Father’s Response’: Trump considers family’s role in 2024 campaign
Former President Donald Trump’s Family and His Bid for the White House
Former President Donald Trump is mindful of involving his family in his latest bid for the White House.
Trump expressed his hesitation to feature his family in his campaign, acknowledging that his wife, Melania Trump, would become more involved as the campaign moved forward.
“At the same time, I don’t want my family to be too active because they did such a great job last time and they were really gone after by people that were very unfair,” Trump told Fox News’s Brian Kilmeade.
Eric Trump’s Response to His Father’s Concern
Trump’s son, Eric Trump, responded to his father’s concern during an appearance on One Nation with Brian Kilmeade on Saturday. Eric Trump claimed his father’s wariness was the “same response I would have for my own child.”
“Well, I think that’s a reaction from a father. I think that’s the right reaction from a father,” Eric Trump said. “I mean Brian, the second my father got into office, I received a subpoena from the House, the Senate — politically motivated every single day. They came after me ruthlessly. They came after Don, and they went after Baron. They went after Melania. They went after everybody in our family, and they did so ruthlessly as a way to get after him.”
Eric Trump added that his father “would live a much better life in Mar-a-Lago playing golf” and “spending time with his grandkids.” However, he says the campaign was born out of the country’s “need for a fighter right now” amid President Joe Biden‘s latest term.
“At the same time, you know, I am proud to stand by my father’s side. He’s a remarkable human being. I could not have a better father. He’s, I think, the best commander in chief this country’s ever had,” Eric Trump said. “Trust me, I will be by his side every single second of every single day.”
So far, Trump has won both the Iowa caucuses and New Hampshire primary. Fellow GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley vowed to remain in the race despite finishing behind Trump. After the Nevada caucus on Feb. 8, South Carolina’s Republican primary will be held on Feb. 24.
