AceShowbiz - Donald Trump's family is kicking off his new presidential era with immense enthusiasm. On the heels of NBC News projecting that the Republican candidate had defeated Democratic opponent Kamala Harris, Trump's granddaughter Kai Trump shared her elation online.
"No one works harder or cares more about the American people," Kai wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter) in the early hours of November 6. "Congratulations Grandpa, I love you!"
The competitive golfer and eldest child of Donald Trump Jr. and Vanessa Trump posted a photo with her grandpa from the election night watch party in West Palm Beach, Florida. Her excitement was palpable in her message, "The future gonna be fantastic."
Kai's support has been evident throughout Trump's campaign. At the Republican National Convention in July, she praised her grandpa, recounting endearing anecdotes that showcased a softer side to the former president.
"He gives us candy and soda when our parents aren't looking," she revealed, further adding that Trump is always keen to know about her school performance. According to her, he even printed her high honor roll certificate to show his friends out of pride.
The bond they share over golf also came to light, with Kai humorously noting how her grandpa calls her mid-school day to chat about their golf games. "Then, I have to remind him that I'm in school and I have to call him back later," she said, capturing their delightful conversations. It's clear that Trump's encouragement means a lot to Kai, as she articulated during the convention, "Obviously, he sets the bar pretty high, but who knows, maybe one day I'll catch him."
The newly-elected president's eldest daughter, Ivanka Trump, also took to the stage during his victory speech, marking her first appearance of the 2024 election cycle, further underlining the familial support that surrounds Trump.
