Eric Trump Hints At Possible White House Run After Father's Term | US News Today | N18G | News18

US President Donald Trump's son, Eric Trump, has hinted that he or another Trump family member could seek the presidency once his father's second term ends. In a recent interview with the Financial Times, the 41-year-old Trump Organization executive said a political path would be “an easy one” for him, though he remains undecided about entering public life.“The real question is: ‘Do you want to drag other members of your family into it? Would I want my kids to live the same experience over the last decade that I’ve lived? Eric said, citing the toll of nearly a decade of public scrutiny and legal battles.advertisement“If the answer was yes, I think I could do it. And I think other members of our family could do it too.”STORIES YOU MAY LIKEWife kills husband with lover's help over illicit affair in KarnatakaAnti-Ageing Pills Under Lens in Shefali Jariwala’s Cardiac ArrestShefali Jariwala's last X post was for her dost and ex-boyfriend Sidharth ShuklaUnlike his siblings, Donald Jr and Ivanka Trump, both of whom have taken on prominent political roles. Eric has largely stayed behind the scenes, focusing on the Trump family’s business empire. Yet, his recent comments suggest that he has been quietly observing the political landscape and weighing the future.Eric also voiced frustration with the current political class, claiming he could “do the job very effectively,” and expressed disdain for many elected officials.However, he remains cautious about the personal cost: “Do you want to subject the people you love to the brutality of this system?”With rising Republican figures like Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio gaining momentum, speculation continues about what a post-Trump GOP might look like.advertisementWhen asked if 2024 would be the final election with Trump on the ballot, Eric simply replied: “Time will tell. But there’s more people than just me.”Addressing allegations that the Trump family enriched itself through politics, Eric pushed back, claiming the presidency came at a high cost. “If there’s one family that hasn’t profited off politics, it’s the Trump family,” he said, arguing the opportunity costs and legal expenses have been “astronomical.” He estimated the family has spent nearly USD 500 million defending itself against various investigations.Despite this, Donald Trump’s wealth has surged, at least on paper. His stake in Trump Media & Technology Group is reportedly worth about USD 2 billion, and he earned USD 630 million last year from ventures including crypto, real estate branding, and merchandise.Eric Trump values the Trump Organization between USD 8 billion and USD 12 billion, but says the price of political life goes beyond business: “The toll it’s taken on our family has been immense.”While Eric stopped short of announcing any political ambitions, his remarks reignited speculation that the Trump dynasty is far from finished with American politics. Whether it’s him, Donald Jr, Ivanka, or someone else, the family remains a powerful force in the GOP, and the next chapter may just be beginning. News18 Mobile App - https://onelink.to/desc-youtube
