidency with another Trump in the White House – that is, one of his sons or relatives could become the political leader of the United States in the future. For Eric Trump, not only could he himself continue his father’s presidency, but other members of the family could also help create a political dynasty in the country.

In an interview with the Financial Times, Trump's son says that the "political path" that would lead to the creation of this dynasty would be "an easy path". "The real question is: would I want to drag my entire family into this?", he said, continuing: "would I want my children to live the same experience that I have lived over the last decade?"

Assuming a positive answer to this question, Eric Trump claims that he would be able to “make a path” that would lead him to the White House. “I think I could do it, and I think other members of our family could do it too,” he says.

In an interview with the Financial Times, given a few days ago at Trump Tower in New York, Eric also rejected the idea that the family is using political office to enrich themselves. “If there is one family that has not profited from politics, it is the Trump family,” says Eric, 41, who grew up at the top of this very tower. “In fact, I guarantee that we would have many more zeros to our name if my father had not decided to run in his first term – the opportunity cost, the legal costs, the [negative] impact of the presidency on our family fortune has been astronomical.”

In addition to Eric Trump, who has been a face of the family's investments in crypto assets, (his brother) Donald Trump Jr. is also very publicly involved, (his sister) Ivanka Trump was involved in the first Trump presidency and even Eric's wife, Lara Trump, was co-chair of the Republican National Committee that took place last year. Everything indicates that, if Trump (really) accepts the constitutional limitation and does not seek a new presidency, Vice President JD Dance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio will try to succeed Donald Trump, but his son Eric says he may also try.

“Who knows? Time will tell. I believe I could perform the role effectively, I have a very bad impression of half the politicians I see…”, he says.
