Is ANOTHER Trump set to enter politics? Donald Jr tells supporters he's considering running to be Governor of New York

Donald Trump Jnr has told supporters he wants to follow his father into politics Reportedly said he was interested in running for office, such as governor of NY

He currently runs the family's business interests along with brother Eric

Donald Trump Jr has told supporters he wants to follow his father into politics and is interested in running for Governor of New York.

The 39-year-old spoke to members of the elite F6 Labs gun club in Hicksville, New York, and when asked about his political ambitions, he reportedly said he wanted to follow his father, President Donald Trump, into office.

Since his father was sworn in, Don Jr and his younger brother Eric, 33, have taken over the day-to-day business management of the Trump Organization.

If Don Jr did run for public office it would present a further headache as to who would take over the family business.

A guest at Tuesday's meeting told Page Six: 'Donald Junior said he is interested in running for office, such as Governor of New York, but the position of Mayor of New York would be less interesting to him.'

He added: 'Going back to doing deals is boring after 18 months. The politics bug bit me.'

Donald Jr apparently said he didn't want to be one of 100 Senators, nor a member of Congress.

Would rather have him and put Ivanka back in NY.

My favorite of the political Trump children, shall we say, and I wish him success.

But he needs to be in DC filling whatever need Trump has that has made him bring Ivanka and Jared in. Without that—and more importantly, Ivanka and Jared back in NY—I think Sr’s administration will be an anchor making Jr’s political aspirations impractical.

How’s this for more of ultra-liberal Ivanka’s shenanigans:

Wouldn’t work. Too many Democrat Kool-Aid drinkers in that state who buy this crap that his dad is Hitler.

There is too much Trump hate for him to win. Plus, he needs to think about the security of his kids. No, stay out of politics for the present time. Maybe in the future.

My impression is that he is the most conservative of the Trumps. Certainly more so than Ivanka from what I can tell.

Personally, I would rather see the Ivanka, Jared team back in New York with their liberal friends and send Don Jr. to Washington to work with his father, not in an office at the White House, maybe somewhere in Washington D.C. to do something to help along the Second Admenment or something like that...

The Ivanka and Jared team is just a bit to liberal to me, and in my eyes, Melania is the First Lady and should have an office, not the darling daughter...

It’s better than the Senate. Executive. It will scare the worry-warts in the Democrat party knowing this guy is ‘hovering’ in the background. As for a WH run down the road I say wait 30 years like the Donald.

Agree.

“Plus Tiffany is the only natural born citizen among the adult Trump children.”

False. All of Trump’s children were born in the USA & are natural born citizens.

“Ivana was not a citizen when they were born.”

Doesn’t matter. Donald Trump Jr was born in Manhattan, New York. His father is a natural born US citizen & was so at the time of his children’s birth. You claim is false.

Children of foreign nationals inherit the nationality of their foreign national parent(s).
Natural born citizen means born here of citizen parents.
No other possible citizenship(s).
Only when one cannot be anything else can one be a natural born citizen.

No foreign birth.
No foreign parent(s)
No foreign citizenship(s)
No foreign influence on the Presidency is what John Jay stated in a letter to George Washington as the reason for insisting on a natural born citizen.

Obama told us he was born a British subject.

Who believes Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Jay, Monroe, Madison, etc. would have found him to be a natural born citizen?
