Trump clan celebrates in Florida: The whole family united in triumph?

Donald Trump (78) won the election as the 47th President of the USA on Wednesday (November 6th). The Republican thus triumphed over his opponent Kamala Harris (60), who entered the race for the Democrats. Before the official results of the counting were known, he took the stage in Palm Beach, Florida, to give his victory speech to his gathered supporters. He was flanked by the entire Trump clan, who appeared to be united again in the face of their leader’s triumph. At least almost.

Shortly before half past two in the morning, Trump took the stage at the West Palm Beach Convention Center with his running mate JD Vance (40). With a beaming smile at his side was the former and future First Lady Melania Trump (54) and with a rather closed, serious expression on their face also their son Barron (18), who is also Trump’s youngest child. During the election campaign, the two of them, in contrast to other members of the Trump clan, did not push themselves much into the spotlight.

Little or nothing had been heard from his long-favored daughter Ivanka Trump (43) and her husband Jared Kushner (43) during the past few months and the intense election campaign period. The former “First Daughter” was his closest advisor in the White House during her father’s first term in office, and her husband held important positions in Trump’s political circle. However, both have completely withdrawn from politics in recent years and, according to their own statements, have ruled out a return to the White House.

But that didn’t stop the couple from being on stage with the other family members to celebrate the day in support of their father and father-in-law. Smiling and beaming with joy, they celebrated “the greatest political comeback in the history of the United States” alongside Trump’s “running mate” JD Vance and his wife Usha Vance (38).

On the other side of the speaker’s podium, the members of the Trump family had positioned themselves, who are now striving for significantly more political power in the clan and more in the public eye. Prominently placed behind Donald Trump was his daughter-in-law Lara Trump (42), who is married to his son Eric Trump (40). While the former television host is now the co-chair of the Republican National Committee, her husband is the vice president of the Trump Organization and primarily runs the operations of his father’s companies.

In addition to Lara and Eric Trump, two of Trump’s many grandchildren were also on stage: Tristan Milos Trump (13) and Kai Madison Trump (17). The latter had campaigned for her grandfather as the next US president with a speech during the election campaign. The siblings were accompanied on stage by their father Donald Trump Jr. (46), who was there with his fiancée Kimberly Guilfoyle (55). The journalist moderates the news program “The Five” on the conservative Fox broadcaster, while her partner prominently supported his father with campaign appearances in the swing states.

Trump’s youngest daughter Tiffany Trump (31) completes the clan together with her husband Michael Boulos (27). The couple is currently expecting their first child together, as Trump revealed at a campaign event in mid-October.

In addition to the family members and their respective partners, other people from the Trumps’ close environment were present on stage: including Melania’s father Viktor Knavs (80) and Dana White (55), the president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, who is a big Trump supporter applies.

Donald “Don” Jr., Ivanka and Eric come from Trump’s marriage to Ivana Trump (1949-2022), to whom he was married from 1977-1990. Tiffany comes from Trump’s second marriage to actress Marla Maples (61) from 1993 to 1999. Donald Trump shares his youngest son Barron Trump with his current wife (married since 2005), Melania Trump. He also has a total of ten grandchildren to date.

While the Trump clan presented a united front for the election victory in Florida, there is also a dissenting voice from the family circle that openly speaks out against the 78-year-old’s political power. Mary L. Trump, the only niece of the former and future US president, is also considered one of his harshest critics. : “I’m so sorry. I had a better opinion of us.”
