A graduate of his fathers alma mater, the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, he went into the family business. Chris Cillizza, CNN editor-at-large, wrote: The easiest way to understand Donald Trump Jr is this: he is his father on steroids. With a lot more internet savvy.

Role: Born in Wilmington, North Carolina, the former TV producer is arguably the most prominent face of Trump campaign broadcasts. She is generally less combative than her husband, Eric, and more focused on building support among women. But last year she declared that German chancellor Angela Merkels decision to accept refugees from Syria in 2015 was the downfall of Germany, adding: It was one of the worst things to ever happen to Germany.

In 2018, she announced the closure of her namesake fashion brand amid concerns over a conflict of interest. Introducing her father at the 2016 Republican national convention, she said: Like many of my fellow millennials, I do not consider myself categorically Republican or Democrat. More than party affiliation, I vote on based on what I believe is right, for my family and for my country.
