Donald Trump‘s organization appeared to snub his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., in its Father’s Day tribute. Instead, it shared a lengthy post praising Eric Trump, highlighting stories about his education and his role in managing his father’s businesses. The omission came as a surprise, given that Donald Trump Jr. holds a similar position within the organization yet was not included in the tribute.
Donald Trump’s father’s day post skips Donald Trump Jr.
The Trump Organization recently took to X (formerly Twitter) to honor Eric Trump on the occasion of Father’s Day. They added a few pictures of him alongside his father, Donald Trump. It included massive praise of Eric, with a link to a lengthy article that detailed various stories about his contribution to the family business and legacy, qualifications, and handling of fatherhood responsibilities. However, what caught many’s attention was that the organization didn’t pay any tribute to Trump’s elder son, who is also a father of five kids.
The attached article also mentioned that Eric handles everyday operations at the business while also playing a key role in architectural planning and global growth strategy. The post also credited Trump for playing a part in shaping and inculcating strong business and family values in his son.
The X post read, “This Father’s Day, we celebrate not just the man who inspired it all — but the son who showed up, every single day, and proved that the greatest gift a father can give isn’t a name or a fortune. It’s an example.” Continuing the words of appreciation, the post continued, “The empire that Donald J. Trump built did not survive four years of presidential service by accident. It survived because a son put on his hard hat and went to work. Eric Trump is not merely the beneficiary of his father’s legacy. He is its keeper, its engine, and its next great chapter.”
