Eric Trump Threatens Political Run: 'I Think I Could Do It'
Briefly

Despite the hope that the Trump political era might be concluding, Eric Trump has recently suggested the potential for his own political ambitions. In an interview with the Financial Times, he reflected on his family's experiences in politics and whether he would want his children to endure similar challenges. While previously it seemed like Donald Jr. or Lara might take the plunge, Eric’s interest marks a new chapter in the possibility of a Trump political dynasty. He also claimed the family has not benefitted financially from political involvement, a view that has sparked skepticism.
The real question is: 'Do you want to drag other members of your family into it?' Would I want my kids to live the same experience over the last decade that I've lived? You know, if the answer was yes, I think the political path would be an easy one, meaning, I think I could do it.
If there's one family that hasn't profited off politics, it's the Trump family. When you consider legal fees and 'opportunity cost,' the Trump family would have 'had many more zeros behind our name had my father not run in the first place.'
