30:07Now PlayingDonald Trump Jr. hinted that he may run for political office and try to succeed his father as US president.
“I don’t know, maybe one day,” Donald Trump’s eldest son said on Wednesday at the Qatar Economic Forum when asked if he would consider running for office.
Sitting alongside investor Omeed Malik, Trump Jr. joked about the claps in the auditorium: “It’s probably just a couple of people we know.”
Trump Jr. has spent most of his professional career working for the Trump Organization, which focuses on luxury real estate developments, and is an ardent defender of his father’s economic policies. He’s gained prominence in Trump’s second term and lobbied for JD Vance as vice president.
“I think my father has truly changed the Republican party,” Trump Jr. said. “It’s the America First party now, the MAGA party, however you want to look at it.”
While he has rarely spoken about his political ambitions, Trump Jr. has become more outspoken in recent years. He was a fixture on the campaign trail, making frequent TV appearances and giving a primetime speech at the Republican National Convention.
