She has continued to be talked about since the election of Donald Trump. In fact, Kai Trump even worked hard a few weeks before his grandfather's election as President of the United States, appearing several times alongside him during his campaign, whether on his social networks , or even during the Republican convention.
It was also during this last event that the 17-year-old young woman made a name for herself, making a three-minute speech in Milwaukee a few days after the assassination attempt against Donald Trump. An entry into American political life in which she highlighted her relationship with the man she considers a “normal grandfather”, before talking about “his side that people don't often see”.
“He gives us candy and soda when our parents aren't looking. He always wants to know how we are doing at school. When I was on the honor roll, he printed it out to show his friends how proud he was of me,” she says very comfortably on the microphone, under the proud gaze of the 47th President of the United States and several thousand Republican supporters.
Golf enthusiast
A remarkable speech in which she did her best to give a human image of the man she considers “a source of inspiration”, which did not displease her audience who started chanting “Kai 2040 “. Since then, the daughter of Donald Trump Jr. and Vanessa Trump has created a TikTok account which already has more than a million subscribers, through which she regularly appears alongside her grandfather as well as on golf greens, a passion that she shares with the latter.
Gifted in the sport, the eldest of Donald Trump's ten grandchildren is a member of the University of Miami women's golf team, having won a women's championship on her grandfather's private golf course in Palm Beach (Florida), as she revealed in an Instagram post on March 15.
“Golf has always played an important role in my life and is my greatest passion. I always aspire to be a leader and positive figure on and off the golf course. I hope to continue my athletic career at the college level,” says his bio on SportsRecruits, a platform dedicated to college athletes.
