The influence of "family politics" is expected to be strong even in the second term of Trump's administration.

Following Ivanka and her eldest daughter in the first period, this time, the eldest son, Trump Jr. couple, has emerged as a heavyweight.

The most notable couple in the Trump family in the second term of power are the eldest son, Trump Jr., and his fiancee, Kimberly Guilfoyle.

The hard-line conservative Trump Jr. has been reborn as the crown prince of "Make America Great Again" and "MAGA" with his cross-strait performance in the presidential race.

He became a kingmaker by pushing political newcomer JD Vance as vice president, and he was also deeply involved in the transfer of power and the appointment of a second administration.

Guilfoyle, a former Fox News anchor-turned-fiancée, was already on the list of spokespersons when Trump took power, and is expected to enter the White House for the second time.

Trump Jr. has announced his intention to join venture capital instead of the White House, but he is expected to exert enormous influence behind the scenes regardless of his position.

On the other hand, Ivanka and her eldest daughter, who were active as senior White House aides during Trump's first term, have withdrawn from politics.

The reason why it is stated that it is to be faithful to the family, but it is said that the calculation is based on the calculation that political activities are rather a loss.

This is because the fashion brand business, which had been doing well due to conflicts of interest, had to be closed and the private equity fund that is currently operating is inevitable.

The second son Eric and his wife, who helped him win re-election, are also expected to play an important role in the next administration under Trump's strong confidence.

As he has experienced a series of changes of his aides, some predict that President-elect Trump will focus more on "family politics" of hiring his family to important government positions.
