'The charisma of wet blanket': Twitter dunks on Donald Trump Jr.'s future political potential

Donald Trump Junior sidestepped a question about whether he has any political aspirations during a Newsmax interview on Saturday, suggesting that continuing with his life in New York City would be his future's path of least resistance.

"Real quick. You're good at this stuff, whether you like it or not. Okay. The combat, every single day. You're Donald Trump Jr. Are you gonna run for office someday?" anchor Greg Kelly asked.

"Oh God. You know, I don't know. Uh, you gotta want the day job too. I mean, I believe in this stuff. I fight for it. Like I said, it'd be a lot easier to, you know, be in New York and shut up and build buildings and not be a conservative and not talk about it," Junior replied. "Even if I was, and, uh, you know, it's just not the way I am. I'm, you know, I'm out there. I, you know, I have my own podcast on Rumble talking about these issues, uh, all the time. Just, you know, I, we gotta fight for it. It, it, I have those five kids. I gotta make sure, uh, the country we are leaving our children right now is in serious trouble. And, uh, you know, perhaps the events of the last week have shown us that, you know, perhaps we've even crossed that Rubicon. Uh, hopefully people realize that. But we, we have to salvage her. It's not about changing direction. We have to pull her back off the brink. Uh, and that's not gonna be easy. That's gonna require everyone, Greg."

Truth or consequences: "Ivanka, has removed herself from the inevitable crush that's coming for the Trumps. Ivanka & Jared don't need daddy's cash, Don Jr. needs daddy's money, Don Jr. will be able to Grift from the cult if he enters politics, just like daddy, hence Don Jr's motivation!"

Michelle: "Why is Jr. either red or purple, every time he's whining about something? If he runs it will be a waste of time."

— • 𝗖 𝗛 𝗘 𝗘 𝗞 𝗬 • —: "Jr's not building buildings. Collecting rents, maybe. And his many-tentacled MAGA product grift, media interviews, and many parties keep him busy. He loves talking, & talking & talking. His rabbity wiggly finger talk-at-you-show is def his fav."

Delphia for Democracy: "NEVER AGAIN."

NH Mountain Gal: "As far as I know, the Oval Office doesn't have a call button for cocaine refills."

Rebecca: "Can you see Junior at a podium tweaking giving a speech with arms flailing and finger quotes every other word. Sounds like a plan for sure."

James: "If he runs, he will pick a MAGA district in Florida. Junior would be the next Madison Cawthorn with more money. Run Junior, run."

William Buecker: "I predict his political career will be as meteoric as Andrew Giuliani's."

Warren: "He has the charisma of wet blanket and a blow problem. So he should easily win the GOP primary if he runs."
